Thumbs up Rinspeed 997 Rear Spoiler !



Hi, really need help on the Rinspeed Rear Spoiler !
Is Rinspeed still produce the above rear spoiler for 997 ???
I really like the Fit Rear Spoiler, without sacrifice the auto up & down of the 997 original rear spoiler !
Will appreciate any Porsche fans inputs & share info, I like to get spoiler

Thank you very much !

I didn't think Rinnspeed was still in business or selling these parts (?)

It's a great wing allowing the OEM spoiler functionality.

Are you saying the OE wing still rises on that? I put a getty wing on my car that looks very similar to the one pictured. I removed the rear OE "wing" and the new wing goes in it's place. The nice thing is the pistons go up in to the risers of the new wing so the system does not detect the wing missing. The rear light that is built into the OE wing was removed and when I hit 75 I get a "check rear spoiler light" which goes off in a few seconds.

I believe so. Here's another one from FVD but it replaces the OEM wing but still rises - like yours. Not cheap.

Why would you want it to rise? The angle of the blade while risen would be weird. Driving behind it would look like you left the trunk open(to non-porsche folks)

Do you have any idea of other produce the similar fit rear spoiler won't affect the movable factory rear spoiler

Is kind of pricey for the spoiler

Check out the GT3 997.2 rear wing- they make one that will fit on your car- if your car is lowered it will look good with it

To my eyes, it looks like the Rinspeed wing is mounted off on the side, not on top of the OEM wing. Seems like the Rinspeed wing would always remain stationary; when the OEM wing rises, it would be flushed just under the Rinspeed wing.
