997TT Cab w/ Misha Wing and HRE Wheels (Wheels Boutique)

Just wanted to give a big props to two forum vendors Misha Wings and Wheels Boutique that I've had the pleasure to deal with. Both are truly class act operations that not only provide a great product but more importantly great service which is getting rare these days. Thanks a bunch to both of you!

Wheels are 20" 590R's with chrome lips / satin black centers and inner barrels with matching Porsche center caps.

Misha Wing is the GTM Ad-On wing for 997TT.

Not feeling it, dare I say its a bit 'wicked' like? Needs a drop badly, might all come together then.

IMO the wing is way to large for the vehicle, at least in the pics. Still, different strokes I guess.

Not feeling the wing at all, generally like misha's stuff, but not on a TT, sorry.
Here's my critique, shields up;
The problem is the AD characteristics are all wrong, it may look remotely like a gt2 wing, but it is completely different and untested. The ht is wrong, as is the angle of attack, the lateral drag is significant as well, plus it's not matched with a proper front splitter. It can't be terribly stable at speed. If you notice, the OEM aerokit wing has a completely different ht/ angle of attack(in fact it's level) and has virtually no lateral drag, and it's been thoroughly AD tested. The similar is true for the gt2 wing. If the car is stable at speed, it's in spite of the wing, not because of it, imo.
His other wings didn't seem as 'off' as this one, not sure what the deal is,(installer?). Not trying to slam anybody, just pointing out some aerodynamic features that I noted, off my soapbox. This should be taken as constructive criticism.

The wing is an abomination. AND, it can't be good for the cars balance at speed.

Usually don't like the shape of the 911 convertibles... but this one does not look bad at all!
