I spent some time with Harvey Photography last weekend to create an amazing short video of my 997 Turbo. Enjoy 😀

 

Looks great! Yours and mine look very similar. Haven't seen too many turbos with these Vorsteiner wing setup.

 

Your car is perfect!!!

Please share what mods you have done!

BTW what size wheel spacers do you have?

 

Thanks!

8mm front and 15mm rear.

 

nice clip

 

That looks really great, I have the same wheels on H&R springs, do you experience any rubbing?

 

Is that the JL-Motoring wing or an actual Vorsteiner wing? I like the dimensions and how it doesn't stick out from a front view.

Very cool video, very professional.

Thanks Ed. It's an actual Vorsteiner wing.

 

Ahhh... OK well I had asked JL if I could cut the wing and remount the winglets, they replied my body shop should be able to do that. I just think the JL wing is way too wide. Yours is almost the exact width of the GT3 wing.

I didn't realize the JL wing was wider than the Vorsteiner wing. I thought they were exactly the same. I have the JL decklid and wing and looks proportionately correct

 

Well it may be the angle of this pic:



Compared to this screen grab from the video:



And what caught my attention to begin with, this GT3 wing:



I like the wing to not show too much from the front (as in the video) and only extend to the mid point of the rear views max.

If the first picture is misleading, great, then I don't have to deal with modifying it. If you have anything to answer that question I would be very interested in knowing that answer. I never got measurements from anyone, which would be the correct way of answering my question.

It maybe the angle I took that first picture. Try these.

 

Tough to get the right perspective. Basically if you look at the GT3 picture, what I am shooting for is the winglets to end 1/2 through the side views. Your shots are what got me interested to begin with, and in those shots the proportions look great.

When you look at yours from the same perspective as that GT3 shot, do you see the same look?

Regardless, the JL wing is (in my opinion) the best looking 997 option without being too much. If it is a little wider I am sure I can figure out how to trim it down.
