Ductail or a low profile blade spoiler? (997.1)
I have a black on black 2008 c4s cab. Any community thoughts about what kind of rear wing spoiler (ductail vs low profile blade wing) would look best? I will be also ordering a misha gtm2 front spoiler. Also, i can not decide on the side skirts or not. All thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

IMO... for non-turbo/GT 911's, no wing looks best.

Duck tails only belong on one Porsche, and even then i don't care for how it looks.

With coupes, I like wings. With Cabs, I think they look a little funny. I'd say duck or none - maybe the flying ducktail where you get kind of the best of both worlds - subtle when parked and functional when the factory spoiler lifts.

I love the ducktail look but not on a cab. My two cents.

No duck tail and no wing. Love the classic lines, but to each their own, eh!?!

Here is my GT3 TEK lip. I liked the "Singer-esque" look that doesn't ruin the profile.
