Finally got back around to tinting the large light strip. Not sure if I like it or not so it may come back off after I detail the car tomorrow.

I think it looks good from the photos.. Wondering if anyone is coming up with the clear like the 3rd break light and the front indicators. I might consider doing a swap, or alternatively what you did with the tint.

Let us know how you think it looks after the detail and up close. lot less expensive (and reversible mod) the way you did it. Curious to see what it looks like lit up - still easily visible?

Thanks for experimenting for us, look forward to your final verdict...

Bought from Suncoast - they had a sale as I recall
it still not cheap ( it’s a Porsche after all). Painted , installed at dealer. It was done with a lot of other stuff ie / lowering springs , back up camera , hard wired Escort Passport , etc. The duck alone was near $5 g which hurts. A lot. If you can buy it, have it painted and install yourself I’ll be that’s the way to go. Problem is , it messed with OEM wing and 3rd brake light. So I had dealer do it.

I highly recommend ordering 2yds so you can do it as one piece with no seams. Heat gun will be your best friend.

5g for the ducktail unpainted? Well that would mean that the 992 aerokit fin will be at least that
much if not more.... plus paint.... maybe self installed?

6k min? holy ****.....

Steven , I’m saying 5g for all everything - the duck , paint , install ,transfer of brake light , programming for ECU since “gurney flap” function is disabled , etc. Not cheap and maybe I shouldn’t have done it at the dealer but it was flawless and looked awesome. I didn’t change the front splitter / bumper which is apparently a no no. I never took the car over 110 mph. Actually, I never took it over the legal speed limit wink wink nudge nudge.
