Very nice look. I'd do that in a second. Tombstone spoiler really could use a facelift.

GORGEOUS! This is the best-looking spoiler I've ever seen for a 986. Nice work!

Oh wow, well much appreciated sir!



When your friends refer to "the thing behind your car" when they follow you, you know they mean the spoiler lollll.
Now "Tombstone" got to be the fumiest I've heard so far

Any update on the duck tail spoiler? Was really hoping to see this item become available. :dance:

It's been on ebay for a couple of months now...since November I think.

Any update on this one? I'm a buyer

Hope all is well in the UK any update on the spoiler ?

derfo you out there ? Any update ?

Hi Derfo.
How come we haven't see this spoiler in the UK Boxster forum ? I'm sure there would be a market for that here, also sure you would of got a lot of interest as others on the forum (BoXa.net) like the cayman style spoiler, or even my Sports Edition spoiler.

Far better than the air brake type.
Guvs.

Derfo it's been a couple of months any progress to report ?

Any progress?

Hello everyone,
I have been quite ill for a few months after coming of meds that I have been on for years, the withdrawel has been very severe and prolonged.
I have had everything ready to make the mould for a while but just not been up to doing it. However I am a lot better now and intend to get on with it in the few weeks. I will post again when I start it.

Hope you get feeling better soon!

Your health comes before the spoiler, get well soon and stay in touch.

Ouch sorry to hear about your previous condition, good to hear you are up and running strong again!!! I'll keep an eye open for your near release.. I still want to take that huge wing off the back on my Boxster - its old now lolll

Luck with everything there mate

Here are some photos of my 2000 with spoilerhttp://986forum.com/forums/uploads02/1466229884.jpg

Froggo you can't just post and run :D . What are the specifics on your spoiler ? Homemade or purchased over the counter ? Not sure I like the visible screw heads but that could be overcome. Other than that I like it. Details man details !!! :cheers:

Yes , I made it in the home workshop . It's fiberglass over a MDF wood base . The fixings are polished SS screws into captive nuts in the top bar of the original spoiler which still goes up and down . I don't think it has any aerodynamic qualities at the speeds I travel at but it makes the tail a bit more interesting .

Hi guys, I came across this thread when posting my the thread of the aero kit I'm in the process of doing for my car. One of the pieces happens to be a duck tail and I would like to get some feedback as to what I am working on. It seems I really like McDonald's as I tend to "supersize " everything. The pictures are of my pattern for the mold. Please ignore the finish as there is still work to be done there but it's the size and shape I would like to get the input. I wasn't going to go crazy and put a mold ready finish on this thing if I was going to go back and cut and reshape.

Thank you in advance for the input,
Joehttp://986forum.com/forums/uploads02...1467159811.jpg

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.

Just started on the mold.

Derfo I hope that means you are back to good health . Thanks for chiming back in .

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.

Looks damn good, please post a picture from a distance of the whole car rear and side views.

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....

Does it still raise and lower like the factory one? Looks good will you be selling just the ducktail? If so Price?

Here are the pictures you asked for.....

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 :cheers:

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

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