Hi Guys!

I got the rear wing itch and I love the 997.2 GT3 wing.

I found this one that attaches to the removed spoiler space without having to replace the rear deck...



Any experience with these? fit and finish?

Joel I just responded to another post about these guys. Here is what I wrote:
Be CAREFUL! There was a post a while back where the guy bought a wing from NR Auto. The wing came apart at high speeds (cracked) from the stress. The company was reluctant to work with him. I think they eventually did, but I am not sure if he was satisfied. They are being resold by Vivid Racing, so maybe they will stand behind the products.

Fiberglass comes in various qualities. Most of these parts are inferior, hence the cheap price (compared to Techart). What you save up front you will pay for in the prep of the product by a paint and body shop and it still won't be as good as if it were better quality........I learned the hard way. Although I did not buy anything from NR Auto I did form another vendor where the quality was so bad I had to send it back. The wing I got had hump in the middle, not one edge was straight, every part was wavy, and the wing fit like garbage.

There are a few reputable places that do sell some quality pieces. I have heard great things about Misha and a few other. DO a search on here and you will find some of the better quality one's.

I would only buy genuine techart or the porsche aerokit as they are both engineered to actually work or maybe I bought into that BS. But I will probably never add a spoiler to my GTS. I think going with what came from the factory works best as far as function. But I do sometimes think about it.
