New Wing

Kinda bias towards your original wing, but if the second wing is a huge upgrade I might have to look into it. It's a vicious cycle of trying to always/upgrade the rides..

Just picked up the pork4S.

The GTM wing is smaller and sharper edged than the GT2M wing which is a replica of the OEM GT2 blade set on a GT3 platform. My shop said the piece was easy to paint over and install. Good work, Misha.

I like the GTM better, but for many, it'll be splittin' hairs. Here you guys go for reference.

Thumbs up

Very nice!

The angle on the side blade flows with the tail light much better.

Subtle.....but nice.

Outside of the looks, is the new wing going to offer anything that the stock one did not? What are the advantages / disadvantages to changing the aerodynamics by changing the wing? Do they offer the same downforce, or is that adjustable?

Thanks for the information.

Gotta agree with you. I like the GTM. That sharper edge just flows a little better with the lines of the 996.

You took your pics at the Chevron near Park Place??? The waterfront is just a block away!!!

I like the GTM better too Ben, looks great. The GTM looks like it was put on a diet and toned compared to the GT2M.

If I purchase one, do I just tell Misha I want the GTM wing? Is there any decklid options?

Thanks, Roc

hey roc a fella,

i agree with you. i think misha only offers one deck so that the blade fits whichever one the customer decides to use. if you already have his wing, all you need is the blade piece.

Hey Ben,

Really lovin the Misha wings! The GTM looks a lot better, I think aswell. I wsa wondering if Misha can do the similar set as yours, but with a GT3 RS carbon blade? I think that would look really hot on the C4S'! I 'm actually really surprised no one has done this yet...
