I like how it looks up, but I think it's a little more special and cool to wait and let it get up on it's own when you merge onto the freeway.

Also the Panny people that drive around my neighborhood to get groceries or pick up their snotty kids with it up all the time kinda ruined putting it up manually for me.

Dude, I don't give rats *ss if you don't like the factory spoiler or not. I do find it amusing that it's not "cool" to leave the spoiler extended because it ruins the look of the car but it's ok to slap on a spoiler that doesn't even retract so the look of the car is ruined all the time! Lol! Contradict much?

I said "to many one step above adding upgrade badges to a car".

So .... many share that the always up position could be considered ____________.

VERY big difference. If Porsche had meant for it to be up all the time it would'nt look the way it does. It would look like post above. BTW I couldnt care any less what people do with their spoiler.....don't really understand the "cool" comments either.

Real talk though, I'm picking up a TA Type II wing in a few months because I want more down force on track days. Does it have community approval STG?

That red one up top looks awful if you were 12' tall. Really flattering angle.

Seems just like the manual vs PDK or .1 vs .2 or whatever discussion to me... whatever wingy we have on the back of our own car is perfect and any others look terrible.

Ummmmmm .... consensus will be "not wind tunnel tested". Not sure what that piece will do for downforce.

The TechArt one doesn't look bad. Kinda like it.
