I have a 2018 Panamera and if this does what your trying to make it do, I would be in the market as well. Make sure you get a pending patent for it so if it starts to take off you'll make a few bucks. Looks good in flat black and that should work for almost any car color. Good luck.

@Tom please count me in and let me know how much $$$$
Eric
They will be free to people with over 104 posts on Carpokes.
I dunno if I’ll have 104 posts by the time these are ready, so please let me know how much and where to send money! They look great! Especially the one in the first picture of the thread.

Looks like this thread is alive again with grinsandsmiles on his way to 104 posts , ha. Any update Tom, as these air deflectors are an absolute must especially for those who track their cars since both windows down is a requirement. I was absolutely shocked at the major decrease in interior buffeting once installed and the Cayman has always been horrendous in that area.
I did get the AWE wind deflectors due to a post here on Carpokes. I liked the idea of an installed one after seeing one missing from a student's Cayman at a track event -- he said it blew off on the highway. It will be interesting to know if Tom is still working on this, so thanks for bringing the post back up grins.

Yeah, I kind of dropped the ball on this after never getting fully satisfied with the design. I have a few more years of 3D modeling under my belt now, so might have to take another swing at it. Anyone know if the 992.2 pieces are the same as my 992.1?

I just took delivery of a 992.2… and it looks very similar. What’s the best way to confirm?

I am in for a pair of them for my 992.1, and since Tom is making them I am sure they will work well, and look nice, too!
