Default Dakar and sport classic wing observations

Swung by the local dealer for a bit and checked out the wings. Sport Classic has a bit of a whale tail. But if I had a 992, I think I'd try to retrofit the Dakar wing on somehow as it looks to better direct airflow to the intercoolers. Though I would make some type of grill to keep some debris from getting all the way to the intercoolers.

The Dakar air inlet area looks just like the AeroKit wing inlet area. The Dakar wing could be retrofit, if one could actually get ahold of it without a VIN (…which would prove very, very difficult).

My understanding is that Dakar has the Turbo’s cooling system so it would be more than just installing the wing.

Slightly off topic.

We live in a forest and are surrounded by trees.... The lack of a grill over the intercoolers is a big omission in my view; I have a Dakar and Autumn (Fall) last year I was constantly having to retrieve leaves and other debris before it clogged and potentially compromised the intercoolers.

Anyone know of any grills that may work?
