Closest non-Frankenstein wing I've seen is the Tech Art Type 2 made specifically for 991.2 NB. Not close in magnitude to the GT3, but significantly different from stock. I think you'll also want/need to look at front spoilers if you're upgrading the rear wing due to additional downforce on the rear. This is definitely not an area of my expertise.
Yeah I saw that but was hoping someone here has one and could send a few side shots of the car? It just replaces/sit in place of the OEM wing now and not sure how it looks? If anyone has some photo's please share.
Here is a side shot of my 991.1 C2S. The Techart Type II spoiler replaces the factory spoiler and you will need the factory spoiler raising mechanism coded out. I also have the techart side skirts and front spoiler. I am lowered about 1 inch on Ohlins R&T.
If you want to see more angles of the car and techart aero kit my instagram has a lot more photos (@9eleven.lfe)

I added one more photo in my original reply so you can see the front spoiler a bit better - to me it completes the look. It was not difficult to install bc I didn't do it :-) I had a local shop that I deal with order and install it. Note: the pieces come raw so the shop had it sent out for prep/painting for me as well.
A large rear spoiler like that will really change the dynamics and air flow around the car, so be sure you add the front spoiler at the same time otherwise the front end will get lift at speed, a lot of lift to the point of being unsafe. You can't hang a wing on the back without compensation on the front. Also know that this will slow your car down (may not matter to you), there's a lot of drag and will cost you about 8 mph on top speed.
If you track the car you will get huge downforce benefits above 70 mph that will overwork your stock suspension, so a set of coil-overs, springs and possibly fatter sway bars are in order, along with sticky rubber tires to take advantage of all that.

this is more on point that most will realize, dont give into the natural impulse of "I dont or will never track my car"
these cars arent supercar fast, but are Stupid fast for most streets and the way i see some folks driving, zig-zagging in and out of lanes at triple digit speed on roads with elevation changes.. it doesnt take much to get caught with that "lift" in question.. You may not fly off the road like The Mercedes GTR cars (at Le mans a while ago) but you can sure unsettle and lose your prized possession in a hurry.

Hmmm first time I have read that the Tech Art 2 wing was for the NB chassis.

Anybody ever mount this to a GTS? or C4?
your statement about the front end lift is spot on. When I went to get the spoilers mounted, the front spoiler was defected. The body shop mounted the rear only and I left for sebring. As the car approached 100mph, I could feel the front end lift. When I got home, they installed the front wing. Lift gone!
Is it just the angle or do you have a taller riser on your wing? Not related to your ride but I wonder what this does to cooling for us .2 folks. When we get overworked the stock wing comes up (or stays up) to help cool us off. I have been toying with the idea of doing this to give my car a new look but the cooling has me a bit concerned.
