You'll probably have to do what I did- I couldn't find any pics of them on a green 997: Buy a set of magnetic ones and see how they look. If you like the look, get the "permanent" ones and sell the magnetic ones to another rennlister.

Anyone have any idea (or can photoshop for me?) what a set of matte black magnetic guards would look like on a black C4S? I'm wondering whether it would look kind of neat -- a subtle play on light resulting an an appearance of even wider body, or it would just look silly....?

Man, your car looks awesome.

I found a couple of black cars with matte black stone guards. It's definitely a subtle look that I think looks good, but it's all a personal preference with these guards. I like them.

Have you thought about adding GT2 side skirts? They are on the GTS models too and they fit on our wide body 4S cars... They look good with the stone guards and I love them on mine. just a thought ;^)

Magnagrafix has some "Speedster" Carbon fiber magnetic stone guards for 997.2 up on their catalog. Anyone actually seen those on a car? Could look amazing or tacky... not sure.

went to order mine and Magnagrafix recommend the "speedster" style for my 997, he claims they will completely cover the clear ones from the factory... will post and let you all know when they come in

That's what I ordered, and they were close, but it wasn't exact. But, it was close enough that it wasn't all that noticeable unless you looked up close.

Sorry, just to confirm you ordered the regular OR the "Speedsters"? Hoping the Speeders cover the whole factory one... Thanks

Big fan of black stone guards - have them on my 08 C4S
Other mods:
black + red C4S trunk badge
GT3 stick shift / alcantara **** + steering wheel
Kept the rest mostly stock on purpose as the look is perfect in my opinion, but the stone guards brought it all together for me - even with the polished (not black) OE turbo wheels.
Hope everyone likes!
