Duck Tail Pictures

For R Gruppe, I switched to the retro look. I think it looks better this way.

Opinions?

I love your car in this configuration. Definitely my favorite of all your tails!

Let me say once and for all. Your car is awesome. Unlike any other 911 yet still pure 911. Truly beautiful, in a brutal kind of way. Great mix of new and old.

The ducktail gives the car a nice charming look, but I quite liked the 964 spoiler.

Jack,

You could put ruffles and bows on your decklid and it would still look badass.

BB2 is a dead-serious car. Where BB1 might leave the crowd guessing, BB2 looks like it will rip the grill off anything that messes with it.

The ducktail adds a "civilized" element. Like putting a necktie on Darth Vader.

Jack,

LOVE the duck tail. thanks for opening it yesterday afternoon so I can have a look/see inside. didn't get a chance to speak to you as your ear was pretty busy and my midget was tugging on my arm to go see the red porsches.

Looks great Jack!

I saw the car in person yesterday, and all i can say is WOW!

Jorge (Taga Dude) and I were talking, and I think BB2 is probably one of the most famous Porsche 911's in the world.

Anyway, Jack, it looks great with the ducktail. Much more subtle. Got any hi-res pics?

Finally, I get to see her in proper attire. Looks fantastic!

Also glad to hear that you made it through the day unscathed. BB2 returns to the scene of the crime and has gotten over her fear of turn 9!

Next, we should try on the IROC tail. If it looked good on BB1, it look amazing on BB2. So how much water is coming through that rear window?

love the duck, but I don't like the "911" script on the tail. It says "water" to me...
