It's the ‘97-04.5 Boxster new OEM Aero Kit Pelican part described as Boxster Wing & Hardware # 986 512 992 00.

It was on the car when purchased but appears to be high quality and good fit that matches well with the side skirts. Hope this helps. I have not disabled the spoiler.

Is that the aero kit I or the aero kit II spoiler? I have what looks like the same spoiler installed from the factory, what version they call it, I don't know.

That's the aero kit 1 wing. The aero 2 wing looks kinda like the 996 GT3 wing.

It's the aerokit 2 wing. The lip beneath it is one of the wings that mounts in place of the retractable spoiler. Like others, I had problems with the retractable wing's mounting points cracking. I had a body shop mold that wing into a fiberglass trunk lid, and I got rid of all of the retractable mechanism. Between the glass trunk lid and the removal of the retractable stuff, I had a net loss of about 25 pounds...and I've got more downforce at the rear from the new setup. And I love the way it looks.
