Default Finally installed 968 wing *pics*
Thanks to Patrick at CPR Racing for putting together the group buy a few months ago. It sat for a couple weeks in the garage, took some minor modification to get it to fit decent, then of to paint and now its installed. Im happy with the outcome. Always wanted to ditch the rubber spoiler and get one of these when i first saw Sam Grants car. The four pieces are ALOT lighter then the stock spoiler.
Now my car is looking more and more like Sam's
Heres a few pics.









And heres a reflection pic just for fun

Wow, that looks great! Mine is more of a matte-black finish, but I really like how the high-gloss looks!

Also do you have pictures of how you mounted the lower middle piece? I tried to make some brackets for mine but they kept breaking off.

Looks great, I love the gloss black! What kind of work was involved to mount it?

Your car is far too shiny. I demand you throw some mud on it.

And that wing looks like crap. you need to give it to me and I'll dispose of it properly.

It took about 1h to get done with the drilling and fitting. Its not a perfect fit but its pretty close. It comes with all the screws and bolts, the only thing you need is some 3M double side tape for the side trim.

what type of 3M tape did you use? Patrick suggested and I believe used stikaflex to install the side trim pieces.

It looks awesome..nice work.
