How common was this as an option? Non-existent? I hate the ****ty leatherette visors in my S. Guessing finding these is next to impossible.

I'd share that guess. Until you posted this, I didn't even know that was an option. 986 731 980 06 or 986 731 981 06 are the listed part numbers (with various letter codes for colors)

I know I googled just looking for part nos and started seeing them in metropol and boxster red for like $2k - absolutely insane obviously. Didn’t see black but I’m sure still stupid expensive.

Interesting. Drivers side $1500 regardless of color. Passenger side roughly half as much, black more expensive than all the other colors.

porsche, why the **** do you hoard parts like this?!

Would suggesting that the original covers be reupholstered by a, you know, upholstery shop, be too obvious?

Might save a few bucks. Get the color you like. In leather, vinyl, or other covering.

Too obvious?

I'm not a fan of the look of custom parts; if someone was established that had reproduced these I'd totally be into it.

I might run it by my upholstery guy though just to see what he thinks.

So, NOT too obvious, thanks man.

Good. A member with a sense of humor... too.

I'd be interested in what price your guy quotes for the job.

Cheers!

Replaced mirror cover, looks great.

Removed sticker, a bit more goo gone and it’s super And makes me happy
I thought about leather sun visors as well.
crazy expensive. So I just removed the stickers and they look great.

Probably best as said above, if you want leather, to have an upholstery shop recover them in leather.
