Drive a 2005 Carrera S and I am considering a spoiler. What genuine Porsche spoiler fits my car? Thanks, Attachment 1048334Attachment 1048335

the only genuine or OEM wing that I can think of is the aero or GT3 wing. you should consider aftermarket or replica & they're much cheaper.

Spoilers are part of the decklid so you can use any 997.1 decklid with spoiler, including those from a Twin Turbo or GT car. A new wiring harnesses may be needed, like in the case of a TT spoiler that needs to control the wing hydraulics. Airboxes / intakes might need to be changed, as well as engine fan and/or mounting position.

I changed the OEM rear decklid and spoiler on one of our '05 997s to a TT one and others since have also done some good DIY write-ups you can find. Also popular right now are ducktail conversions for a more retro look. Here are some pics of the TT conversion on my wife's c2s.

Doug_M recently did a ducktail conversion on a 997.1. Maybe shoot him a PM for brand, parts list, etc
