For everyday street driving the high fixed GT wing is just showing off and rather ridiculous [unless yer a boy racer].

And what about the aero balance at speed?

But doesn't pretty much EVERYTHING look good in Guards Red?

^^^ I think RED does add at least +10hp.

I was thinking about getting a Misha GT-2 add-on wing, but saw a Strosek wing by Precision at the Dyno Day and looked really cool. They're $700. Haven't priced the Full Misha GT-2 replica with decklid, but with all the judging going on here, it looks like I'd have to get that if I want to level up my downforce while avoiding critique.

if we meet up for that canyon drive you'll be able to see mine for as long as you can stand it, since there's no room to pass and because you're not crazier than i am.

I've been digging the Strosek for a while. Read a lot of good things about the quality from Precision...if I ever decide Id probably give the Precision one a shot.

Here is my car with the TechArt Type 1 spoiler in carbon. I just put it on the other day. I plan to eventually go with the full replacement GT2 fixed wing. For now as a cheaper and easier solution I like the TA spoiler.

+1 for the Techart Type 1. It was on my car when I bought it and I think it is a nice balance of a little more bling without being too over the top. It has a similar shape to the way the 997TT wing overhangs the outside edge of the lower stationary decklid spoiler. Very sexy in carbon on a white car...

the TechArt and the strosek are a close call. I've never seen anything wrong with a TechArt piece, and i'm fairly certain the strosek takes its design cue from it as well. it's just a tad more aggressive than the TechArt 1. a happy medium and precision makes good stuff.

the comparison is easy to see.

btw test shot when the new leds were made... i did NOT put CLEAR led tails on my car! lol sheesh...

The previous post was about 7 years ago. A lot of these vehicles have changed hands since then.

Very True, but when the hunger is real, you'll go to unseen lengths to see if it possible. Hoping for that little inkling of hope

I have not seen a Turbo Aero wing for sale here anytime recently. Also, I don't believe you quoted an individual member to inquire, FYI.
