Hi,

I just bought a 1986 black carrera 3.2! I'm soo happy =).. One thing though, my car doesn't have a rear wing at all, so i was just hoping that you guys can post some pics of the various choices i have, and if you guys have pics of it, maybe some pre 993 911's with 993 wings, as i've seen them available. Thanks guys!

I think you should ditch the wing idea. The car looks much better without it.

On the other hand...I like the front and rear spoilers for the 3.2 Carreras. It is your car, so do whatever makes you happy.

Congrats on your new car. Enjoy and have fun!

personally i like the whale tail on the 911 but I think you should out the correct tail on it an 86 whale tail. my dad has an 86 3.2 with the original factory tail and it looks great. But it is your car do to it what makes you happy.

If you decide to get the wing make sure you get the splitter for the front too so your car handles correctly at high speeds. Congrats on the purchase btw.

To Wing or not to Wing, That is the question.

I like them both ways. I'm glad to have the spoiler/wing but if the car didn't have one, I'm not sure I'd add it. Maybe???

I think the car looks great with or without the wing! If you are going to "wing it" put the Carrera wing & front spoiler on it.

By carrera front spolier, do you mean just a lip under the standard front bumper? Can somebody post some pics of a black carrera coupe with wings, front spoilers etc, so i can get an idea =)
Thanks... this forum is so much more responsive than flat-6.net

I also have a picture of a late model whale tail with no rubber around the edges, but i can't seem to upload the picture

Did you buy a coupe, targa or cab? Dont run a rear spoiler without the front one.
