Default knockoff aerokit spoiler and duck

I found this site which they seem to mold similar duck spoiler and aerokit spoiler.

what do you think? they look very close to the real deal with a cheaper price. even comes painted with your body color for a small fee.

You know what I say, if it's too good to be true, it is.

Cheap? $$ Yes. You get what you pay for in inferior quality.

NR, Wicked, now these guys. I say buyer beware. More expensive losing money, or having to buy over again. Best to do it right the first time. Cheaper in the long run.

Suncoast has the OEM ducktail for $1,895.00

Really worth buying a ripoff low quality one for a $446.00 savings?

In my many years of modding cars, I have found that no Non-OEM parts ever fit correctly, they always need some sort of adjustment. Im not talking about parts like Vorsteiner that actually cost more then OEm parts, but OEM knock offs. On a car like this at this price point I don't think the cost savings is justified.

For OEM style parts... OEM or nothing.

Also, the back light is not included. Wonder what that will cost. Be mindful that you may be seriously changing the front down force without the sport design front spoiler. The 911 starts to drift without the enhanced rear spoilers at 120 mph. My view is go OEM or don't do it.

How much downforce will that roof spoiler provide?

These guys have been around for years and make high quality parts at a discount to OEM if that's the route you choose to go

http://www.mashaw.com/html/product_info.html

When I looked into it for 993 aerokits numerous years ago I found the labor involved to prep and install a cheaper part ate into any savings you might see from those cheaper parts.

(MA Shaw is an exception to that)
