Four options I would change if I could order again. (sadly not in the cards for me).

1. Aerokit. - 100% would do.
2. Colored Seat Belts - 100% would do.
3. Color change - love my color but probably would go another route. - 75% would do.
4. Exclusive Manufaktur interior - this is the least likely change I would make. 40% - rather pricey.

I LOVE the look of the 992 GT3 with a wing-delete. I think the subtle lines of the factory rear are superb and I wish I could find the OEM part to install on my GTS.. (at a reasonable cost).

IMO this is by far the nicest 992 rear-end configuration. I'd get it if you could get it OEM or as a quality 3rd party part.

Not all ducktails increase drag. According to the engineers, the ducktail on the Carrera RS actually reduced drag.

Some interesting quotes from the linked article with key considerations for folks adding ducks etc:

"Together with the front airdam developed just a short time before, the chosen design reduced lift, increased air cooling to the engine and actually reduced drag."
[...]
"“They had to order both the front and rear spoiler together!” emphasizes Brodbeck."
