Dare I ask.... any Ducktail it?

Just curious if any Turbo owners have swapped their stock wing for a stationary duck tail style? Anyone have any pics or links to a turbo with such a mod?

I maybe picking up a turbo (07 997.1) and I rarely keep things stock... my build may include a completely different looking rear deck lid/wing set up...

For example here is my once stock narrow bodied 05 997.... completely bastardized and not for everyone but how I like it. The car get lots of questions and interest from other Porsche owners and for me meeting other people into cars, a conversation starter and something unique to my taste is part of the fun of owning cars. + its a driver (although a bit low in front) and care less about packing on miles and enjoying the car...I respect the purists...just not for me..

Thanks all....

Ranton is infamous around these parts
Not that it makes too much of a difference, but are you picking up a 997 or 997.2 Turbo? Personally, I think the Ducktail would great on your current car, no so much on a Turbo.

997.1

Good question, 997.1 (07)..... My car is a wrap, just going to keep it and drive it... but tend to agree my car could look good with a duck style rear... but I am looking for more car (speed, power etc) in the Turbo and just how I am with cars I will be modding it into something a bit different I am sure...

thanks...
