Can't find it on the configurator. Is this aftermarket?

Check out DB Carbon´s... Custom manufactured as well possible to match Porsche´s new exterior twill weave (like on 3rd picture below, the matt finished one), standard we manufacture in 991 series plain weave to match interior parts.

What a waist, why not make them also incorporate wind buffeting design too!

Thought you did not need the wind buffering with the GT3 mirrors...

In California we are required to track with windows down. At 150+mph, there was pretty severe buffeting until I got these carbon window triangles.


Buffeting was worse on my 991 Turbo S but never plan to track it again.

I put the Awe Tuning version on my TTS for the same reason. It works great at 165+.

Are they just regular plastic? If so I'm curious the price. Seems like it should be less than $50. The carbon fiber pieces I got were obviously pretty expensive ($250) but hey it's carbon fiber.

From AWE's site: "UV-stabilized injection-molded plastic" - $86.95
Agree on price point, but hey maybe UV stabilizing is a b i g step.
IMO Porsche woulda-coulda-shoulda remedied this already.

Yep, they seemed expensive for plastic, but then I considered the tooling, molding, testing...even the finish looks like OEM Porsche plastic. Those reasons, and it works as promises, and I'm good with the price. Plus, I'm honestly not a fan of CF just for the sake of the looks of it. If you are going for taking weight out of some big heavy part, fine, but don't do it just for faux looks.
