Default Mounting aftermarket RS spoiler for 996 GT3

Looking at mounting an aftermarket RS spoiler (raw CF, no fittings supplied) and trying to figure out how to purchase and mount the bracket to attach to the stock uprights. As everything aftermarket, it's a PIA!

Pic attached is of the standard GT3 wing mount. I understand the aluminum bracket pictured cannot be sourced separately from Porsche?

The spoiler I am looking at has the contoured recess in the wing itself, but no mounting hardware.

Anyone make the curved L-bracket that I can mount up? I don't want to unrivet the bracket from my stock wing for obvious reasons.

Someone must have dealt with this before - aftermarket source? Have something fabricated? F it altogether?

Thanks in advance for any leads.

Cheers

Matt

MaCarbon? Ask them if they have the mount. Mike

Thanks for the suggestion. Don't see any spoilers on their site, but will call.

Best,

Matt

Fabbing that up should be pretty easy if you need to.

Is this the one you are talking about? Price is very interesting if it bolts right up.

I'm reconsidering my plan to locate mounting brackets.

We'll see, but I can't yet confirm the part builder thought through a robust mounting base beneath the CF skin. You can 'attach' anything - but I want to ensure it's really solid (for obvious reasons).
