Does one omit the rock protectors from the fenders with these ducts?

You are more than welcome, we will have a good time. Might be your wingman on an autobahn or two with my 993

That is just so modest - I doubt very much most of us would have the skills, let alone the ***** to do this DIY. Better than a professional

George,
My windows go in this week and the panel shop what me there to make sure all is done right.
I was more than happy to be available, I want the windows installation to be perfect.
Not sure how the window installer is going to like it when the windows are to be installed as per the Porsche manual.
Thanks,
