OEM Duck Tail

OEM Duck + Cup Tail

Techart Type II Large Spoiler

Techart Type I Lip Spoiler

Vorsteiner Lip Spoiler

Speedart Spoiler

OEM GT3 Spoiler (Not Available yet) but probably around $2500-3500

There is a few other one off spoiler online, not sure where u can buy them though.

I am waiting for the GT3 bumper and rear spoiler to be available, look so much more aggressive then the aero kit for our 991

Will the GT3 spoiler fit the narrow C2S body? Certainly the front and rear bumpers would not fit though. I would certainly like that though! My plan is to get the GT3 spoiler, areokit front bumper, and maybe a rear diffuser.

I think the best look would be the GT3 front bumper with the ducktail.

I'm borderline obsessed with the current GT3 wing. I have contacted suncoast if it will fit the narrow body, but they said they won't know until they reach showrooms in August or September.

Aerokit front, GT3 rear. Classic!

agreed!

997 GT3 was narrow body correct? If so, a 7MT, powerkit, areokit front and GT3 rear on a C2S would be as close to 997 GT3 as possible!

I see a lot of Porsches of all types riding around with the auto wing up, even at a stop. Makes me wonder if they all have some sort of defect with their wing deployment system. Or, is it just posers who wish they had a rice rocket with a hugh wing hanging out back?

I think the stock wing in the up position does not look good. I am perplexed as to why someone would manually activate it.

When I'm down in Ft. Lauderdale/Boca/Miami on business, Porsche cars at restaurant valet stations always have the wing deployed when parked, even the Panameras. Guess it's the cool thing to do down there.

Understandable for panameras, the back is hideous without the wing deployed. On the 991, I have nothing nice to say

Agreed on the speed sensitive wing. However it doesn't look half bad when you lower it to make it parallel to the street.
Question, would the areokit front bumper be enough front downforce to counterbalance the gt3 wing?

Think my wing has only been up once & that was when I washed it, lol.
I thought it looked kind-of nice, but definitely need something else...
...I like big wings & spoilers, Slantnose has the DP extended turbo tail & my 964 was a RSA with fixed wing.
I'm just used to them.
That said, I do love the new GT3 one too.
Although the one Techart sells might be the way to go, though.

I like the way it looks in the rear view mirror when I am driving and the way is serves as a reminder to check the speedo.
