I added a poll to gauge interest. If the bumperette delete inserts are any guide I'll just half that number for actual interest and plan on that number. If you've already expressed interest by comment to this thread, can you click on the poll as well please?

Thanks

P.S Waiting to hear back from a local fabricator so that I can just pick up test prints. It should speed up the iteration time as the bumperette delete inserts just took too long to develop for the market that was in it.

The 964 door pockets are the same as the 993 ones, right?

Mine aren't broken, so if anyone can show a picture of a broken one maybe that would help me keep an eye out for a potential future issue.

Don't want to put the cart before the horse on these until I start getting test prints back and see where the problems lie.

New Zealand is hardly "parts unknown" - we even provided one of Porsche's Le Mans winning drivers last year & 2nd place . You might send 1 package with 2 sets to either Steve (Spokes) or me. we can then distribute amongst ourselves.

Mine are broken and warped. Can they straighten the "bowing" too?

Given that these parts are much more "practical" in nature and will likely require less skill for installation, I think you'll see a different proportion of interested vs committed.

Let's see
