Finally got my new rear deck with GT3RS wing back from the body shop.
They painted it 3 times because the owner didn’t like the first two attempts.
He’s a multi-Porsche owner.

Small but potentially important mod here. I replaced my license plate lights. I have driven the car after dark probably 3 times total. It's a cabriolet and usually reserved for nice sunny days. Was out on a date night with the wife and she was getting the mail at the end of the driveway while I pulled it into the garage. She said "you know you can't read your license plate AT ALL right?"
I bought the car last July and checked all tail lights, brake lights, reverse lights, etc - but never realized that some asshat put BLUE LED's in the license plate lights. On top of my smoked license plate cover you literally couldn't make out a single letter 10 feet away! Swapped out with some standard bulbs and checked it last night in the dark. The smoked cover is no problem anymore - you can read every letter from a good safe distance. I don't need to give the local LEO's a mechanical probable cause to pull me over, my foot should be the only thing I need to be concerned about!

Thanks!
My wife prefers the Taco spoiler, or so she said before I bought the new one.
They're so easy to swap out that I might just keep the Taco spoiler and swap it out from time to time like my headlights.
The MAShaw Taco spoiler is definitely better quality underneath deck-wise.
But the carbon fiber wing is excellent, except for a slight bit of clearcoat damage caused by UPS.
The new deck and wing are lighter than the Taco spoiler, which was a little lighter than the factory speed activated spoiler.
