I have a brand new set of Blackmill Performance Wind Buffeting/Diffuser. Unopen box, hence the stock picture.

I originally purchased this for my 2023 Cayman GT4 but chose to go a different route instead.

According to the website, it says it FITS all 2012-2023 / 992 / 991 / 981 / 718 /. Please confirm this fits your vehicle before purchasing.

The details are here: https://www.blackmillperformance.com/.

As of 12/27/23, they are sold out!!

I am asking $150 shipped anywhere in the Continental US. Please PM me if interested.

Thanks!

No offense , but I think your situation is hampered by the fact that AWE and Rennline both make similar deflectors for $95-99 with free shipping. Always tough, even with a good product, to get near retail for something that can be purchased new from well know automotive suppliers. You might have better luck dropping to the price of the competitors, but this is just a friendly suggestion.

No offense taken and I appreciate the feedback. When comparing the Black Mill with AWE, there's no comparison. The AWE is more integrated but less effective. The rennline version might have its own problem(s). The review below is from another forum:

"I originally had the Rennline ones, I purchased from Pelican parts. However, they finish on them was not as good and it was starting to chip within a week of being on the car and the glue on their double sided tape starting to come loose from the back of the deflector. I reached out to Rennline and they told me this has been reported from others and they were pulling them off the market to redesign. They contacted Pelican on my behalf to handle getting me a refund which was nice. I removed them and replaced with Blackmill and they are far superior to the Rennline ones. Have had them now on the car for 4 months and zero issues. Not sure if they ever developed a updated version and I do not seem them listed for sale on Rennline's website (other than the carbon version). I give them credit for standing behind the product and pulling it to hopefully come up with something better."

With that said, I am open to any offers.

Thanks!

Thanks Larry, I had found this video over a month ago but I could not remember where. This is the diffuser I would prefer as one can put everything back to stock and you don't have to use double stick tape. Appreciate the post and after viewing the info from the OP it looks like the Blackmill one is another solid option.

I started with the AWE deflectors, and ended up with the Blackmill deflectors. Better fit than the AWEs, and you can simply peel off that Blackmill sticker on the side. I was not impressed with the fit and look of the AWE deflector on my car, but others reported much better results on their cars. Still, I'm 100% satisfied with Blackmill - except that I'm PO'd that Porsche doesn't solve this problem with a factory piece.

Thanks everyone for your input/feedback. Full disclosure, I actually have the ones in the video which is why I'm selling the ones from Blackmill. If you look up reviews for the ones shown in the video, you'll see that it suffers from some minor alignment issues. I experienced the same with mine but for me it's not that big a deal but for others it might be.

It is a toss up between the two. Functionally, I've only heard good things about Blackmill. It is still a stick on though. The one shown in the video is more integrated and can easily be removed but suffers from some minor alignment issues. Can't go wrong with either IMO.

@silverscooby27 yes, these are still available.

FYI, I generally only check my messages once or twice a day so please be patient.
