It is my car on the end. Bayson R makes it. I think it's pretty rare. I've only seen one other car with it online. Fitment was decently good. I like that it keeps the active aero.

Here's a better close up. The picture is a little misleading. It flows with the car lines. The biggest fitment issue is a little bit of a gap at the top which isn't noticeable a few feet away.

Is that what was called the "flying ducktail" or a different product?

They have it titled as:
"RS STYLE SPOILER (FIBERGLASS) FOR 2005-2012 PORSCHE 911 TURBO / CARRERA (997)"

idk if I am allowed directly link the product but if you google Bayson R ducktail, you'll be able to find it.

Yes, I reluctantly sold. It was more car than I needed and a little too harsh for me. GTS is just right.

Its a Flying Ducktail replica. Pretty decent other than the grill work being pretty subpar on the one I received and the lack of the TBL provision for when the duck is in the up position.

I had no idea it was a replica. I really like the design. We did some basic sanding, but my grill was decent. TBL?

oh. Yeah. Not ideal. I ended up just mounting it inside the cavity so I wouldn't have to deal with a warning light.
