Ducktailed Panamera

Hey guys,


I was at the dealer yesterday and a white Panamera with an aftermarket Vorsteiner ducktail spoiler pulled up. My impressions = I thought it looked really good. Blended in very well with the car but gave it a more aggressive aesthetic from the rear straight on (without being overdone) and thought it allowed for a better profile (where a lot of people complain about the roundness of the panamera's rear end) as well.


I was thinking of de-badging her anyways but was hesitant b/c potential of the roundness of the rear to be magnified and just look too plain without the "PORSCHE" letters... I think this would break up that area and would look a lot better de-badged.


Has anyone else seen this in person? thoughts?? My impression right now after seeing this yesterday is this mod has the potential of being a staple modification for the panamera turbo (along side exhaust / intake / tune)...

I like it could always put porsch on it. After this build I'm sure it's a matter of time that I'll want to put a body kit on it

Is the original retractable wing, still functional or do you have to shut it down?

What are your thoughts Tony? I assume you like the results?

I love the ducktail.

I've seen it on a hand full of rides down here and always thought it looked good.

I have one along with the sport design kit. I did not put the Porsche logo on it. I think it helps take away from the big butt the car has.

I kind of like the one that when your OEM opens up - it seamlessly blends in for one big wing.
