While trying to research why the 997.2 gt3 decklid has a gurney flap but the 997.1 rs does not, I came across the below thread with 997.1 rs wing on nb gt3 pics.

I did a 997.2 cup deck lid with modified cup uprights, .2 rs wing, .2 cup endplates, and gurney flap. The modification is to the top of the upright to allow the oem RS wing to attach to it. You cut the upper portion of the upright to match the factory angle of attack (Using the front upper portion as a starting point, you will cut across in a slight incline following the wing angle). With the modified cup uprights, the wing is 11cm (4.3 inches) higher at the mounting points and 8.4cm (3.3 inches) further back with relation to the stock wing. The cup wing end plates increase the effectiveness of the wing tremendously (they are larger in surface are and have most of the area under the wing). New holes are drilled and countersunk for the Anhedral wing location (in order to mount them in the correct location with relation to leading and trailing edge as well as height on wing). The original holes are filled. I adjusted the wing end plates up 10mm as I would be adding a 10mm gurney flap to the edge of the wing.

Anyone have engine side ( under side) pictures of their GT3 RS decklids. Seems like there are several differences on the underside due to intakes. Just curious if there is a manufacturer making one that provides direct airflow to both sides. Instead of just left or right.

Here is mine, it is a bit dirty from my last drive and ignore the white it is a reflection of the closed/insulated garage door in the paint.

For both side air inlets, I think you’ll need a RS style decklid. Getty design makes some. Apparently they can make a ducktail decklid with dual air holes to match up to a RS style dual intake airbox from Sharkwerks. Sounds good to me lol
