For aftermarket 968 type wings look at:

<a href="http://www.944racing.com/Search/ViewDetails.asp?PartNumber=944-SPORTWING&Model=944&CarYear=84&NumberType=OEM&hidSearchType=Main" target="_blank">http://www.944racing.com/Search/ViewDetails.asp?PartNumber=944-SPORTWING&Model=944&CarYear=84&NumberType=OEM&hidSearchType=Main</a>

Also, check out Tifosiman's 3/17/03 Rennlist thread on his installation.

944racing.com in Tulsa sells a black fiberglass one that bolts right on. I've seen one up close on an '86 na, and it looks much better than the rubber lip.

Have you thought about doing a 968 turbo S wing? Ive never seen a 944 with one. I think that would look cool.

It seems like AIR had one a few years back. A girl on 968.net has a carbon fiber one as well that looks pretty good. I will check around, thats accually my next mod.

You can always get a real 944S2/968 wing also. I bought an entire hatch w/wing off of a 968. I bought it from a used Porsche parts yard. I would recommend Parts Heaven for this find as they are reputable. I should note that doing it this way is much more expensive than what the other guys mentioned above. I had mine installed before most of the after market wings were available(the good ones at least). Good Luck.

Go to <a href="http://www.944sverige.com" target="_blank">www.944sverige.com</a> and post there. A very nice swedish board..

Just post there and Sphinx and some other guys will probably contact you. Also check out <a href="http://www.sanden.nu" target="_blank">www.sanden.nu</a> (Göterborg).

Oops, forgot to add, its actually a 944 wing on the 968! 944s had the wing years before the 968! The last couple years of the Turbos (coupes) had them in europe, and the 91 S2 picked them up. Sad how they arent as common to pickup.
