Talking Scored a Porsche Motorsport GT2 Wing

I found an old stock, brand new factory Porsche Motorsports GT2 wing today at a local distributor. It is made of carbon-kevlar and weighs an incredible 10 lbs. The thing is beautiful. It had been sitting in inventory for the past 4 years. I can not even image the current value of this thing when looking at a normal Turbo wing pricing out around $4K from the dealer. I can not say what I bought it for, but it was less than a fiberglass replica.... SWEET!






Notice the carbon kevlar weave inside the wing angle adjustment panel.





Look for this on my car VERY soon. Anyone need a Turbos S tail? How about a Turbo S from bumper / spoiler with the bumperettes removed and the license plate holes filled?

Bob,
That thing is going to look absolutely horrible...I mean pathetic...I mean downright ugly on your car. It will ruin the looks of your car, disrupt the aerodynamics and destroy your balance.
The only right thing for you to do is to box it up and send it to me for a reasonable price.

Seriously, If you can't tell...I'm envious. I think this is one of the greatest tails and I can't stop thinking about putting on on my SY C2S. Please post lots of pics when you can - I'm really eager to see how these look from various angles on a widebody.

Cheers,

Rick

Bob neglected to mention that turbo or "S" front bumper covers also fit narrow bodied cars...

Bob - Very cool. You will notice a pretty decent drop in oil temps with that wing on.

I found my carbon fiber AIR version for pretty cheap too , but then again its not factory parts nice.

Princeton,

If my oil temps get any cooler, I will need to install a heater to get my motor up to temp even on the track...
