Exclamation GT-style Wing for the 991??

Hi all,

While window web-shopping =P I stumbled upon this part..

A GT style wing for the 991 which I thought is kinda unique??

Here it is:








For me, I think it .would fit perfectly with an aggressive kit on a regular 991 or the GT3 maybe?
I am not thinking of buying it =P Just wanted to share and see what you guys think?

Maybe for a trip to the moon? : )

A little to aggressive for the street in my opinion.

I am curious how the scoop interacts with the engine cooling fans, which at that point run counter to the air rushing in from the scoop.

Do they get disabled? At speed, not an issue, but for slow or parked cool down venting seems less than ideal?

EDIT -- I do note that there seems to be a channel for rear outlet in bumper GT3-style.

Too aggressive for street in my opinion.... Looks nice in CF.

I wonder, though, what speeds you have to hit for any "useful" down-force to come into effect? Seems to me the height of the wing would require something significant!

true, a track use seems more suitable *thumbs up*

You know that never came into mind what happens to the fans?
Maybe the reverse their blow? as in work hand-in-hand with the scoop?
coz if you get the channels to mimic the GT3, what would push air out?

Seems we all share the thought that it is too aggressive for street use =D
hmmm...and they don't seem to be adjustable too...how much speed do we need for it to become useful? many Qs lol

Has anyone seen an AM tail for the 991 that looks like the one that comes on the TTS or something similar?

Looks like an RS type wing instead of a 'vanilla' GT3 wing. I would prefer the wing on the new gt3 as opposed to the metal support pillars. This one may be a bit too aggressive for the street
