Whether you drive a 981 or 718 Cayman, you know that mid-engine balance is everything. But even the most performance-focused models can benefit from a more refined aesthetic and functional upgrade. The Cayman Carbon Engine Cover & Bulkhead Brace Bar combo delivers both — improving structural rigidity while transforming your engine bay into a visual centerpiece.
Because when you pop that hatch, it should look just as good as it performs.
This carbon engine cover and brace bar kit is designed for perfect fitment on both 981 and 718 chassis Caymans. Whether you own a base model or a high-performance variant, this upgrade seamlessly integrates with your rear hatch layout.

Aerospace-Grade Carbon Fibre Construction
Both the engine lid and rear brace bar are made from 2x2 twill dry carbon fibre, offering top-tier aesthetics and exceptional strength-to-weight ratio. Because these parts are highly visible when you open the hatch, only the finest materials will do.
The result? A lightweight, high-strength setup that will not warp, fade, or deteriorate over time — even in the engine bay's high-heat environment.
Rear Bulkhead Brace – Subtle Support That Makes a Difference
The included bulkhead brace bar mounts across the rear strut area, enhancing rear chassis stability and further stiffening the already rigid Cayman platform. While it’s not a full cage, it does provide added reinforcement and reduces flex — especially under hard cornering or track use.
Though subtle in design, the bulkhead bar complements the carbon lid perfectly and adds a layer of hidden performance.
Elevated Engine Bay Aesthetics
When you open the rear hatch of your Cayman, the stock engine cover can look underwhelming — especially on a car this performance-oriented. With this carbon engine lid, you get a motorsport-inspired centerpiece that ties together other carbon accents across the vehicle.
So whether you’re at a track day or a car meet, your Cayman’s engine bay will be camera-ready.
Quick, Clean, Reversible Installation
Because of its precision construction and OEM-style mounts, installation is quick and clean. You’ll simply swap your factory engine cover with the carbon lid and secure the brace bar using included brackets and hardware.
No cutting, trimming, or irreversible changes are required, making this mod fully reversible and lease-friendly.
Pair it with our Cayman GT4 Style Arch Guards to complete your exterior and chassis refinement.
