Thanks so much. Love your wheels btw.

Growing up the car on my wall was the white/blue Carrera RS 2.7 with the ducktail. This is my "modern" version. The stripe is the standard OEM decal but I removed the two thin lines and had it moved down. I needed something to break up the bland middle/side of the car. We don't get that air vent like the Turbo.

You'll love it. The stock retractable wing on the 991+ cars are a disappointment. Why would they design something that ruins the body lines of the car when its moving. Especially in white, it looks like something flew off and you can see the plastic left behind, not so bad on black cars.

Just make sure you do something with the front bumper (if you don't already have the GTS/SportDesign front) to even out the aero, or else you'll end up having uneven downforce and could cause your steering to get light at higher speeds.

Yes, I do have the Sport Design front bumper and mirrors this will finish it off nicely.

Hey no - it’s Mosshammer. It doesn’t block the underneath of the car allowing the exhaust and engine expel heat better.

Suncoast no longer shows 991.1 ducktails as back-ordered. I placed an order this morning and about 2 hours later received notification that it was back-ordered another 2 months. I called and spoke with a sales rep, who confirmed the "back-order" status was removed as they received 1 for stock, however, it has already been sold. So looks like it is on back-order again. They apologized and are refunding and cancelling my order.

If you too have been awaiting a status change on Suncoast and are ready to place your order, please call them first to confirm.

If they received one, it might be worth checking west coast dealers to see if other regional warehouses received some.

Maybe this is all a good sign for us ducktail owners. Demand is good in the Porsche world.
