Default Deep Lip GTS replica wing for Glass hatch Prototype pic

In a previous thread I was talking about a replica of a 924 GTS wing,that will fit on a 944 glass hatch.We tried to fit a 924 GTS wing on a glass hatch and it was obvious it was designed to fit a lexan hatch.So my fiberglass expert desided to mold his own.It should be a solid lightweight wing that can hardly be distinguished from the OEM unit,with more downforce and lighter weight. It wil have a deeper lip and mount with factory holes.No cost or finish date as of now,updates ASAP

Looks like it will cause more drag than down force.

Probably acts somewhat like a gurney flap (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gurney_flap)

Probably not very efficient, but still very cool! Nice work to your friend!
