Wow Slantnose, so you really didn't install the new control module for your sunroof? I am contemplating on bringing the module to the dealer or shop for install, and also letting them rewire the wiring on the bottom of the driver seat. And I will install my aerokit wing myself.
Hmm...kinda like it [991.2 mini-ducktail as I call it] but decided to add a bit of CF flavor and uniqueness to my 991S. So instead of going with the flow and adding a Sports Design ducktail (had the sports design front bumper retrofited after a fender bender in Aug while in Vegas) or the full GT3 AeroCup kit treatments; I went a different route and installed the Vorsteiner 991 CF rear deck spoiler his weekend! Great purchase experience and shipping w/TAG Motorsports (thanks again Alex - also got my Akrapovic from these guys too...awesome to work with). Belated Xmas/New Years gift to me!
Pleased with fitment and install easy enough although I went through 2 sets of double sidded 3M tapE. Saw some similar ones on ebay for 1/2 the cost but figured you get what you pay for and have had/heard of fitment issues with ebay knockoff CF pieces [from Asia mostly] so gave them a wide birth. Install advice to all who install exterior parts...test fit multiple times and when using double sided 3M tape pre-pull multiple portions of your tape [prior to final placement] to better insure the ability to re-fit the pieces if your placement is off by a few mm's. Also helps ease final figment once you finally are ready to place your part; then use masking tape or some other type of strong tape to hold in place while 3M tape or epoxy dries/sets if used.
So far I like the contrast with the car's colors [Agate Grey] and dark black moon roof and panels [also retrofitted] and feel they give it a nice contrasted look. Cold have painted the Vorsteiner piece but think the CF goes well and isn't overkill especially since I have the full CF interior in the car. Maybe CF GT3 mirrors at a later date? Have seen a nice set by MA Carbon as well as other bit. Additionally since I also plan to retrofit the black GTS engine cover grilles to the care as a future upgrade; that should contrast nicely also I think. Enjoy gents and love all of your cars! ��
Yeah I know it's not a duck and also not a 991.2 spoiler but I think is a nice compromise for the cost and easy DIY. ����
I didn't install the sunroof module either, as I've never used the sunroof. Porsche recommends it with the ducktail because apparently it improves the aero by limiting the amount the sunroof can open with the addition of the duck.
...Additionally, when you order the ducktail, you also need to order the mounting kit with it for another ~$1270. I was surprised to learn the ducktail did not come complete with the mounting parts.
Did u mean to say $1270? That is 2/3 the cost of the Ducktail. I would not be interested at that cost.
You have to order the sunroof module separately, i.e. tell Suncoast or your parts department which 991 model you have so you can purchase the correct module for your sunroof ECU. Additionally, when you order the ducktail, you also need to order the mounting kit with it for another ~$1270. I was surprised to learn the ducktail did not come complete with the mounting parts.
@Captainkirk, PM as many have on it, no issues on air flow, or temp having said sir, installation is extremely easy, and doable at home. It's on instagram, and other sites for purchase.

That mini ducktail looks really smart as well, real class ! I'm jealous !
Yes, I meant $1,270. And yes, the installation kit is required. It's not just a couple of screws. The existing speed activated spoiler mounting system and motor come out, and a new mounting plate and brackets, etc. get installed. The ducktail THEN attaches to the mounting plate.
