Tequipment 911
Accessories for the new 911 model range

As with the cars we create, all our
accessories undergo rigorous testing
during their development. From design
through to approval, we thoroughly
scrutinise important properties, from
safet y to performance and from fitness
for purpose to durability. After all, they
are more than just accessories, they are
part of a harmonious overall concept –
your Porsche.The same applies to one of the highlights
in our range: the Aerokit Cup. This st yling
option comprises a new front apron
with a refined front spoiler and modified
spoiler lip, as well as a new rear spoiler
with fixed-wing profile. What makes this
package even more special? The Aerokit
Cup can be retrofit ted even if your vehicle
came ready equipped with a SportDesign
front apron or SportDesign package.
This is because their modular design
enables them to be seamlessly
combined.
Whether you wish to enhance its perfor -
mance, refine its st yle or add comfort
features, it is never too late to give your
Porsche an extra personal touch.
Whichever Tequipment products you ask
your Porsche Centre to fit, your Porsche will always be the masterpiece that the
developers in Weissach envisaged it to be.
For peace of mind, you can rest assured
that your original warrant y will not be
affected.

Note on the use of winter tyres
Summer t yres provide optimum perfor -

distances are increased. We therefore
recommend that you fit winter t yres during
the colder months of the year so that you
