Question 997 GT3 RS 4.0 Wing size?

Hello everyone,

Very simple question that I haven't been able to find an answer, what width is the wing is on the GT3 RS 4.0.

The reason I ask is because I have a cup car wing on my 997 GT3 but the police here in Japan are not liking the width of it recently so I'm going to give it a little chop chop and reduce the overall width. I don't like the height or wing stays of the RS 4.0 wing so I will be keeping my setup just with a width reduction.

Much appreciated if someone has this info, cheers!

Do what I did. Cup uprights and end plates and RS wing. Also added 10mm wicker

Thanks for the suggestions but I'm still trying to find out the size of the RS 4.0 wing, not really going to buy another wing when I already have one that I can modify.

Just over 57" on the forward facing side.

wow surprised that the cops in Japan are being strict on this! aren't they pretty loose when it comes to modifying cars?
