Be good to see with and without.

Saw it on Leicester's GTS saloon.

It looks very, very good.

I'd spec it were I not instead going carbon to match my GTS interior.

Aren't the standard ones aluminium (silver on most models)?
EDIT- not mine below- from a used approved listing- but I have specced it having seen one in person.

I wouldn't choose it along with the logo'd projector lights.

I would recommend black brushed aluminium (free) over silver.

Why waste money on something that reminds you that you bought a Porsche - Ithink you'll already know.

Agreed - I have the free altn. choice of black brushed aluminum, a great option and looks very sharp - also don't get that weird effect of a strip of bright aluminum visible when door closed. Lighted sills very gimmicky imo.

My care had the standard silver 'aluminium' with grey script. It was actually plastic and looked very old-fashioned. I had these replaced with the illuminated black aluminium. IMHO a vast improvement. Looks so much better, I think quite classy and I notice it every time I open the door. My car came with the "Porsche" projector lights which I find a little cheesy. Would not remove but would not order.

Mine are black brushed aluminum and look fine.

On my CT 4 black plastic was standard. Glad I ordered black brushed aluminum. Looks better and also includes an aluminum protection strip in the trunk in stead of black plastic. Didn’t go for the illlunated ones. 1 K extra for the lights wasn’t worth it for me.

Do you have a picture?

No. RWD models have cheap plastic ones. I ordered aluminum for ~$300-400. Black aluminum is standard on higher trim levels.

Would you please share the think for the illuminated ones? I'd assume it comes with installation instructions? Thanks

Where did you order them from? I'm not seeing them on Suncoast.com - they only have sills with 4S and Turbo logos. Thx.
