These pictures are torture!

I recently picked up a speed yellow GT3 and I really want an RS wing. Seeing your car with the wing installed is making really hard to resist making the purchase!

I'm thinking I at least need to get to the track a few times before I start buying mods...

Rennlist helped me with my wing decision. I went used OEM and am very happy. The whole car feels more planted in a way that builds more confidence in the corners.

I've been negligent though and haven't posted pics. Now's the time!
I included one of the car stock - it's just a picture I like that Lucas Scarfone (professional automotive photographer) took.

if you haven't already, get the cup front splitter (fvd.us has them) they are cheaper than the 'regular' one and add additional df at the front!

I don't know... I'm really wanting to move RS wing up higher on the list. I'm thinking it's cup splitter and winger next :-)

If you aren't running track pads already, that should be moved up. Braking is one of the most important things your car does!
