That's awesome! Was about to PM you to see if you found a local source who could ship faster than the 5-6 weeks. I'm leaning heavily into this Darwin Pro rear lip as well b/c it seems like a PITA to do any rear wing on our cars b/c of the need to figure out the third brake light situation, coding, etc. I thought this lip looked great on that white wheelsboutique 992 w/ the AL13 rims. Did you order directly through their website? Thanks.

Had enough film for 3 photos left ....fitment is perfect. Interesting side effect, I now can see in all 3 rear view mirrors when my spoiler is up.

Looks really good. Naked carbon works well w/ your color. I’ll probably paint mine if I get one as my car is red. Can you post what it looks like w/ spoiler raised?

Here we go. The longer I have that spoiler the more I like it. It gives the rear that little extra edge and is actually a small duckbill lip angling up vs the very small TA style strips. For now I keep it CF and add maybe CF mirrors to complete the look.
PS: Small detail - the spoiler wraps entirely around the lower edge of the OEM panel and gives it a nice finished look that way. When closed, there is no gap (aka remains of the OEM spoiler panel left) between the CF and lightbar below.

What the install? Just peel and stick?

Yes, DarwinPro delivers it with tape already applied. I often find aftermarket pieces that don't fit the exact shape of the car bumper/wing/panel and you have to make them comply with the shape of the OEM counterpart ...not this one, it fits the shape perfect including around the edges. I was impressed.

I asked the same question in a separate thread before...see what people thought about it.
If it helps, I also installed the sport front lip to counter ;-)

not read yet ... anyway, I wouldn't be worried about the safety, stability, etc of the car.... but just the support resistance (internally not structurally) not designed to support additional down forces

but ... it is another thought ... time will tell...
