I can't believe demand is low for these, its one of my favorite mods to my car as the bumperettes really bother me.
I agree with the sentiment but they really don't bother some people, I guess if you grew up in NA and they were always there, maybe they seem more normal. I grew up in Ireland and though we didn't see many Porsches, the images of the cars just didn't have the chin warts. Any, I made them originally to fix my issue with the car's design. I never expected there to be a big market for them which is why I only get small batches made from time to time and with ever-decreasing regularity.
The pictures are great and swayed my decision to get some. Look forward to them.
My car is currently at the paint shop getting the rear bumper resprayed to fix some scrapes along the drivers side as well as the mirrors painted for road rash and a bad blend on prior paint on the front fenders of the car to be corrected. While in there, the paint shop said they would pull the bumperettes and shoot them again to give me a better finish than I managed to achieve with a rattle can.
So far, for me, this is just the absolutely most seamless install I have seen. Made me a little jealous! But it also means that it can be achieved and I have enough sets to practice on till I get it 100% correct.

Thanks! To be honest I am OCD x10 so I literally spent 1/2 a day achieving this state. Not that I fully disliked the bumperettes, I just think this gives the car a seamless look without having to go out and spend big $$$$ on a new Euro Bumper and and Paint! Pretty much a no brainer in my opinion. Most people wouldn't even notice. Also this mod can be reversed very easily when you decide to sell. My car is 9.5 / 10 in terms of condition so I wanted to achieve the same result. I got the Clears from Suncoast. Just FYI the Clears from Suncoast DON'T include the correct bulbs for USA Cars. Pep Boys or any other shop will have them.
