It's not a GT3 wing, but an aerokit 2. The hole cutouts are wrong. But that being said, you wouldn't want a GT3 wing on a Carrera, you'd want an aerokit2 so it would lineup with your fan and air intake. If it's real, that's a very good price. It went for less than a replica and this part is usually 2k+ in OEM.

Exactly. A lot of people forget (i.e. don't know about) that and order a genuine GT3 deck lid just to realize that it doesn't fit on a Carrera (...and to put it then up on Ebay, where someone else buys it to realize - again - that it doesn't fit on Carreras)...

Looks real, ...but it also looks as if the seller opened a fresh (0 feedback) account on Ebay to avoid giving it away too cheap. I bet he bought it himself.
