I spent a bit of time and research trying to decide the same thing.  IMO...the cleanest option for the newer monsters is the Motodynamics fender eliminator (FE) + their integrated taillight.  

Here's why...

1) No blinkers sticking out with integrated tail - sequential turn signals and stop alert feature are cool and functional
2) Relocated key hole means no fugly box sticking down creating a "flush" look with the subframe...you don't get this with evotech and others
3) The FE is only $30!! Integrated taillight is $75.  So basically get taillight + FE for the cost of the Evotech FE
4) No other combo will yield this look at this price that I am aware of.  Correct me if I am wrong please.

Downside: on 796/1100 you need to eliminate the servo motor with Duc.EE or deal with a CEL.  That is the downside of benefiting from the flush look as the servo motor mounting plate hangs down below the subframe when viewed from the side.  This is not a problem with 696 obviously or if you already have ECU/exhaust with servo removed.

I have no affiliation with any of these companies, just my .02 from my own research.  Hope this helps...


did a quickie peak at the install instructions, and it looks almost identical to the comp werx kit

You are correct, the Werkes FE is similar save the fact the Werkes is unpainted raw stainless (looks tacky unless you paint it) while the Motodynamics uses black rust proof coating...and go figure the Werkes is still $100 more!

well the werks kit also is bent to allow room.. if you can call it that... for the servo motor
