Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

Not my cup of tea, and as mentioned see it installed elsewhere before you screw it to your wing/engine lid and regret it later.
Leading evidence: 'Install elsewhere' (no explicit attributable resolution; this is a reported action or suggestion). Across 1 matching discussions, The most frequently discussed action is 'Install elsewhere' (1 discussions). For that action, 0 discussions report a resolution and 0 report an unsuccessful attempt. No action has an explicit, attributable resolution report under the current rules. These are forum reports and suggestions, not a confirmed diagnosis.
Source reports, not a diagnosis or a success probability. Counts refer to discussions and can overlap.

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

whats everyones view on this.....I was considering for my car but wonder if it will look a little chavvy on my polar silver motor.

Those pictures are of a 997, do they have any of it fitted to a 996? Also how is it fitted, screws, tape, glue? You may have to drill into your retractable spoiler... Carbon on silver works but just make sure it doesn't look 'stuck on' as it's a failry small addition...
Reminiscent of the "hoop" spoiler/high level brake light combo of the 993 (except that was mounted below the window line)
Not my cup of tea, and as mentioned see it installed elsewhere before you screw it to your wing/engine lid and regret it later. Can't just polyfiller the holes after.
The advert says it all
"NEW 99-04 PORSCHE 996
TART STYLE
CARBON FIBER BOOT SPOILER"
not a good look IMO and I wonder is it affects the aerodynamics of the car
I agree with you guys.....after looking at it again this morning in the sober light of day (and not after a bottle of vino)
. I think it would look naff.
I actually quite like it. On that 997 it looks great. I'd just wonder if it helps with the aerodynamics and keep the back end glued to the road as per the original idea.

That is the concept and of course it does. However recognising my own limited driving ability, I suspect that I probable will not see that added aerodynamic capability on British roads.
Of course lowering the car adds even more by excluding air from under the car, which gives an added aerofoil effect on the top surfaces of the vehicle and pushing it down on the road. Mind you if you go for this option too, make sure your tooth fillings are secure :lol:

There is a version available with a heater element built in.
It is available for TVR's. Not sure if it's out for a Porsche yet though.
I think it's designed to warm the hands on a long cold push after a breakdown. :floor:
