I scraped it the second day is it flexed with no problem and hardly any damage. For $350, it's not a bad option.

Very nicely done. It looks a bit deeper and more contoured than the stock aerokit chin spoiler.

Britt, awesome car you got there! Would it be possible to show some pics or the rear of the car with the wing up and down, and also if possible 3/4 from behind again up and down? I'm seriously considering buying the Strosek GT wing and would like to know how it looks from behind.

my car is still in the shop getting the DV replaced and porsche is diagnosing a "slight hesitation in the power delivery". If not for that i would have sounded off earlier. I had one of these lips. It looked great for 3 days, then the top seam (where the lip attaches to the car) proceeded to peel off like a banana. I still havent seen the "new design", so I'm hopeful that the quality is improved.

The wierd thing about the lip is that the bottom part (the scraper) is VERY thick (2cm), whilst the business end (that affixes to the car) had a seam that was literally 3mm. As we all know - the chain is only as strong as...

Default Neil did say

that in MK1 version it was too tight and shrinkage occured directly out of the mould, Greyghost how is yours nowadays, the design is essentially FAB if Neil can get it right ?

Britt,
the car looks even tighter, I didnt think that was possible.
honestly, yours has got to be the most tastefully done car I have seen!
cheers from a new 996TT owner. (I ordered my exhaust from Neil Yesterday)
