Default Black Stoneguards on Basalt

Changed the clear to Black after seeing a 930 with them.

I like 'em. Especially with the classic Fuchs.

I'm liking the solid color. Not an issue on a black car but I've seen the clear ones turn yellowish on Carrera White after a year.

Perhaps Porsche should design-in a protective panel since the protruding flare is a known problem for chips.

Those look right at home on a Basalt Black car...not so much on the lighter colors, IMO.

Yeah, mine are taking on a "tinge" of yellow against the silver; anyone with an arctic silver switch to black?

I like that look. I'm replacing mine and will now look at doing the same.

I've been wondering how these would look on Basalt Black. Looks much better than I would have imagined! Now tempted to do this myself.

Can you post a picture with your entire car with the new stone guards? Would love to see how the curves of the whole car flows with the flat black on the sides.
