sideplates look bigger than oem and the bolt heads are the same ones that are found on a Manthey wing
I got this picture from Bill at Rennworx -- USA Manthey Dist.
Looks similar... but you may want to send your pics directly to Bill and have him take a look.

In your photos, the fastners for the side plates are different that what I have seen for the Porsche AG supplied 996 GT3 RS wings (and 997 GT3 RS as well). The side plates also have a recessed area for each fastner. I do not know if there was a design change on the side plates.
I'm doing some more checking.
Viperbob says Porsche made a mistake on the 1 Feb 2008 price increases for GT2 and GT3 parts, and Porsche dealers are getting new information.

Also note the weave on the oem side plate is horizontal versus the other brand being vertical. The mounting brackets on the one you asked about look good.
RS Wing weight. Unfortunately, I didn't use very accurate scales but I measured it at 6 lbs and the standard wing at 8 lbs.

Looks like a good deal... I would jump on it but I am waiting on delivery of CF Manthey wing, air collector, splitter and mirrors... from Bill at Rennworx

I maybe missing something but I thought the Wing in this picture http://sfbay.craigslist.org/pen/pts/579430186.html was discussed eariler in the thread. There are many companies that make replica RS Wings.

I thought so too, as the pics looked familiar (I think it belongs to someone here). But when I searched thru the thread I didn't see it, so I posted the link. It's definately a knock-off, but that's all I know about it other than what's in the ad.
