Looking at complete trim kits and notice the OEM Porsche for ~ $425 https://www.ebay.com/itm/284685148791 and apparently an aftermarket for ~$250 https://www.ebay.com/itm/174718331159 Anyone here have first hand experience with the latter? TIA

Found some on parts geek I think it was 217.00 with clips. I went the 450 route once and lost it on my first trip out.

Wow they are now expensive. I bought mine from 914rubber but I think it was just Porsche sold by them. Think it was around 200

I did the same.

@Mikey914 Can you confirm Mark, one way or the other. TIA

We get ours from the OEM manufacturer. We had actually made the extrusion to form theses, but the labor to do so wound up being more than just buying them.

I know we are awaiting another shipment in (same as Stoddard).
Should be in any time now.

Thx Mark. I'll buy them from you once they arrive. BTW, I'm working up an order with 914rubber and noticed there are several items that are "Not available". Hopefully this is a temporary "supply chain issue".
Mikey914
Actually hit me up on items you are looking for. With the new ERP system I've been noticing that if a nut or bolt are not showing in stock, when we make and put the primary item up, it will not re-list.

I’m about ready to buy one also. So, should I go online and order one and just wait? Assuming you don’t hit my card until you ship?
PanelBilly
Are they still shipped folded in half?

@Mikey914 Take a look at my wishlist on your site. It's not complete yet but I hope to have everything nailed down within 2 weeks. beerchug.gif

Allen, click on the link that Mark posted above and log in. Then there is a box to request notification once they arrive. beerchug.gif

We are also bringing in the official Porsche ones too. Mostly as the supply we are receiving from our other source has been spotty.
Root_Werks
Been waiting for these to come back in stock at 914Rubber as well. I'll take a set when you get restocked.

Good question,
We actually have a special reinforced box we ship these in. Makes it pretty obvious if there is a claim, and takes some effort on their parts to f these up.
mepstein
The two sets I ordered from 914rubber came well packed in their reinforced box. I keep them in the box in storage. Very satisfied.

Nobody shoot me, please...But is there a black trim option out there anywhere?

Going with the restomod/Subaru option, and was hoping to stay away from chrome...

Have them powder coated. I haven't seen any other finishes.

Just buy good used, scuff and spray.
