Default 993 RS wing on our 964, your thoughts

I have been considering going with a fixed rear wing for about a year now. I have been giving it lots of thoughts especially considering all that are available. I do not mind shying from being correct, as you can see I have 996 wheels on my Porsche. I find that 98% of the general public do not know much about weather a Porsche 911 is correct in its appearance. And the most inportant thing is that I do not, of course untill the time it comes to sell it. I have added some pictures, one being a 964 with a 993 RS wing and the rest are 993 RS.

I'd say it looks very good.

When I read the title, I wasn't too sure I wanted to see this but I must say I like what I see. Very nice on the martini car.

It looks very good on your car GeorgeK, thanks for the pictures. I like the fact that it has a sperate grill.

From some angles it looks ok, from others it doesn't look right, but always seems to look right on a 993

Too '993 feminine' looking for the 964's lines, IMO.

Hi Guys,
Sorry to revampe this thread,
Arrowhead,
If ever you read this message.
I think the 993 RS spoiler looks great on the 964, I really like it and would like to fit it one on my 964, could you please comment on how it fitted on the 964 rear lid
Thanks

If I don't say so myself I think the look is not bad good in fact wonder why I've never seen that attempted , looks better in a 964 than a 993
I think ..
Now the part about him not worrying about being wrong or the wheels being 996 ? I think he's just not aware how off base he might be , haha, Bert

Hi
I made the attempt but the shop made it to height on the lid. I then heard the 993 RS could fit with a slight mod from inside .
