Does anyone know where I can get one? What would I have to change? I currently have a taco style wing. Would I have to get a 996 GT3 decklid or a MKII decklid and then get a RS wing blade?

You would need to change to the MKII to allow the blade to fit.....

Haven't looked at cost in a while but think that you'll spend a good $1,500 for the lid + wing.

Is that for a OEM deck lid? Do you know where I can get one?

I'm not sure yet. I'm still trying to reseach the RS wing. I really depends on how much it's going to cost me.

There's a very interesting thread on rennlist about RS wings. You should check it out. It discusses prices/quality of OEM wings and replicas. It's in the 996 GT2/GT3 forum.

IMO taco style looks much better, a cleaner look for the 996. some of those Misha wings look great as well.

GL with it though, hope it works out to your liking

You will need a factory deck lid, not sure of cost for just lid and not wing but both for MK11 are about 5k plus. To get a factor rs wing or a Manthey you will spend another 3-4k for the real deal. Yes check out rennlist thread under the gt3 sub forum for more info. I have been going through this change on my gt3

lil stan, call MA SHAW and get the gt3 mkII wing with the RS blade or talk 2 him about your options, i talk 2 him on the phone yesterday and he was a very easy person to deal with, he might just sill you the deck lid base and the wing without the stock mkII top to save $$.

i still say the taco is best on our cars tho
