Suggestion · Original poster

I picked up the black Cayman S badge today £100.60 which was very expensive but I had bought a used standard one which I intended on painting black but seeing how fiddly it is going to be to replace the sticky stuff I took the easy option.

Suggestion · Original poster

I may try and obtain some used Black mirrors if I can find some unmarked ones, then I can always put the green ones back on if I want to return it to original state.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Can anyone confirm what the paint code is?

POST 2Original post

I'm looking at doing that as well, also going to do the Cayman badge, tail pipes & heat shield trim also in black.

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Wulfy66 — mild amnesia — I remembered I asked this on another forum. The code is 041 — which is basically Porsche standard black

Thanks! I may try and obtain some used Black mirrors if I can find some unmarked ones, then I can always put the green ones back on if I want to return it to original state.

New vents were about 35 each — new mirror covers about 100 each total (they come in two parts — make sure you get both) I am doing the same and storing the green ones. The only thing I am going to have bite the bullet with is the fixed rear aerowing — don't want to know how much one of those costs.

POST 7 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

mrdemon said: you can also buy an M badge for it ;-) I'm not trying to pass it off as an R It already has the Porsche aerokit and the bright colours look better with a bit of contrast on them — taking inspiration from the R models I've seen the wing looks good black — along with the other bits to compliment it.

Black is definitely better. I want to go for black mirrors and wheels at some point. I quite fancy the Cayman wing like yours in black too.

Ps What is that exhaust you have there? It's part of the turbo conversion. TPC Racing Edit: That link is to the Stage 2 kit, mine has the Stage 1, but the exhaust is the same.
