Default Have a GT2 aftermarket wing on your TT?

What if anything have you put over the inlets on either side of the wing to make it look good? I bought my aftermarket GT2 wing from Precision Porsche and the inside of the inlets are not finished. I dont see how you could even have that area finished/painted. I asked a few owners without any leads. Is there a plastic cover out there that fits it? Pictures would be great. Thanks.

I'm thinking maybe black "trunk" paint. The kind of paint that has texture in it. Maybe that would make it look somewhat better. I thought about maybe some kind of black thin rubber liner material as well.

Any way you can post a picture? Is the mesh over the top of the hole or somewhere pushed inside of it? Is the mesh a custom piece or did you buy it, thanks.

I checked all my online pics and saw none that show the mesh... I bought the car with it as seen in pics elsewhere, so I don't know if it came like that or the previous owner did a custom instal (as I have with my own grill mesh kit). It is mounted from the inside and curves around the opening from the inside. Looks like it came that way from the vendor.

I'll try to post some pics over the next few days for you, but I'm running around like mad lately, so be patient.

Ill snap one after work for you. In thinking about it, I think the plastic piece is more of a tube that directs air into the center of the wing plenum. I dropped a short screwdriver into the intake (don't ask) and had to remove the plastic to get screwdriver out!
