CaymanS rear spoiler - looking for options

Now that I've finished my perf mods (for the moment) I'm looking for a tasteful rear spoiler for my S - I'd prefer a fixed solution without the tacked on look.Search was no help so I'm looking to the members for any recommendations

Myself I plan (when finances allow) to go for the Porsche Techquipment fixed rear wing/front splitter combo. Wind tunnel tested by Porsche. Supposed to reduce lift (by how much I dont know.

A non fixed wing option I may consider is the Manthey Motors wing/splitter combo. Again tested in a wind tunnel and Manthey runs a very sucessful Porsche racing program.

SpeedArt also does a hydraulic rear wing replacement. Don't know about wind tunnel testing though.

I'm sorry, that's just a disgrace.

I really like the Farnbacher Loles CF spoiler.

Last year I shaped a rear spoiler out of a piece of left over surfboard core. It extended out to the edge of the lights on the existing curve and extended the chord of the airfoil by 1/3. Was going for a bit more effective but still "factory" looking piece. Direct replacement for existing wing. Still hoping someone will go into production.

The Farnbacher Loles CF wing does not exist. I have been on the list for about 1 year and they still can not produce it.

Morefun, do you have any more pictures of the wing? It looks very interesting especially if it retracts like the stock one.

Also, what it the approximate price of a piece like this?
