Installed GT3 style wing on my 991.1 C2S

Originally was going to install the OEM Aerokit spoiler however the aerokit spoiler I ordered was heavily delayed so I ended up canceling the order. I ended up ordering a carbon fiber GT3 style wing from Darwin Pro on eBay just to see If I liked it since it was relatively inexpensive. I could always reverse back to stock if I hated it or the fit was messed up. The fit ended up being spot on and it turned out to look pretty awesome actually. Installation was very straightforward, only annoying part is I got a warning over 75mph that there is a spoiler failure, but getting that reprogrammed to not show up next week. Overall i'm pretty happy with how it turned out!

Gotta admit it looks great. How is the vision out of the rear window? Can you see anything?

Looking good rohan92...a little off topic but how are the side skirts fitting the car, did you have to use tape?

They fit 99% flush, there is a slight slight gap near the rear curve but not enough to bother me to take them off. They are the 4S side skirts, my body shop guy was able to modify them to fit into the stock location. Not sure what magic he pulled off but I think he used a heat gun to to mold it enough to fit.

Looking nice OP, I suggest getting a Vorsteiner Rear Carbon valance to add to the look of the rear to compliment your carbon wing and look aggressive.
