Shopping for a Porsche owner is tricky. They already have the car they wanted, and almost everything worth adding is model-specific. So this list sticks to what owners actually ask us for: parts they touch every day, fixes for factory weak spots, and a few bigger upgrades.
The picks run from stocking stuffers under $100 to dream gifts, and each one lists exactly which cars it fits. Where we use carbon, it is the real thing. Our 992 mirror deflectors are prepreg carbon fiber, autoclave cured, and our steering wheel trim is genuine carbon fiber, not a wrap or the carbon-look plastic many generics use.

Painted Key Remote Trim (G1 and G2)
Their key is the part of the car they touch every day. This trim replaces the factory side casing with one painted in an official Porsche exterior color, so the key matches the car. It clips on by hand and fixes a scratched key in seconds.
Two key generations take different trims, and you tell them apart by the car. Order G1 for: 911 (991) 2012-2019, Boxster 2013-2025 and Cayman 2014-2025 (981 and 718), every gasoline Macan 2015-2026, Cayenne (958) 2011-2018, Panamera (970) 2010-2016, and the 918 Spyder. Order G2 for: 911 (992) 2020 and up, Taycan 2020 and up, Panamera 2017 and up, and Cayenne (9Y0) 2019 and up. The Macan Electric and Cayenne Electric use a different key. If the car is not listed, contact us before ordering.
Fits: G1 and G2 Porsche keys as listed above. One painted trim per order; remote housing not included. Pick the car's exterior color (or unpainted, which ships as two sets).
G1 $64.95 / G2 $69.95

Factory vanity mirror covers can warp, crack or sit crooked after years of sun and use. This replacement uses a dual-end pillar design with stainless steel locking pins, so it holds its shape and keeps closing properly. A small, practical fix they will appreciate.

A worn or broken glove box latch is a small annoyance that is easy to put off.

Historic Ignition Switch (Entry and Drive)
A nod to Porsche's left-hand ignition racing tradition, this switch is CNC milled from a single block of aluminum with a five-hole motorsport design and SALUTE and CLASSIC engravings, replacing the factory key plug in cars with Entry and Drive. Swapping it takes no tools: turn the old plug to the far left and hold for about 30 seconds until it clicks free.

Dry Carbon Side Mirror Wind Deflector Set (992)
Made from prepreg carbon fiber, autoclave cured, these deflectors cover the factory black plastic trim and help cut wind buffeting noise. They mount at the factory location with the included double-sided tape, so there is no drilling and nothing permanent. Choose gloss or matte to match their other carbon.
Fits: Porsche 992 models. Finish: Gloss or Matte.
$235
Matte Carbon Fiber Steering Wheel Trim
Their eyes cross the steering wheel spokes every time they check the gauges, and from the factory that trim is plastic. This replaces it with genuine 3K plain weave carbon fiber in a matte clear coat that cuts glare, not a vinyl wrap or a hydro-dipped cover like many generics. Pick the version with or without the drive mode dial: if there is a round Normal, Sport, Sport Plus dial on the lower right spoke, choose Yes.
Fits: GT sport steering wheel in 911 (992.1 and 992.2) 2020-2026; Taycan (9J1) 2020-2026; Panamera (971.2) 2021-2023; Macan (95B.3) 2022-2025. Does not fit the 992 GT3 RS or Macan Electric. Professional installation is required (airbag removal).
$445
Magnetic Corsa Shift Paddles
They will feel this one on every drive. The paddles are CNC machined from hard anodized 6061 billet aluminum with 4mm satin carbon fiber plates, and magnets give a quick snap back and a sharp click on every shift. Angle and distance to the wheel are adjustable, and they plug into the Porsche Sport Design steering wheel.
Fits (this listing): 911 (991.2) 2017-2019, 718 Cayman and Boxster (982) 2017-2023, 718 GT4, GT4 RS and Spyder 2017-2023, Panamera (971.1) 2017-2020, Cayenne (958.2) 2015-2018, Cayenne (9Y0.1) 2019-2023, Macan (95B.1 and 95B.2) 2015-2021.

Porsche gift FAQ
How do I pick the right version for their Porsche?
Start with the model and model year, then match the chassis code in each listing (992, 991.2, 982, 95B and so on). Several picks here come in two versions split by generation, so read the Fits line closely. If anything is unclear, contact our team with the year and model and we will confirm fitment before you order.
How do I know if they have a G1 or G2 key?
Go by the car. Broadly, G1 covers the 991 911, 981 and 718 Boxster and Cayman, every gasoline Macan, the 2018 and earlier Cayenne and the 2016 and earlier Panamera, while G2 covers every 992 911, the Taycan, the 2017 and newer Panamera and the 2019 and newer Cayenne. The exact years are in the key trim section above.
What if I am not sure what they drive?
Every pick here is fitment-specific, so find out the model and year first. A photo of their key or steering wheel also helps. Send us what you know and our team will help you narrow it down.
Are these hard to install?
Most are simple. The key trims clip on by hand, the ignition switch swaps without tools, the mirror deflectors use double-sided tape, the drive mode dial comes with a pry tool, and most owners fit the shift knobs at home in under 30 minutes. The glove box latch is best left to a professional, and the steering wheel trim requires professional installation because the airbag has to come out.
When will it ship, and what if it does not fit?
Shipping time depends on the item, so check the product page and order early if it is meant for a specific date. For returns and exchanges, see our Shipping and Returns page for current terms.
