Default Dive planes?

I wonder if this is what Porsche was referencing when they said that dive planes were available for the front spoiler for those wanting to run higher angles on the rear spoiler in order to balance the added rear downforce?

Yup, that's what I was referencing. Also noted the extra extensions on the lower part of the lip.

I am pretty sure it is the replacement for the Cup S, possibly for the FIA GT series. The RSR is on another level up.
