all of your opinions counts a lot as what they say we are the people with the EYE for a 993

naaaaaaa. The S wing is too softcore (perfect for an original car). However the BBS wheels you got there are so muuuuuuch hardcore - they are screaming for more rennsport spirit.

Tough call. I'm not a big fan of your current wing (and have never really liked the melted look of the stock TT spoiler) but think a GT2 wing might be a bit much for a street car. Functionally, the air inlets could be plumbed to ram air into the engine at high speeds, an approach that I considered before I chose my RS 3.8 wing. As Rick mentions, downforce will not really enter into much of a driving situation, unless your're tracking the car or doing a Cannonball Run type of race. Of course, if you're looking for that extra bit of pizzazz to go with that gorgeous yellow paint, then the GT2 wing might be icing on the cake.

All of that said, I think your current wing looks good with the car, and the car looks good with the wing.

Good luck and have fun.

Your car is already not subtle. Show the beast that will be inside and get that GT2 wing. IMHO of course.

Another vote to keep the turbo-S wing.
Keep it subtle on the exterior - IMHO the other will look too rice/ modder/ bling with the RUF bumpers.
