I posted on your thread also but I think what you have is too tall/big . Cut it in half in height and post new pics. If your price is reasonable you will have more work than you can handle. What mounting method are you thinking of using ?

The mounting is/will be as per the factory piece which is removed and this installed in its place.

Here are a few pictures of my duck tail which will go into production hopefully by mid next week (July 13-14).

This is a part of the package I'm making for my Boxster. Only the second piece so far, another four to go.

Are the radiuses equal side to side? Probably just camera tricks...
View from behind the car and side profile,( from a distance), photos please.

Looking good. Black gelcoat a match for the 986 black paint?

Not sure if the black gel coat would be a match, if it's not perfect then probably the only color the black wouldn't work with.
Yes the radius is the same on both sides.

Her's a couple of the views you asked for. If you want one from further away I can do that when it stops raining.

Why not mount something below the existing spoiler? I feel like it would look just as good if not better, plus there's more space to work with. Sorry if this was discussed already, didn't read through all 7 pages....

Hard to believe it's been 3 years since this post ! I get compliments everywhere I go about the Joe Toth ducktail . Mine is as rock solid as the day I installed it 3 years ago . So happy to have this on my car

To each their own, but it looks a bit out of place to me.

Glad you like it, though! That's all that matters.
