Default New Rear Wing Techart type III

Just had a new rear wing installed on my wife's 997 S Cab... We like it, but it's not everybody's cup of tea.









Cheers All

How does it function vis-a-vis the existing factory spoiler?

Doesn't the tea fall off or is that stuck on with glue as well?

Yours looks better than mine did. I sent it back when it came in. I'm looking for something else

This is the best shot I have in the file. Full side shot in a day or two.

No, The moving vent is disconnected, and the airflow is pulled throught the vents. No motor action, and the whole thing is hinged with the cover. Clearance is kept away from the motion of the crescent top boot when in motion.

I love the wing, it looks very balance with the entire car, as if original. IMO you have good taste!!

Damn, I really like it--it's nice and subtle. BUT, I wish the spoiler still raised up and down. I like the up/down, adds some coolness/gadgetry to the car


What wings still operate along side the motor up/down?

Very, Very, Very, NICE!! I have the TechArt Stage I spoiler on my C4S Midnight Blue....It's subtle, but adds a little eye appeal. My spoiler functions as normal as it's just a bolt on.... However, I REALLY like your stage III. Nice color as well. I am partial to Guards Red, my second choice was Carman Red...However, my Midnight Blue had EVERYTHING I wanted.......Next will be a special color...Pearl Yellow....Just OUTSTANDING!! Anyway...very nice!!! Good choice!!

Absolutely beautiful! Very tasteful.

I was only considering a Stage I. I thought the others were too much for a straight S, perfect for Turbos, GT's and aero'd p-cars, though. I'm glad that I saw this. I am now officially considering this stage III, also. Imitation is the most sincere form of flattery. 'nuf said.

Is that a coton d'tulear or a maltese? My best friend is a coton.
