Does anybody have any info on where to get the lighter strut? Part number? I just installed an RPG one and it does feel like there's a little too much resistance when closing the lid. Fit and finish of Getty does look better than RPG (oh well). Also, I used a Foxwell to code in a fixed spoiler but I still get a 'raised brake light' error, so I ended up ordering the fixed wing harness w/ brake light. Will get here in a week or so, so I'll see if that helps.
Did you buy the RPG carbon fiber CFRP ducktail, and if so, any photos?
I'm interested in that myself but never seen anyone with pictures of it.
The green car in your first post with the CSR reg plate is actually from an indy here in the UK ( RPM Technik), they do a “Singer” style build for 996 & 997 under the CSR moniker.
The ducktails are made from carbon fibre in the same factory that makes Redbull and McLaren F1 parts, I have one installed on my 997.2 and can recommend it 100%. Fit and finish is OEM.
I agree if you are getting the ducktail get the third brake light delete panel. Lastly you will need a new harness and strut.
Or go the whole way and get pepita seat inserts also.... this is the OEM agate grey fabric from the 911R and 50th anniversary.
Can the seats be done without removing the leather ala bucket seat inserts?
