front bumper wing tips - canards
Thought I would share this interesting find...
We like to upgrade our cars with air duct scoops and clear corner lights, but I've never seen these (on a 964)!

I think the OP is referring to the side-marker-delete/built-in canards. That's the first time I've seen that particiular take. Usually, they're the bolt-on type or formed into the bumper. Cool!
The splitter appears to be the Techart 3-piece. The 3.8 is slightly different and similar to mine--basically, a couple of winglets riveted to the stock splitter.

My bad, sorry for the confusion, didn't know the correct word... I was scratching my head thinking about how to describe what those things are... I knew there was some kool aero, race word? Canard.
(I highlighted a canard in the third picture)

This past winter we were treated to a couple excellent track car build-ups (Marc and Kai's cars both quickly come to mind)...I love looking at 964 track cars!
More canard pictures....what a wonderful looking 964 racer!

Does anyone know, I presume with data, whether these canards bring a significant front end grip and stability improvement to a 964....either on their own or in conjunction with a front spliter (and if the latter is required, which combo works best)?
