Best Cup or RS wing for the $$$

So I want to pick up a cup style wing or an RS wing, but just can't see my way to paying $3500 for a Porsche OEM wing.

So over to the experts. What's the best wing out there for the $$$? It has to be quality, look OEM, and CF. Suggestions?

Just realized you had an 04 GT3... was going to tell you that the OE RS wing is over $10,200

GMG Racing has a RS wing for the 996. I believe it is made by either Mashaw or AP Designs...

Thank-you for all the suggestions. I'll check them all out.

I have the opportunity to buy a new OEM one in the box for $3k - is it worth picking up? I'm guessing that it would hold its value for a while.

OEM RS Wing for USD 3k, sounds dirt cheap.

It turns out that it's a couple years old, but he kept the original boxes - so it looks like new. Thanks for the input. I think I'm going OEM.

U said looking for "quality, look OEM, and CF" - for 3 of 3 OEM is the way to go. For 2 of 3, other vendors would fine (e.g. sacrificing quality). I put a fiberglass GT2-style wing on my Turbo and loved it -- because I was willing to sacrifice quality for that particular mod. For $3K OEM, I think you can't go wrong assuming the wing is in excellent shape.

I've decided to try to buy an OEM RS wing used. If anyone has a lead, please let me know. Thanks again!
