Looks like the one from the original aerokit. Note that the original spoiler has been removed like it was on the original kit. Jeff

You can buy just the wing. The stock spoiler is removed. The metal trunk lid is replaced with a plastic one that is longer so it covers the gap where the stock spoiler was.

You can order the wing from any Porsche dealer. You do not need to buy the entire AeroKit I. Keep in mind the wing on the AeroKit II is different than that picture. 2002 was the first year for II.

Hmmm, the book says that you can't purchase just the spoiler, you have to order the whole kit? Is this for 2004 and above only?

i was lucky, by chance i got the extended deck lid, wire harness, spoiler, and 3rd brake light from a dealeship out of kit that had a trashed bumper for 600 shipped. Normally, the wing is about 900 alone but can be purchased. Renlist user "gert" has a set up for sale. Give him a try. If it that dosent work drop me a PM and i will get you into contact with one but its not cheap.

I have the TSBs for AeroKit I and II. They list the individual part numbers. The wing for I is 986 512 992 00. Call any dealer with this part number.

If you are looking at one of the tequipment booklets they only list the entire kit as one part number. Porsche says you have to install the entire kit and just not individual parts for aerodynamic reasons.

Any guesstimates of how much one of these wings would reduce lap times?
