Looks great!
I also have the Manthey piece. Fit was not an issue, double-sided 3M tape has held it in place to speeds up to 147 (indicated).

Did you happen to ask if they would make a batch if there was enough pre-interest? I've been looking at that one since you started this thread.

Spoke with Mark @ Getty this morning. He makes this piece. He uses a factory deck lid to fabricate the fit, then ships the piece to you. This may be the best route to take if I decide I want to pursue it.

Thanks for the info. I might do that too.

I finally gave up waiting and asked PorscheShop to refund my money. Adam writes back that the piece shipped 7/28. The door bell rings, UPS has my spoiler! Not a bad fit so I dropped it off to the paint shop.
Coincidentally, I recieved this note from Thomas Nater of AP Car Design last night:

Hi David,

Holger will send you an offer next week via Mail for the 996 GT3 MK2 RS Air Ram System

Kind regards

Thomas

I called Getty a couple of weeks ago to see if he'd make one for me, but he said he needed the deck lid off of my car to make one for me. Unfortunately I live up in Seattle or I'd lend him my car to make a batch. If you can talk him into making some, I'll go in on a group buy.

Thanks,

Justin
