Jack,
I like the ducktail spoiler look too.... That's why I wonder how it would look on a widebody....

Phil,

I think it would look awesome. From the rear, the duck seems to visually make the fenders appear even wider than without the spoiler.

You would probably have the first WB so equipped. At least I haven't seen or heard of any others.

The neat thing about it is that is easy to swap back to the stock lid if you so desire. When you lift that heavy thing off, you probably won't want to go back to stock, though.

Come on, take a walk on the wild side.

Looks awsome, the ducktail is always something I wanted to do with my old 993.

Well we'll soon find out how it looks on a Wide Body. I just purchased the one that was on sale from Rennspeed for $325.00, it might be awhile before I post pictures but when it's done I'll definitely post them on the board.

Phil, that is one nice car. It was featured in a magazine several years ago. I think it looks awesome!

That is a gorgeous car. What sort of rims are those as the tyres look quite low-profile? I don't recall ever having seen Fuchs like that.

Cheers,

David

The wheels are Lindsey Racing Fuchs - see here:

What do you think they'd look like on a 993? Perhaps an England group buy would be in order..........? They're certainly a hell of a lot nicer than those PS Autoart things!

Regards

Oliver

Thumbs up

Nice!

Fantastic car and beautiful wheels. Much nicer than PSArt's crappy looking things. Why didn't they use these? Mind you who would want a wing with a filler pannel down to the (lower) old style bumper?!

Hi Scott,

That looks great. Thanks for posting the pictures. I like the positioning of the script on the tail!

Cheers,

David
