Default Gemballa spoiler pics

I have the opportunity to purchase a rear Gemballa spoiler and deck lid for my 96 993 but I am unsure of how it will look on the car. Anyone have any pics? If they were a Polar Silver 993 would be even better. I don't know if polar silver suits the wing.

Thanks in advance
Ron

Use the Search function.

I've posted a thread with the images you seek on my Arctic Silver cab.

IIRC before I did the upgrade myself, I looked and couldn't find any silver cars with that wing other than the one in the Gemballa online catalog (Unfortunately I think the catalog is no longer available.)

If it's Gemballa, there is a 100 percent chance that most of the time, people are going to make fun of your car. FYI.

Why do you say that so carte blanche?
I would agree that much of their styling can be over the top, but the base rear wing is IMHO more subtle than the OEM Aerokit 1B.

I don't think there are too many people making fun of me. Mine is a Gemballa Rs tail, which is similar to the aerokit tail, but with a painted grill. I think it's pretty sweet. Anyway, mine is polar silver, absolutely pristine (car has 26K miles) and includes a clear bra.

I've been contemplating a switch to the 3.8 Rs tail to get a bit better downforce match to my front GT-2 splitter. Make me an offer.

I don't think everything Gemballa makes is over the top and ofcourse the Gemballa Competition wheels are always well received with the Porsche community. And definately nobody is making fun of Glen's car

Glen I do the same drive usually on Sundays. Live about 5 minutes from the dealership. Bought my 95 from them. Saw your car and was going to stop but work called etc... Recognised the car from your posts nice mods in the short time you have owned it. Mine is still stock the slippery slope is nearing-Paul
