Question 997.2 GT3 "accessories" for 997.x

http://www.porschetuningmag.com/moto...che-equipment/
Starting in September, Dr. Ing. h.c. F. Porsche AG, Stuttgart, is offering a new product line for retrofitting motorsport accessories on all Type 997 models of the GT3 and GT3 RS. Using these special components, the enthusiast is able to further customise the exterior of his car with weight-optimised materials such as titanium and carbon also used in motorsport.
The titanium-coloured second-generation 19-inch GT3 wheels complete with central locking are likewise a new feature in the range. The wheel bolts are made of forged aluminium and finished in red eloxy-plating.
All motorsport accessories are available starting immediately in all Porsche Centers worldwide except China.
Any other news on these? (my only interest is in those central locking wheel thingys) ...and if one fits the 997.1 GT3/RS - should it not [almost] fit any 997.1 Carrera? (assuming they let you even order it )

thank porsche for their consideration but i'd rather, for example, pay $1000 for a misha replica bumper than 2 or 3 times more for factory...

Ha, forget about the wheels! Just setting up the hubs to accomodate the central locks is going to cost thousands!

Interesting, these parts aren't available in China! I guess they are counterfitting them already.
