Good call, put a GT2/RSR wing on it if you can. Evo if your a mad man.


SuperCup tail is usually called a RS Club Sport or M003. It is designed more for a narrow body car.

The PO of my car had a GT2 wing in Polar Silver. I decided not to take it as I have no use for it. If you're interested in buying it she might still have it, I can get you in touch with her.

Thatcher you need a GT2 wing on that car man. That and a set of speedlines (993RS style but with deeper lips and center in gray) would really complete the package. Awesome build!

Thatcher,

Finally - I did ask why in an earlier thread - glad you have decided to step it up and put a more correct wing on.....

I would go with the Supercup Wing. Since it is an RSR look and they didn't have a the GT2 rear wing.

RSR/GT2 wings are the same.

Supercup,cup,RS club sport is the narrow body type.

Correct wing for the RSR/GT2/This build


Narrow body wing not correct for this build.


Most obvious difference is the inlet shape

I have a RSCS wing (in silver color too) hanging on my garage wall but with the GT2 flares, you need a GT2 wing. And I'll paint mine G. Red some day so I can swap when I feel the "need".
The 3.8 wing you have now definitely is not as cool as GT2 wing is so right move to go with different one.

Sorry but the GT2 Tail is for a Turbo and the Supercup RS/CS is for the non-Turbo.

Here a Pic of a real RSR

Every factory RSR I have come in contact with had the GT2 tail standard from Porsche Motorsport.


Maybe they used both, but I will say that is the first M003 tail I have ever seen on a RSR.
The badging looks unusual as well.

My vote goes to this wing. It would look killer on your car. that said, Im building the same body kit right now on my race car. I have the same 3.8 wing you have right now and I plan on using it and adding a Bananna wing onto it for now Plus I really don't need the air scoops on the wing and its drag I could do with out since Im a NA car. I can always change mine out later when I get extra $$$ and want to change the look of my car If you are going to leave yours with a lower wing element then use this one. I like the size and shape of the air inlets better no matter what is actually correct factory for the RSR...

FWIW

Here are other pictures of factory RSRs. Seems like true RSR race cars used the 3.8L with Banana wing.
