Has anyone who had the Cup Areokit (for 01 and earlier 996's) intalled left the "Gurney lip" off the spoiler? Is the lip truly functional? The body shop messed mine up and the dealer suggested I leave it off. Comments?

Coverage and how to read this overview
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.

it generates a considerable amount of downforce, but unless you hit triple digit speeds you may not notice the difference much. i would get it put back on because the Aerokit I had a notorious problem of high speed stability and lift as it is...
On the factory aerokit this part was painted to match the rest of the car. However, on the GT3, this part was left flat black (as was the front spoiler lip). So you have some choices when replacing it on if you want to get it painted or not. Definitely get it replaced if you are planning any track work with this car. Karl
If the bodyshop messed up the part, then they should pay to get it corrected. I imagine you would want it as that is how the factory designed it.
