@Snkrs109 Maybe you can explain further?
It's def not an OEM piece as the OEM has different attachment style, this one looks to attach to the stock retractable spoiler somehow. Are there any 991.2's with non active spoilers? If not, you might not be able to code out the active spoiler.

Current status of rear spoiler/air intake project. Still quite a bit of shaping to do. Goal is to make fixed replacement for rear wing to be used in conjunction with 911R rear diffuser. Next step will be to acquire the plastic honeycomb piece that the rear wing attaches to to fabricate the final design and attachment hardware.

The spoiler can be retracted, not fixed. So
dont need to code the spoiler. So if it needs extra air. It will open up.

it does have a gap to give air to the engine when the spoiler is down. Similar to the OEM spoiler.

the spoiler is being primed and painted this week after a few pre fits and some adjustment made by the seller.

he is located in Canada and he is told me he used to build boats. So you know he is
on point.

will post more pictures once is completed.

I know there are quite a few guys interested in a 991.2 duck tail. Maybe this company can design something. Seems like they have actual access to CAD drawings etc.

I'm guessing GT-Lightweight since he has 911T.

Carrera T based project of the Porsche Prototype Development Center with overall goal of mass reduction below 3,000 lbs. while maintaining Grand Touring orientation (i.e. - wife friendly). ECU tune to 450 HP an option.

It can be coded. Just like the .1's
