Default 7.2 narrow body with RS wing pictures

Does anybody have some pictures with a 7.2 GT3 with the 7.2 RS rear wing?

I have a pic of a 7.1 GT3 with a. 1 RS wing. I am in the middle of doing the same to my car. However for a. 2 example the prior poster nailed it. The BBi build is all you need...

Give me a few weeks and I'll post photos of my car once everything is installed

In the meantime, peruse this guy's Instagram (though his car is an .1 with .2 updates): http://instagram.com/mz997.2

Cool, keep ud updated on your project.

Are you going with OEM or aftermarket RS parts?

Thanks for the IG. I've been looking for a non black example since black hides the car's lines so well. Looking forward to pics of yours!

Tye, ngng and others, What is the best approach to adding a. 2 RS Wing to a non RS .1 and .2 GT3. All PCNA parts? PMNA parts? Aftermarket decklid with PCNA uprights wing and endplates? Obviously the intake must be modified for .1 guys. I'm considering selling my .1 RS wing kit and switching to .2. Thanks in advance!! Best Josh

All PMNA or Cup parts. If you don't want to spend the coin on oem parts then decklid is very important part, do not skimp on that. End plates are the least crucial and lots of choices there.

Remember, with the majority of "cheaper" options, you could end up spending more in the long run with prep work, fitment etc. Be patient and you will find deals on OEM parts

Lots of choices for airboxes as well

Thanks Tye. I should have been more clear. I want to use as many factory parts as possible. May I ask why you chose Cup parts instead of street RS parts. My 997.1 GT3 Cup wing required lots of prep and finishing to make it look right on a street car. Thanks again. JBO PS I know this has been discussed a ton but I figured there are lots of new owners considering this mod and there may be better options today than what was available 3-5 years ago.

Cup parts are cheaper, and in many instances they are 99% identical to the factory part (for example the .2 RS airbox).

Yep. I learned this when I bought my .1 Cup Wing. PMNA parts a lot cheaper. Do street .2 RS uprights mount directly to a .2 Cup decklid? Thanks guys. I appreciate the feedback. Like I said I'm considering selling my kit and purchasing a. 2 RS setup and it's a major expenditure. Thanks again!! Best Josh
