Announced (early summer 2012) about 7-9 months after the 991 went on sale in the US...available on 2013's, I believe.

If you want a spoiler I think that one looks really good. That exhaust still makes me cringe though.

Great! Definitely will not get the TechArt exhaust, waiting for IPE Titanium (with PSE setup) that will come out in Jan

I wonder if techart can provide some testing data. Also, does this add-on void warranty.
"This aerodynamic advantage grown at increasing speeds. At top speed, the TECHART Rear Spoiler II generates 76 kilograms more downforce at the rear axle on the series 991 Carrera S."

Well if it's not GB then it is a PTS so who knows.

Sometimes I love GB and if this is GB I love it. Other times, in other lighting conditions, not so much.

We did this wing on our turbo. We did it with the carbon fiber wing blade. I have installed a lot of TechArt products over the years. One thing I can tell you about this product is that the carbon wing blade is very very lightweight. Most of the TechArt carbon os not so lightweight but this piece was a real carbon piece and was extremel lightweight.

It took a couple of attempts at installing it to get it correct. The instructions leave a lot to be desired. I had to do a little trimming but when it was all said and done it fit really well.

If you like the look, are willing to spend the money for one of the top brands and have a decent shop to install it then I say go for it.

It really does change the look of the car a lot without being overbearing. Quality parts and after they are installed they will look like factory parts from Porsche.

It is indeed subjective, and we are also biased but the Techart Wing looks awesome:

the part form techart is about $2800. i got a knockoff one off of ebay for $1500.
i would NOT recommend this.
finish and fitment was not the best.
it needed some work and the fitment was a pain.

Next time I would get techart.

i had it painted for $450 and i installed it myself.

here are side rear shots

Don't do it without a front chin spoiler. The amount of downforce on the rear gets very noticeable as speed increases.
