When I installed my GT2 wing it was only truly beneficial above 80mph which happens to be perfect for Turn 1 at both of my favorite tracks and a few other sections.

Without a counter aero front lip/splitter, the car lifts tremendously - I ran over my turbo lip mid-day and had to run 4 sessions with no front aero which taught me quite a bit.

I'd like to get one and replace the taco tail, but that is a hefty expense!

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

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 came across this and cannot seem to not want to get my hands on one. Necessary? Absolutely not. Awesome? Definitely.
There are only four providers that I can identify,
CariD
,
Getty (more of a cup wing)
,
Wicked Motors
, and
DirectCarToys
.
$3-4k seems absolutely insane to me but I guess thats the going rate.
Any chance there are others on here that have this wing installed?
Here's what I'm talking about (not my car but hot damn)
I'm not sure who you are, but Vandersmith is a very beneficial member on this forum and also tracks his car frequently and provides wealth of knowledge. You can't simply state without knowing the angle of attack of the wing or other modifications to the car, that it going to cause terminal understeer. All wings can be set up differently and can be combined with other aero pieces and or modifications to make the car work... also, some people just strictly appreciate the look/styling.
On the street this is complete overkill and serves no purpose which can be said for a lot of what we share & debate on rennlist.
On the track I think this could perform but probably not much more than my current GT2 wing so it is somewhat of a cosmetic purchase.

I'm at the track pretty often and thats really been the goal for my car. Building a track performer that can keep up with newer models in the right hands and be driven home at the end of the day. I did so many track days last year they gave me a friggin job. Volunteering of course but I'm happy to support the PCA community in exchange for a free lunch and more seat time.
This wing would be balanced out with one of Joe Toth's 2-piece front splitters (already in my garage) which are fantastic by the way:
This is my solid post GT2RS (style) wing. Works really well - in fact, I'm picking up my POC 2016 class championship award this evening at the Porsche Experience Center in LA.
" you are the slowest and least sensitive individual to ever sit behind a steering wheel."
Sheesh that's harsh. I get it you're not a fan of the big wing but that's no excuse to go insulting the guy like that.
Damn. After some research I think I found a critical flaw in this plan.
The 3rd brake light panel on the C4S appears to be welded to the engine bay panels. I don't see a clear way to remove it without extensive work. Its also raised somewhat whereas on the Turbos its one smooth piece as the Turbo 3rd brake light is on the wing/tail itself. Something you wouldn't notice unless you were looking for it.
Rats. Would look really strange having two 3rd brake lights, one on the panel and one on the wing.
No go.
A PCA acquaintance here in Orlando spent $6000, all in, for a Techart wing on an Orange 991.2 It does look great, better than expected after seeding only pictures.
It's hard to think of a wing on a Porsche that I didn't love.
