Adding this post link for 997 Turbo folks...

https://www.6speedonline.com/forums/...d.php?t=117595

In short, why has no one made something like this for the 997 Turbo? Pic below is from the Porsche website (Cayenne "personalization" option)... would this exact part even fit on a Turbo? Assuming no... Tuners, any thoughts?

Porsche, are you paying attention?

I believe that Gembella has done something like that for the TT.

Well... kinda - I thought the same thing, but take a close look at what Gemballa did (below). They redo the rear facia completely, has a huge cut out for mesh structure, then adds some round tips framed w/ silver rings... I don't think their interpretation is quite as clean/good looking, and is much more extensive a mod (a very "involved" rear facia)... was thinking more along lines of just having the simple CGT style tips that could bolt on like the Cayenne ones pictured above.

I like the look as well. Maybe a dealer here could jump in and let us know if they would fit. Most likely not, since Porsche should have it listed as a 997TT option.
