The car has the sport design package. Thanks!

I checked into it for a friend with the duck tail. She wanted the wing. The kit Suncoast had, I was told was the whole package. The ducktail and wing. Dont think it was OEM when I asked them.

Checking into a OEM complete kit from Porsche and she was quoted near 6500, before paint and installation if I remember right.

Than of course you have to think about resale if you do aftermarket stuff. The only right answer of course is what you want.

If you want the TechArt, get it! Remove the factory, keep the original, and replace with the TA. When it comes time to sell, sell as is or switch it. No biggie.

It's your car, make it what you want!

NoGABiker, I LOVE that photo! I have described the aerokit in it's current form as having a "belt and suspenders" look from certain views. Having said that, my new GTS has the aerokit, and I love it. Ya can't account for taste...
+1 looks fantastic on the gts

its OEM... http://www.suncoastparts.com/product/SKU991CUPWING.html

Its not clear to me how the wing is attached to the ducktail, which *could* explain why the "kit" includes both the wing *and* the ducktail since they could in fact be different parts depending
upon how the wing is attached (i.e its not simply drilled thru the duck) vs the standalone ducktail (which may not have provision to support the aerokit cup wing retrofitted)

What your friend was quoted for is probably the *entire* kit, here: http://www.suncoastparts.com/product/SKU991CUP.html

I know, disgusting!! Maybe it's the dual PSE tailpipes? I guess Rennline mesh grills are a good idea too.

Start up should be interesting. I have never heard an exhaust gurgle before.

Still laughing about the grasshoppers....
