Default Black Stone Guards
Replaced my stone guards with black ones I ordered from Suncoast. Let me know what you think. Took it to a local high end body shop to get them installed since Suncoast recommended professional install. Shop manager did it himself and refused to charge me. I bought him a gift card for his favorite restaurant! There are still good folks in the world!

I've been considering doing the same to my silver 997. It looks great, but what really sets these black stone guards off is some black Fuchs style wheels. I hope to do both at the same time.

Looks great, I'm going to do the same with my 997. I think the matching convertible top makes them look even better.

Thanks! I'm anxious to see what it looks like with my black OZ wheels this winter!
I think it would look really good on your red!

Looks great... They always remind me of the Dorsal fin on a shark.

Have a white GTS cab, was gonna get the MagnaGrafik black ones, but do I do matte or gloss? Most of these look like it is matte?

Little off topic with my 930 but black stone guards just look like serious business.

I highly recommend the black oem Porsche speedster stone guards that Suncoast sells. They're thick which protects good and makes installation easy.
