Default question on quality of getty carbon wings for a street car

I've not got much more I can take away on my car now to save weight without losing practicality for the street driving. I have however heard great things about Getty panels. My question is can I achieve a factory finish using their carbon front wings or when people say they are good do they mean good for a race car! the weight of the front wings with all the underseal is huge and as my car will go for paint before long this seemed like a good idea. Also, will I keep arch liners with they're wings? Thanks in advance, Jim.
to keep everyone happy here is a pic of my just fully rebuilt 964 replica

Getty parts are pretty good. As good as most. Maybe DP is better out of Germany. Most say just get glass, not carbon. As far as finish and fit, well, I have their rear carrera wing on mine, and it looks really good. It needed some working for fitment. assuming the front fenders will too.

Now, would I do this? Well, I Didn't unless you have a smashed fender I wouldn't. 911 need a bit of weight up front!
