It was an Exclusiv option made by Techart, as is the rear winglet.

As much as I love the aftermarket trunk spoilers, I could never bring myself to drill holes in my trunklid.

Raj can tell, but I think it might be a double sided 3M tape. I couldn't bring myself either.

It does use double sided 3M tape and uses clips/clamps to hold it to the edges. No drilling required. I tried it for a while and then eventually put it on permanently with the tape.

These were made by techart for porsche and available through Porsche as a special wishes option. The have porsche part #'s. So not really aftermarket imo. I love the rear spoiler, but prefer the Turbo S front splitter over this one.

As I said earlier, this was Exclusiv. I also said these were Techart. Special wishes was the earlier program.

VRS department. AKA Exclusiv, AKA Special Wishes, AKA Special Works, AKA Werke I. Call it whatever you'd like. Its all the same. And these parts are not aftermarket. They are made by techart for Porsche as i stated and have porsche part #'s. In fact, techart made many parts for Porsche, not only for the 968...but a few other cars. Both interior & exterior bits. And that was my point. I don't understand why you are trying to combat this or argue? You seem to enjoy arguing just to argue.


Thats great that you also said these were techart, would you like a cookie?

Who's arguing? You just repeated everything I said earlier, but misspoke about the term of the internal program Porsche used for custom options; during the period of the 968 it was called Exclusiv. If you saw earlier pictures you would see this car has body colored dash and door panel parts as well from the Exclusiv program.

You also could get the splitter and winglet from Techart direct, so they were both factory supplied and aftermarket available.

there was no misuse of the term, you just want to argue to argue. Grow Up kiddo. Really.

You like to argue semantics and the misuse of terms, meanwhile you misuse terms on a daily basis. There is no right or wrong here, get over it, move on, and again....grow up. How old are you agian? My Nephews arnt as hard headed...unreal.

As i said, it is called the VRS department. AKA Exclusiv, AKA Exclusive, AKA Special Wishes, AKA Special Works, AKA Werke I. Call it whatever you'd like. Its all the same. And you are wrong, This would be a "Special Wishes" car as per another members Window Sticker for his 1995 Coupe; which has "Special Wishes" listed on it (Not "Exclusiv")

I did not repeat everything you said. You made no mention that these were factory parts. And that was the point of my post. You said they were techart parts available through the exclusiv program. Ramius was still under the impression that they are aftermarket and i just wanted to clear up that they do indeed carry Porsche part #'s.
