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.

If I had to choose between the two, I'd now change my answer to B.

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.

I like "A"
. I have seen it on several cars and have thought about putting it on my car. The main reason I like it is because when the wing is down, it blends in with the lines of the car
If you like it, buy it!!!!!
I have Item A on my car. I like it but all you really need is to please yourself. I left mine black on my Zenith Blue car. I like the contrast. Sometime in the future I may go the route of an aero kit and then the spoiler will go. But for now it is fine with me.
Where did you find these? I was planning on eventually doing the 997 GT3 style on mine, but for under $300, that subtle (A) one might hold me over for awhile.
A: $267 + ship direct from GT3TEK:

I was ever in the same situation trying to decide which spoiler to go for. 2 same choices.
For choice A, the problem to me was I have never seen it in person or live pictures posted anywhere (none that I can find). It is tough to decide if it will be nice.
Choice B, I have seen it on a car. Looks much better live than on pictures. But the middle of the spoiler will sag with time (poorly made replicas?). Original Techarts are likely to be better, but they are costly for a small spoiler IMHO.
At the end, I chose none of them, increased my budget went for the Misha GTM Wing instead and never regretted.
I suppose you want to keep the active spoiler. If I were to choose between, it will be the look of B.
Thanks steveu812!
After looking at more pictures of both, I think I'd rather save up for something I really want.
If I had to choose between the two, I'd now change my answer to B. it looks better at more angles...
My choice would be B. Not too flashy (i.e. taco wing)
I agree with KK, choice A looks like a 944; In other words, 1980's retro plastic. If you are going for that look, I think A works.
Of course, the best choice is probably stock.
I'd vote for A. But I actually prefer 3kgto's suggestion of upping your budget and getting a wing from Misha
Sell off the stock spoiler assembly to cover the difference
Looks like crap to me. Why rice up a 911?
If you really want a cool spoiler, I suggest something similar to this one (similar body panels will look great on your car too).
.

save up and go taco! I know im a little biased but I personally think it's a great looking wing from all angles and its a porsche part so i'd take that as a plus.
Nice example here, one might quibble an S2 is not a 944, as a 944 S2 owner, I wouldn't.
As far as 996 spoiler, if it's not factory or option, hard to like. Out of all of them I'm a Taco type.
