Can you tell me where you got your P lettering for the duck tail? I have been trying to decide what to do with mine ( ducktail is in paint shop now) for a few weeks. Maybe font size and color too? Any information would be appreciated.

just an update on my car, although I had this posted elsewhere a few months ago. I tried out the matte black stone guards which really grew on me and that then lead me to try out a matte black racing stripe. I really like the look and its a nice change after 7 years of ownership. Gonna keep it like this for a bit.

With the Getty tail do you end up with two brake lights? It looks like the stock light would be blocked by the tail.

Here is my 997.2 Cab S with the Mischa Ducktail.

It looks spectacular. It should have come from factory this way. The quality and fit was very good. A special thank you to Alex from Mischa for making my purchase nice and easy; he personally delivered it to me in person. Paint, finish, and install done by my local autobody shop.

No, after you change the computer to a "fixed wing" via a Durametric, only the third brake light in the duck will light up.

But a non-functioning factory light remains? Darn...that would bug me I think. Looks like the Misha tail sits low enough that the factory light remains functioning and visible hence no light in wing itself. Thanks for the reply.

Beautiful, absolutely beautiful! Are the lower side skirts factory or aftermarket, very cool looking.

easy enough to change the non-functioning light to the blank panel from a turbo:
