I'm going to do the mirrors on mine in carbon fiber also. I saw the ducts done on a car at sharkwerks a couple weeks ago and didn't like it. If you are looking for the 997 look they make a carbon fiber splitter for the turbo duct that is not bad. But hey, its your car, do what you like!

Okay, I'll take the other side.....

When done tastefully with a car that may have repeating themes of black or dark gray.....I think the carbon fiber looks good. Here are some
pictures of my car (which to some may look ghetto) but I happen to love the look.

The Carbon Fiber splitters for the side vents DO look really cool, though, just not the ENTIRE duct since that breaks up the smooth lines on the car IMO.

AboxsterS is infamous around these parts
Does anyone know where to get the splitters themselves? Eric at Bumperplugs used to have them but no longer does...

I believe NR automotive accessories, a sponsor on here, has the splitters available in carbon fiber.
