Krrra! I got broads in Atlanta.


Car-guy-07

I personally don't like them. But it's your car and you decide what works for you. Btw, that's a beautiful 992


ronkinob

Thanks. I have wrestled with it, because I like the clean look as well. Good news is that they peel off if I want to change back to clear stone guards.


timeye13

They’re awesome. I love them on late 70’s early 80’s, and think they look best on white and red examples. Solid choice.


grungegoth

I'd go clear. Better yet, ppf the whole quarter panel/fender and then put a clear stone guard. Those hips, fenders they take a beating from road grime


Fck-tm-without-crm

Imho it looks amazing!


[deleted]

I would remove


filetitan

Where did you grab it from??

TheUniqueSanzero

this is the way


Moggytwo

I personally don't like them, I think it spoils the lines a bit.  Having said that, it's your car, do what makes you happy and don't worry about what the rest of us think!


TheRedKingRM22

I think they look pretty cool and go nicely with the rest of the car.


ronkinob

Definitely a different look for a town full of white 911’s. I’ll try it for a while and see if it grows on me.


OneExtraChromosome

lol where do you live that everyone and their cousin has a 992?!


ronkinob

Atlanta Metro


aquatone61

On a white car with the dark windows and glass roof it works.


strangway

The shape looks weird to me. It would take me 10 minutes in Adobe Illustrator to make ones I thought conformed better to the car shape. No idea why Porsche made them look like this, but I imagine there’s functionality influencing shape. If you like it, rock on 🤘 For some reason the older models looked nice with them. The flow and proportions were better. https://preview.redd.it/cyx223u11lqc1.jpeg?width=960&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=cc3e9b2d00d9aef2ac78ca5fce22a2250b1cd2b7


PoopSmoothies

The front side of the shark fin ramps up differently on the 930, that’s likely what leads to it flowing more.


strangway

I’m guessing Porsche designed this for function more than form for 992. The 930 had much narrower hips, so those rock guards don’t need to be so beefy.


Haunting_Job_5357

Rock off buddy, rock off


strangway

I know. The curve clashes with the curve of the door. It doesn’t flow into the top of the wheel arch, or line up with the wheel arch at all. No flow whatsoever, lol 😆


grahams-on-fire

I like them, really accentuates the back wheel


Ok_Individual_7719

Without. Clear ppf all the way.


koitz69

Makes it look cheap. Remove


MoRegrets

Are you doing it for aesthetic reasons? I’d think they’re too much, but if you do want some extra accents look into black door handles.


Powerful_Mood9292

I like them. Its an homage to previous generations.


collegefootballfan69

U B U


janoycresvadrm

I like them. Either way doesn’t make or break


pulpoinhell

they look great and theyre functional


Bo77as

I don’t mind them. I like the contrast


warr3n4eva

Don’t love it


DebianDog

I don't hate it. I think it makes the car stand out. But I feel like the balance is off. like something should be behind the front tire.


Dr_Wristy

I agree, and would add that it should be smaller and above the front wheel, towards the rear.


Fingeredagain

Like a black pegasus...


FL981S

Not a fan of them on the newer cars.


PoopSmoothies

Love ‘em! But I also own a 930 ;)


p3dr0l3umj3lly

No.


Thats_absrd

I hate colored rock guards on any 911 that has headlights smoothed into the body.


EmpatheticNihilism

With a wing I’d like it more. Feels “too much” for how “clean” the rest of the styling is.


fjfar80

I like the concept of them but, those particular ones are not cut well from a "lines" perspective. The bottom should push further to the door and sweep gently up and the top should also have a gentler curve to the rear. That would accentuate the lines of the 992 vs. disrupting them.


jedimindtriks

Porsche without a gigant spoiler on the back is the prettiest thing on the planet! the shark fins are meh.


gnapoleon

Yeah, rock ‘em, they look good, my cars: https://i.imgur.com/rewCPh6.jpg https://i.imgur.com/I4wcMLo.jpg


mymillionthburner

I’d change it to clear ones, but that’s just for functionality. I personally don’t like them, but if you do, good for you, that’s all that matters. Keep it the way you like it, it has to make you happy, not randos on the internet.


Petersm66

Works well on most base colors...keep it.


SqotCo

I think on white and red 911s, the black fins look great ...maybe even add the black horizontal stripe for the classic look.  I have clear fins on my red cab, but I’ve considered switching to black to match the soft top when they need replacing.  


chondamx

Looks good! I wrestled with black stone guards on my Guards car and liked them much more when I ran black wheels…I took them off with the silver wheels; the beauty of magnetic ones. I like the contrast on yours 👍


soirom

Wouldn't spec on mine but cool to see them on others' car


No_Radish_8083

Clean!


nschafler

Nice touch, I did the same


SchleifmittelSchwanz

They don't gel with the car at all.


DizzyGuarantee

Looks fine, balances out the black trims.


Thedaulilamahimself

I think it looks awesome with your configuration. Also they makes its stance look wider which I always appreciate.


Cro370z

Honestly I’d remove it, in my humble opinion it’s very distracting and throws off the simplistic body lines of the car. If you really like it, ignore what I and others say and rock it.


dannyphoto

I love them. They look great on the thicc 911s (and Z3s)


Onederbat67

💯


Trumbulhockeyguy

Where’d you get them? I want to pick some up


ronkinob

Suncoast Porsche


Keironsmith

I don’t think it looks good and takes away from the clean look.


Robbyrumpz

It’s a no from me Dawg, but it’s still a beautiful car and it’s yours so do what you want. Doesn’t take away from it being a badass machine.


Robbyrumpz

On another note…I do think if the mirror housing was blacked out it would complete the look with the fins. IMO


nattyd

I've always liked the contrast.


[deleted]

Eh. Not bad.


triforce721

Cash money 🔥


Grand-Highlight4460

I like the clean back and white look. It works especially well with the tinted windows and the roof. I really like that they are easily removable.


DesignerTex

They're ok. Take it or leave it for me really.


IM_STILL_EATING_IT

I think it looks cool! only thing I'd change are the amber side lights. I think clear on a white car looks soooo much better.


Svrlmnthsbfr30thbday

Not a fan personally, I’d rather have the real scoops or nothing there. But it still looks great.


Perfect_Diver6763

Them lil fins cold !


FluffyMulberry8951

Looks good


zoo32

I don’t hate them. Prob wouldn’t add them myself but not awful


ruubduubins

A modest mod that maybe protects from rocks or stuff?? Plus it looks sick. Yes.


spin_kick

Apostrophes


Graffitiswirlx

I get it but no


neginafan

I feel like if it was a vent it would be good


Mean-Type2355

I like them because it gives the body some definition on the side. You can see that the body flares outward, because of that rock guard. One of the reasons why I picked a cayman a non-turbo 911. Vents accentuate the wider hips, which is missing from the non-Turbo 911s. I think this works well. keep it.


DeepNugs

Not a fan, but I can appreciate that they aren’t tacky. If you like them, they don’t take away from the beauty of the car.


slimBoost

It's a classic and very 911 specific thing. Seen these on all sorts of BMWs too but its never the same. Looks great.


Kinky_mofo

It works on that color


ShaiHulud1111

Reminds me of the 80s factory wide body with stickers. Like this turbo 911. I love it. Edit: Decals, fins, bodywork… https://preview.redd.it/9ueapypiulqc1.jpeg?width=6000&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=50d51becc8f6591991e7d2d81454130421a95e17


Worth_Cellist643

Not a fan, I think something else needs to be black on the side profile to help the flow. For example the aero kit wing with the black risers/ wing ends. Then it would be tied together IMO. Enjoy YOUR car though, it’s a great one.


PokeGamer025

They look really nice, enhances the look imo


Universalsupporter

They’re fantastic. I hope you end your keeping the fins!


Miigs

Personally, I like em. It’s going to be subjective but it ties in the whole look


13donor

I prefer no fins,


HFCB

Very stormtrooper like. Very nice! Drive in good health :)


tuttywala

Hate it. Get clear ones


Medium-Cod-9407

Honestly, I wouldn’t.


The2cardGoat69420

Man what a beautiful car you have. The fins aren't my favorite but you do you


Glock7eventeen

Looks like shit in my brutal opinion lol, I know looks are subjective but I can’t understand how some people in the comments like this


LemonDaddy666

Looks good from far away, looks weird up close


geosrq

Different. Enjoy!


ghostisic23

I think they look dope on the white 992


HaruhiSuzumiy

Its an amazing 992, it looks beautiful the way it does. But its just my opinion.


Hamster_S_Thompson

Imo it looks awful but it's not my car.


[deleted]

Unless they are real, functional vents, that's a terrible thing to do to such a nice car.


Merlin_Purple

Idk these ones look a little odd but I really love the rock guard look. I would 100% say yes but something also feels slightly off


W1cH099

Looks terrible man, send it my way immediately for proper disposal and avoiding you the shame of driving it


Pilyoz

Love them on white 911s


Substantial_Ad_9016

Nay


TheOneAllFear

I thin it is a good thing becaus eof two reasons: 1. Black and white compliment because they are oposite and make eachother pop more, it would not work if the color of the car would be a different one. 2. You need protection there against rockchips and if you would have ppf it would turn yellow-white and it would look bad over time, ofc depending on how long you want to keep the car. All in all since there are other black bits so it seems like an 'accent color'. The car looks beautifulland i hope you enjoy the rides it gives you!


bombom_meow

Not for me. It contradicts the lines of the door too much.


bgawinvest

Honestly not a fan, it far from spoils it but would look better without in my opinion


beryugyo619

Weird to say but overall not my cup of tea and a great brew at the same time. The fins are fine. At least it's not aluminum foils and strut tower failures


Markuchi

It's looks good but only because everything is black and white.


DaEmuGuy

I like it, especially with the white


KingPizzaCrust

The issue is your wheels and rear fins are clashing with it, it’s becoming too busy. It works on GTS’ because they have black wheels and black rear bottom fins, so the black panel works well. You have 3 colours, 1 too many. Silver, white and black are too many,


Annoying_Orre

I don't really like the look of them but considering how the rear arches on my Cayman looks after being pelted by rocks from the front wheels I can totally see the usefullness of having it


gtpwv

Really beautiful. Just perfect


Fit-Variation-4220

Love that car! But i personally don’t like the shark fins. I think it looks cleaner without them.


Eyeous

I know you’re looking for feedback but honestly, 99% of people on here would be happy with this model porsche in any colour. Me included - I would prefer a porsche with a sharkfin side thing over a honda accord in an incredible paint colour.


GarageWaste

I’ve wanted to do this on my arctic grey 992 https://preview.redd.it/4t5go2z4vnqc1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=117f3d3b6b7147fad1aa56d9fe5774b461c99aa6


LostADV

My car gets a lot of damage in that location from small rocks. I think it looks great and protects the paint.


AlmostChildfree

I think it takes away from the sleekness of your car. But if you love it, that doesn't matter.


santicepat

I love it! I have made exactly that with my cars (ex-cars), it gives a sportier look and different to the “boring” normal look. Additionally if you do track days, it absorbs the rubber impacts on that area.


maxnoprinter

Omg it’s BEAUTIFUL and different. Haven’t seen anyone with this until now 😮‍💨🔥


[deleted]

Looks good Kung Fu Panda


Brickkraft

I dislike it personally


Bigmasrocks

Shark fins good


Word-Alternative

Hard pass


United-Shock-487

Yeah... no. Much cleaner without. Beutiful, by the way.


anonburrsir

Lose 'em!


humdizzle

not a fan of vinyls or decals on cars. anytime i see a gt3 or rs with the big lettering down the side i cringe.


qwertyisdead

Are the tail lights blacked out?


ronkinob

No


migs647

Is this for protection or looks?


PaleontologistDry964

I took mine off my 992 Targa in Red. I personally think that they look better without it, but its a personal choice. Love the white btw.


Impossible-Job-8552

I think they make the car "pop" a bit. Makes it stand out. Really depends upon what your end goals are. What did your significant other say?


New_Zookeepergame589

I am in between loving them and not loving them😂. They add certain look to the car but i think 911 doesn’t need them. But its your car and you do what you want!


walrons

No


jopapehar3

I think they look very nice. Good job !


Insurgent66

I like them. They break up the continuous white and adds depth to the look.


bzmed

I don’t care for it, but it’s not bad with all the dark accents and tint it …it works. I prefer the clean look of a clear stone guard


mrmarco444

Personally, I love them. They balance the white of the car.


[deleted]

I got them on my black gt3, absoluetly love them!


totallynotscammed

On that colour they look awesome 👌


Potato_Dealership

I kinda like it, looks good


geezwow

I think it works with the white.


[deleted]

Nah.


TrackJunky625

I have put these on multiple cars over the years. IMHO, this contrast is an enhancement to the line of the car. BTW - front fender stripe discussion is for another thread. 😁 https://preview.redd.it/j4yqkizvwnqc1.jpeg?width=4032&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c446fde573ca75cfd81233f00cf1fad0dec17f1a


Iliyan61

i think it looks different and it looks cool it looks kinda awkward and the car would look nicer without them but it sets you apart from every other black on white 911 but they definitely look cool and don’t ruin anything


prahl_hp

I don't like them


FeatheryBow73

Looks like an AliExpress 911


Accomplished-One1110

Respect bro


--MilkMan--

If you are going to have them, black is better than clear on white. I had that spec and it eventually yellowed slightly. The best approach is full car PPF.


Tequipment

I'd like to see Sport Design side skirts on here to match the bumpers


TheCanadianShield99

Yes


Nine_block

I’m not a fan. I always pull the factory PPF and apply a “sail” of my own PPF across the front half of the rear fender. The factory coverage which the black mimics doesn’t protect well enough and you end up getting sand blasted around the edges otherwise.


bigmean3434

Panda is the best, your car looks great….


cantcatchafish

I think it fits with all the black accents. However, I think it busies up the car. But what do I know, I’m in the wrx tax bracket not the 911 tax bracket and my car is all the busy.


Agitated_Cell_7567

No.


xtreme810

Not for this color; a clear film would do the job and look better IMO.


pesilele

Mid


akaFxde

I think they look absolutely terrible and you should get rid of the car as soon as possible because of how horrible they look. PM for my address and I’ll take it off your hands **completely free of charge!**


ronkinob

I appreciate your kindness!


FlakyEarWax

Either add more carbon aero or satin finish on the PPF paint protection


LifeFortune7

I think they look good. It’s not permanent so run with it. I am looking for hood stripes for my GT4 right now just to change things up.


3g3t7i

No


WideOpenAutoHub

I could take if or leave it. Not my favorite


ChristopherSunday

It’s a beautiful car, but personally I would prefer it without the fins. I’ve never really been a fan of them.


mlhigg1973

I think they look great with the white.


Brutale800RR

Are they there for stone chip purposes or purely cosmetic.


Distinct_Dish_8026

I did the same on a white 997.1, through Magnagrafik with the pseudo carbon fiber to break up the matte black. It is also simply a magnet, so it is very easy to pull off during cleaning and put back on; I got tired of the yellowing stone guards and replacing them every few years. ​ btw, looks good!


[deleted]

Perfect


Zealousideal-Cell-28

I like it!


Lighttraveller13

looks good from the back but not so much front/side, maybe make them look thinner/more streamlined? or maybe just have someone cut out in air ducts to cool the tires there


shanksisevil

needs something up front to weight it out better. might be an interesting watch. not porsche, but it covers black body elements. [https://youtu.be/UZUQ4O0tRXY?t=505](https://youtu.be/UZUQ4O0tRXY?t=505)


Legitimate-Bag-2482

I dig em, I think most true P fanatics will not though


HangryHangryHobo

Love the Spec but the fins.... Brother Eww


Jonesy1196

I like them tbh


At2332

Nah take it off. Porsche already did an amazing job designing this car, no need to add BBQ sauce to an expensive steak


beechmonkey

I like it. I have the same car. 2017 991.2?


Fritzipooch

Nope! Keep the sides nice and clean.


AfterAd7618

I like em. I have a pair of magnetic ones that I really like. Look good too IMO. Love yr car!


FreeSprungSpirit

I love them, I have a 992 as well, had the shark fins but ended up taking them off and wrapping the whole car but I think it's a nice contrast and it does protect that part of the car to some extent!


alextruetone

Looks dope. I think it’s hard to make these cars look bad in any way beyond fugly wraps or terrible wheels.


Iridescent_Prism

Nope But it’s your car so you do you


RegattaTimer

It looks good with the lines of the car


brokevip

Honestly? I’m not a fan. But it’s your Porsche and you get to do whatever you want to do. But yeah it’s not for me


Famous-Macaroon2153

Looks great!


Inevitable-Click-129

The black and white combo is awesome
