I am interested in a rear spoiler/wing. I like the TECHART I and III because they keep the factory deck lid with full function. My question is what do they look like with the stock spoiler deployed? I can't seem to find any pictures anywhere. I want to balance the front with some type of lip but I don't like the TECHART style. Who makes a GT style one to fit a 997.1 Carrera S, the Hartman one is an option but I think it's too much. Anyone have these and how hard was installation if you did it yourself. Quality?
Thanks

looks good for towing skateboarders. they could hold on or perhaps wrap a line around it.

I bet those skate boarders are going to be scared silly once the car accelerates into the upper 90's.

Does the techart wing actually accomplish anything aerodynamically or is it just cosmetic?

I love the Turbo wing, but don't want to go through the trouble and expense to change the whole deck lid. Thank you for the picture of the type I wing up, I also think it looks a little weird. When the deck lid raises does it block the techart type III wing completely?

Bruce R needs one of these. He could then see when the spoiler is up.

He was saying in another thread, "It's always bugged me that I can't see my spoiler when it is raised up. So I mounted up a cam and captured some never before seen footage."

I too don't care for not being able to see my rear wing deployed on the 997.2 C2S. Not sure why this matters much, but it does Next week I'm putting my '09 turbo wing on my 997.2 C2S. It's basically plug-n-play w.r.t. fit, though some wiring and cutting down of the snorkels is necessary for full function. Should be out of the paint shop Tuesday for a Wednesday fitting. I'll post pics.

Interested in asthetic reasons or functional?

I think if you choose the right wing you can accomplish both..... based on how cars are driven here in the states though I believe 95% of the mod will go to asthetic and 5% to function. These cars are so capable near stock form performance wise compared to the limits most owners will go.....but base and even most S 997's in the looks departement are lacking. Unless you get an unique color combo like yours. Just my humble opnion.

Eager to see the results! May need to swap your air box....
