Factory ducktail removable? Whats under there
I searched but couldnt find...does anyone know if the factory Sportdesign ducktail option still has the spoiler mechanism underneath?
Im looking at a car with the option and Id like to know if i would have the option to install a standard spoiler at some future point without also having to install the mechanism.....or are the mechanism and controls removed or never installed when this option is ordered?
thanks

Great, thanks
as a side, it makes perfect sense that they would obsolete these parts and save money/weight. When you consider this option cost $5k and they also saved a fair amount on the obsoleted parts their margins must be great on this option (i know the $5k includes the front fascia as well but still). Not mad at Porsche, just admiring the business model.

I am thinking of going the other way... wondering if I have to remove all that stuff to get it to work if I order the OEM part... interesting.
I LOVE the look of the ducktail, but won't be adding the front spoiler assembly to mine. I know they say it screws with the aero of the car, but I won't be pushing the top speed so should be fine.
