Heres an amazon link to the wind deflectors used for the 986 boxsters. Ive seen some out there for crazy prices but this one seems to be reasonable (i know its $200 for plastic). I plan on modeling and 3D printing them myself soon and ill attach the file here once done too so no one needs to pay as much.

Right on!

I was a little disappointed to see the speaker brackets for the cubby are not available - only one seller in the UK who won't share (or even sell) the design.

Having received the kit it's not too complex - i'd be encouraged to try designing myself next time.
