I have the flying ducktail and while it is great, I thought the ducktail in the lifted position was a bit over the top, so disabled the lift using the Foxwell NT520 diagostic/programming tool.

Does look tall when spoiler is lifted but looks great down. I assume no over-heating issues if it does not raise?

Updates from the creator Steve of the ducktail. BTW, just want to put it out there that I have no affiliation with this guy Steve and his company that sells this product. Just an enthusiast that has been looking for this ducktail.

Timing - He said he's in the process of moving his factory now. His ETA of when he can start producing the ducktails again will be in May or June.
Quantity - It will be limited, he said he will only make 20-30 pieces this run.
Material - His original design is made in carbon fiber with a aluminum grill. I asked if he can make it in fiberglass to bring down the costs and he will look into it. He said the BaysonR ducktail is a copy of his.
Pricing is TBD - He initially said $1000-$1200 for the carbon fiber version, but he would need to check on that price. I asked him for how much in fiberglass, and he said have to see.

Would like to get a headcount of people that are still interested and then go back to Steve with that to see what's the best pricing he can do. Please add your name below if you are interested.

I’m in! $1000 is a little steep, would be great if he could match or beat the Bayson R price

2. PierW - ideally the Fiberglass version as $1K+ is a bit more than I'm looking to spend as well.

I just had the Misha Ducktail installed, and am very happy with the result.
