Hi!  What is the name of the heat-resistant plastic - it is a special material.

Thank you!

Hard to say without seeing and feeling it - is it on other model years?

Can you post a photo?

The most common heat resistant plastics are polyimides (although there are many others in use) and there are various brand names for it.

Thank you for your prompt reply.

This black thermo-plastic is on the 07/08 911 Turbo.  The name was mentioned in training, but I can't locate it in my learning resources.

Have Joyous Holidays and a Happy New Year!

Sorry, without a little more info on what it looks like I can't really help. I don't believe Holbert's currently has a Turbo in stock, so I can't even go over and look at it on an actual car.

Thank you for your assistance!

Sorry I couldn't be of more help. Sad

I appreciate your follow-up.  If I experience an epiphany of recall, I'll get back to you.

Best regards!

If you remember what the name sounded like, then that might be enough to trigger something for me and I might be able to figure out the name.
