I fully disassembled the spoiler - I actually used a C2 setup I bought off of ebay so I wouldn't have the modify my stock one. I removed the motor, bellows, and all other accessories - you have to do this to mount the stock GT3 mini-duck onto the platform, and then add the "hooks" off off the GT3 (or TTS actually). I have one of the Chinese copies of this mini-duck in carbon - it's pretty close to the same profile and only cost $500. The screens are not nearly the quality of the Porsche piece, but could be modified with better screen to achieve the same look. Also, the Chinese version mounts to the raisable arms - IE bolts on to the old pratform - this is somewhat problematic as you cannot readily adjust the body gaps accurately, and you are stuck with the weight of all the unused components. If I were to use the Chinese version, I would change the mounts to the same as the GT3 unit - shouldn't be too hard.

I really think this is the best path forward to achieve this look - use a stock platform with all components removed, modify the Chinese carbon spoiler to use better screens, and employ the standard OEM mounts (hooks and 2 bolts), and then program via PIWIS as a fixed "aerokit" spoiler.

Does the new mini duck wing still open and close like the original touring wing?
Sorry I’m not as good at this is you guys are

The wing car has a different sub plate that is carbon fiber, and also a different intake air plenum. Here are a few photos of test fit with all OEM wing parts on a Touring . .






I really like the look of this, so now off to paint shop to get painted GT Silver. I also have a Moshhammer GT3 Touring Duck on order, so will compare the two once both painted up and installed .. .


saw this beauty on the street today parked
Didn’t get a chance to see and talk to the guy to ask him who did it and his experience

Why the redundant GT3 badging? Was it a touring he added the wing lid to or a wing car he added the touring cover on to?

Touring’s always have the double badging. In that photo he added the regular GT3’s duck tail.

Only the badge on the cover. No badging on the bumper.

What is the purpose of the deployable spoiler? Is there any additional reason Porsche put it there other than increased downforce?

My Moshammer duck showed up yesterday - very nice piece, but I think I like the stock GT3 better. If anyone is interested in the Moshammer GT3T duck, I'll sell it for $2,000 shipped - just opened to inspect so brand new, no waiting, and no import. . .
