If you are in Guernsey have a look at joining the Porsche owners club. The organiser Ian Banneville is a top bloke,who organises lots of interesting stuff to do with the car, and is a thoroughly nice chap with 100 octane petrol running through his veins.
His e mail is ian@banneville.fsnet.co.uk, i am sure he would be able to offer you some help with you spoiler query too.
Regards
Paul

Welcome to Porsche ownership. Just a word of
caution. I've read that the GT3 rear wing should
only be fitted with the front spoiler for aero
reasons, but the side sills don't matter.

Congratulations and enjoy the car, it is meant to be driven.

I have had my 3.2 Carrera for 14 years and would not be without it.
Just the most practical, exciting and fun car I have ever had. It started out as the everyday car, now it just appears for the more special journeys.
Cannot even imagine life without a 911.

hehe

they look daft if you don't have the whole kit. i suspect the aero effect won't matter in guernsey too much (but I have heard the same (it makes sense))!
