Default The perfect 992 Spoiler

If only Porsche would produce this for the 992. The Aerokit just doesn't look right in my eyes now:

I've read on here there will be a version of the 992 with a ducktail.

I'd rather have the wing type spoiler as per aerokit personally, but its good we are all different and don't want the same things.

I’d be happy with an old fashioned ducktail

i prefer the wing to the duck and the barely visible little upturn.

That one seems too small to notice in my eyes. I liked the 991.1 ducktail, that was cool. I think the aerokit looks great in some of the pictures, but I would have a hard time driving that to the hospital...

This would complement the sport design front fascia beautifully, for those that love the look of a 991 but can’t stomach buying a more affordable car.

A 992 ducktail would need to be larger to be of interest to me. In some photos the Aerokit rear wing looks good; in others the wing tip angles look at odds with the lines of the car at the rear, making it look like an Ebay bolt-on.

Spot on. The gt3rs and gt4 have fantastic wings with thin slats. I just don’t understand why there so much plastic furniture holding the wing up.

I'm not into appearance aero. If it's functional, great. Otherwise, it doesn't need to be there.
