GT Design Carbon Side Diffusers

Hi Everyone,

We've recently joined this forum but we've been developing parts and working on Porsches for the last couple months. GT Design is the product brand under Go Tuning Unlimited, which has been around since 2006 specializing in distribution of ultra high end Japanese parts. We're currently developing new unique and original, products for a variety of Porsche applications, no copies or replicas here.

We’re proud to introduce the GT Design Porsche 997 Carbon Fiber Side Diffusers. Similar to custom side diffusers seen on Porsche Cup Cars, these side are a great aerodynamic and cosmetic addition to the side profile of any narrow body 997 Porsche. Based on aerodynamic theory, the side diffusers improve aerodynamic efficiency on the side of the car by smoothing out turbulent air generated by wider aftermarket wheels and tires and air coming out from underneath the car. The simple yet aggressive design only extends 1" past the outer most edge of the factory side for minimal obstruction but with the slope of the body the side diffuser gives the car a lower and wider look and also lines up with the outer edge of most aftermarket wheels for a matched appearance. The GT Design Side Diffusers were designed from scratch in-house from a blank slate specifically for the 997 body. They feature a shape contoured design to fit perfectly flush against the body for ease of alignment and installation without any measuring or guessing. The side diffusers install simply using one strip of double sided tape, used to prevent scratching the factory side skirt, and 3 small screws. Installation is completely reversible without leaving any visible damage behind. Use of factory jack points if retained and each side weighs 1 lbs.

GT Design side diffusers are manufactured in Southern California using the highest quality materials. They are produced using Hexcel certified carbon fiber for added strength and durability and zero shrink TP high solid resin molds that are autoclave grade rated to 485F. The finish is a high polished UV inhibiting gel coat that protects the carbon from damage due to sun exposure. The surface is smooth and solid unlike many cheap products produced overseas that have wavy/rippled porus panels that require much prep work and application of a clear-coat. Side diffusers come pre-drill for installation with stainless steel screws and pre-applied 3M double-sided tape.

Official sale thread will be in the vendor classified section.

Very nice. Will there be a non-carbon option for cheaper? I have a black car and would prefer to have painted exterior parts over carbon. For me, black doesn't have enough contrast for carbon.

The FRP (fiberglass) version can be produced but will only be $100 less and weigh .5 lbs more per side. They are also not normally stock and will require 2-3 days to produce them.

Not at the moment. We do plan on producing parts for the widebody models after we've completed what we have planned for the narrow bodies.

I actually wanted to order a set, I've sent an email 3 days ago, no response.
Not looking good as far as customer service.
