Nice...found this and might consider it for my "new' 981 Boxster S. They're still selling the spoiler, painted for $625.
OP - can I ask how your spoiler has held up? How is the paint work after some time?
Have the ruined aerodynamics caused you any stability concerns at speed?
Thanks.

I can't say that I notice any stability-related issues from the seat of my pants. Maybe I'm just not going fast enough for it to make a difference.

Wow, I can't believe that it's already been almost 2 years since I did this mod. Paint has held up great, no age-related fatigue or premature wear, etc.

Thanks, appreciate the input.
Any stability concerns are silly IMO. A Boxster is a street car. Even the occasional track driven Boxster is not going to hit speeds where that aero change would be noticeable IMO.

I got the Spoiler Nation ducktail last year and it went on fine, but the paint (black) wasn't a perfect match. It had a lot of orange peel and my body shop was able to use grinding compound and the color is now a much better match, but still not 100 percent, perhaps 95% match. My body shop filled and painted my factory GT4 side air scoops without seeing the car and they came out a perfect match.

Hello Guys,
I've ordered a ducktail spoiler for my 981 GTS the 6 May 2020 from Direct Car Toys (https://directcartoys.com/2013-2016-...g-spoiler.html) that seems to be of the same owner of Spoiler Nation website (https://spoilernation.com/2013-2016-...g-spoiler.html)....
I've received a tracking number the 15 May but the package seems to be stuck in Miami (the delivery is Switzerland).
After i received the tracking number the customer service disappeared and now it's about 1 month that i don't receive any answer from them...
Do you know if they are now closed or if they are scammers?
Any help will be really appreciated. I'm a bit worried...
Thanks a lot!

This is kind of pain-staking detail that Rennlister's have come to enjoy and depend on from fellow Porsche fanatics! Thanks so much for a terrific review and really well captured photos following the steps! Most of us will never play in the rarefied air of GT3/GT2-RS ownership, and its these little, reasonably priced, tasteful additions that bring so much extra fulfillment to owning the best Porsche "we can afford". Very well done! Proud to be a member of the dedicated forum.
