Here is an add-on to the stock front bumper that looks like it would develop some down force up front.

Porsche 986 Boxster 996 GTX Turbo Spoiler Lip New | eBay


I've been thinking of a rear spoiler for racing and I wonder if there is measurable down force from what looks like mostly cosmetic spoilers.

It should really be adjustible for tuning purposes.

That Cayman style spoiler that raises looks virtually useless since its so small/narrow.

I also wonder what sort of upgraded trunk pistons are required to deal with the extra weight of some of the spoilers.


Here's my tail.

Cayman spoiler adds no weight to the trunk lid.
