GT2 add on rear wing - UP POSITION

I am looking at getting a GT2 front bumper and add-on rear wing. While i look of the rear wing while its down, I am not sure what it will look like up. Can anyone post pics of this? Does it look too high?

THanks!

I have one now - I ordered it from Misha - I'll be installing it in about 3 weeks, if you can wait that long - and the best thing is - I'M IN STRATHROY!

Cool, what colour is your car? i have not seen 996 TT around here. Let me know how the install goes, there's a guy in London that's worked on my Lexus before that i was going to take mine to. Also, was looking at either Misha or MA Shaw for the bits.

Are you having the front ducts trimmed or are you purchasing GT2 ducts?

Pic of my car attached in case you've seen me around, its an 05 TTS

Cheers....

I only have the rear wing for now. I have a seal grey '01 that I just bought at the end of last year, too late to enjoy it!
I've got the wing now, and I'll be getting it painted locally. You are more than welcome to "try it on" in the meantime! PM me if you would like.

Jag, my $0.02, who cares what the wing looks like "up", unless you're fiddling with the switch, when you're on the outside of the car (parked), it'll be down

But seriously, I prefer the look down too, but there are lots of pics on Misha's site with the wing both up and down, and it looks pretty good either way.

I've got the wing too, getting painted next week. Can't wait. I'm thinking hard on the GT2 front as well, man that looks really hot. Geez, it looks like our cars are going to continue being twins for the foreseeable future

Hope all's well out in TO.

Cheers

All GT2 lookalike wings look too high when in the up position.

Thanks Hung. Btw, the pic of the yellow TT through the window makes the car look really high off the ground, is that the real?

i really like the look of the gt2 wing, i am just not sure about adding it on to a TT decklid, as meticulous as i am i think i would have to buy the whole damn gt2 decklid. just my opinion.
