Post 2 questions...red calipers and GT3 wing adjustment

hey guys,
i had 2 questions:
1) how much should i expect to pay for 4 red boxter S calipers from the dealer? i'm not sure what going prices are. i'm in the bay area so i do expect prices to be slightly higher here. i have a '99 c2.

2) how do you adjust the rear wing on the factory aero kit? looks like you just loosen 2 allen head screws but i don't want to screw anything up so i'm gonna ask you guys first.
thanks!

you're better off just painting the calipers as the s calipers are the same as the C2 ones.

really? i thought i read here before that people could buy a set of 4 for around 1200 from the dealer and then sell their stock ones on ebay for around 600. net, youre spending 600 but they are already painted and have the porsche letters, all OEM.

on the wing, undo the allen head screws, the wing should lift up reposition the metal things in the hole that is the height you want, and put the screw back in, Note for some reason you can only get on screw back in, however I have been running with only one screw on each slde for 20K miles and there have been no problems.
