Yo my 996 brethren,
What y'all think about this product? Seems like one of the better ducktail products I've seen and they'll paint to match.

The only 996 appropriate wing!

I love the taco wing, but that ducktail ain't bad either.

I kinda like that. I've never been fond of the big stand-off wings. I know many like them but, I'm old and like to see out my rear window!

just yesterday I was in a funk, bemoaning the lack of choices for a decent ducktail
for our plebeian 996's
no reviews yet, seems reasonable
you going to take the plunge b3 ?, bet it adds 35 hp

Naw, not right now... there are other things I wanna do first. But if I was going to purchase an aftermarket spoiler, this one would be at the top of the list. Unfortunately, the OEM Carrera spoiler for the 996 is $6,500 unpainted and the OEM GT3 type setup are pushing $4,000.

And so, for around $1,500, you can get a painted ducktail with an classic grille layout. Installs in place of the factory grille. Nice!

I found you a much better deal. All aluminium spoiler. Much lighter and provides large increase in down force.

Not the pure awesomeness of the classic taco wing, but the Carrera II wing.
