A few weeks ago we blogged about our excitement regarding a build that was taking place in Japan and that build was our full carbon wide body aero kit for the Porsche Cayman 718 chassis, and we are pleased to bring you the finished build, well almost finished, Sho is just waiting on his very custom set of BBS race wheels to make their way onto the car, but for now the Advan GT wheels took pride of place.

For more details on our Cayman conversion get in touch with us, we will be happy to assist you with your own carbon wide body build.


Updated: Oct 18, 2021

We have said it before and we will say it again, we get to work with some incredible people all over the world and this time we are in one of our favourite countries in the world, Japan with our good friend Sho Kobayashi from Kanagawa and it’s a build we have wanted to do in Japan for so long as we know how well received the Porsche brand is in the Japanese scene, you only have to look at RWB to see the following this company has with their Porsche creations.

It was October 2020 when Sho reached out about our carbon wide body aero kit for his race going Cayman and with a few emails exchanged it wasn’t long before one was being manufactured, boxed up and shipped out for Sho to start working his magic.

It was only when we got to see the latest images that we had a small heart failure, as Sho had ordered our 981 Cayman wide body aero package, but was fitting it to his all new Cayman 718 4-cylinder new shape beauty, after checking he confirmed that we did in fact order the kit knowing and that alterations would need to be made around the front and rear lights, and we are very pleased to confirm the modifications are minimal, so we will now be offering this aero kit for the all-new 718 chassis with modifications of course.

Well it seems the car is not far away from being completed and we will soon get to show the world his new show stopper as he is going racing with no other than RWB’s Nakai-San who will be in his all new 997 Turbo race car “Notting Hill” so very much one to watch out for and we will bring you all the updates to this show stopping build.

Just as we were finishing up this blog post we had a chat with a good friend who we have collaborated with before and he has just ordered his kit for a winter build, so we don’t just have one epic Porsche Cayman build happening we have two beauties to look forward two.





We love everything Porsche from the early 930 911 right up to the current 992 chassis, which is why we are constantly adding new carbon aero and parts to our ever growing Porsche range, with our latest addition aimed at the 991 chassis, this is one we are super excited about.

We have been longing to add a swan neck RSR style wing to our range of Porsche parts for a while now and the 991 has been the first chassis we have developed the assembly for, the 991 is first up because of the huge demand for this model, so made sence to get this designed and into production, we will be offering the supports in various colour options as well as a carbon options at some point in the future.


The first Porsche hope to wear the all new swan neck will be our good friend Ben, owner of BPA Body shop in Launceston who is building a Porsche 991.2 road car, that will also see a huge amount of track time, this will be the first UK customer to try our new set up so we look forward to following the build journey, as this build will also be wearing our Carbon roof as well as our ducktail engine cover.


Now the 991 chassis is all done, we will now look at developing the swan neck for Porsche 997 chassis, we think it will be a great addition for our R13 street conversions as well as our up and coming 997 slant nose we are currently working on.


More pictures to follow once we get the product on to the BPA Porsche 991.2 street set up built and tearing up the the streets.
