Post Aftermarket wing for 951

I know that many of you may think this is a crime, but I remember a couple years ago in South Carolina I saw an aftermarket wing on a red 944. It looked great, very tasteful, yet very aggressive. I have started to consider thinking about maybe looking into the chance that I might want something like this. This wing had Porsche crests on either side and stood above the stock lip about 4-5" and I think it was rubber like the stock wing as well. Anybody know who makes something like this?

No, it looked a lot like the wing from my roommates Stillen body kit on his 300zx. But this was black rubber, I believe, and had Porsche crests on both left and right side. The crests could have been added later, but I have never seen this wing before and it looked very aggressive, yet tasteful. Can anybody name some companies that even make aftermarket wings, maybe I can just search through some pics and find it.

That sounds a lot like the 924 carrera GT spoiler??

Similar to the standard 944 spoiler but taller/thicker...

It almost looked like this...

but the sides curved down a little more. And I'm pretty sure it was made of rubber.

Does anyone know what that bottom spoiler, or what ever it is called, on that white car is. I have one on my 84 that was there when I got the car and have had several 944 owners ask about it.

Yeah, that is really close to what I remember. May actually be the same one, I saw it 2 years ago and maybe my memory is a bit fuzzy. Where did you get that Dan?

It's not made for the 944. It came from a German company called "Style Auto" and it fit pretty well so i put it on.. i think it looks really good from the side or front profile.
