Which RS wing for my 7GT3 ?

hi,

I'm the proud owner of a 07 997 GT3 Club Sport, and if this car is perfect in many ways, I really don't like the rear wing, whereas the RS one is a beauty.

Buying a new one from Porsche here (France) being more than 9 000€, I have decided to go aftermarket and found FVD one.

Do anyone have a feedback one this one, or another vendor who makes those in EU ?

What I am worried about is :
- Is it adjustable ?
- Is it aerodynamically efficient (my car is 80% track, so I don't want to spoil the aero...) ?

Thanks in advance

Cid

I have one that I purchased from MA Shaw, a sponser here. The fit of the the engine lid was good, it still needed a little bit of work but I believe all of them will, and the quality of the carbon fiber blade was great.

I would also recommend checking out Vorsteiner for the wing.

Is it the one you have ?
Would you mind to give me the approx price, if it is adjustable and aero efficiency ?

No sir, I have the OEM RS wing on the GT3. I was lucky to get it back when it was reasonable.
The Vorsteiner wing is adjustable and is a very good product. Checkout the Vorsteiner website and call give them a call.
They also have a CF roof in the works.
The price of the wing will certainly be better than the OEM wing.

Good luck with the process,

Ranger

But I'm in France And if I recall correctly, you have had the carbon painted flat black ?

If you think it is doable to get the carbon back & are ready to ship to France, then I'm in :-)

oem RS decklid/tail here i got when the prices dipped to about $5k i think luckyluke has a great used one for sale. unless the RS blade was damaged and thats why it was painted... i believe the CF can be exposed again. just wet sand and shoot clear again.

Too bad Ty328 doesn't want to finish off the car with this tail. If he doesn't want the CF shown, then he can just leave it black, the same color as his car. Again, can't beat this great price.
