997 Wing Spacers

Does anyone have a source for wing spacers? I'd like to raise my wing an inch or 2 but keep the stock hydraulics.

Thanks in advance.

Wing height

If I remember correct, the dealer can calibrate the coupe wing height to the Cabrio's higher setting--about 20mm I think. I'll try and get more info...

Subscribed! That would be awesome because I was thinking I would need to buy the cab hydraulics.

Sorry guys. For USA it's just a height limit and timing calibration on either the coupe or cabrio modules, and the cabrio has different hydraulic pistons with more travel. If anyone has other info on Euro spec height adjustment please chime in..

Not sure if you're dead set on keeping the hydraulic mechanism intact and having your wing rise and depress, but EB Werks makes a permanent wing adjustable spacer which raises the wing. You save weight from removing the hydraulics, but you lose the up/down functionality of the wing. It doesn't cost much either. I think for now this is one of the only options.

I definitely want to keep the hydraulic mechanism. Thanks for the link.
