Emailed you a couple of days ago, no answer. I'm interested but your pics show them on your car and it doesn't look like they fit very well. Concerned about the huge gap on the back. Are you sure they're factory? Are yours not on all the way in your pic? Thanks

Your pic:

Right.

There's a tab ~midle of each piece that slips/snugs under the clamshell. There is a slight... slight gap, but nothing as extraordinary as the photo. me thinks incorrectly installed. Some have put a trim seal/guard on the section that sits atop the clamshell, to mitigate the appearance of gap.

That's what I was wondering if maybe he just set them on there for the pic. Most of the aftermarket ones have the molding on them to take up space but I've not seen to many with that big of a gap. There may be an explanation. 👍

Not sold yet…..Sorry, I’ve just now seen these responses I was traveling for work. I’ll double check my email but I haven’t seen anything come through.

Bad install in those pictures for sure. They just weren’t slid together all the way. Here’s the underside of the hump showing the Porsche information. No warping or issues with them to date. I’ve had them wrapped in moving blankets in climate controlled storage for years.
