Each tail looks good on the car they're on. I'd stick with what was available at the time.

Peroid correct is hard to beat.

We have some purest on board, watch your tail.

maybe you want to try the 993 Euro RS spoiler looks really good in 84-94 cars

Whale tail looks great on a widebody, only other one I would concider might be an RSR tail.

I think that the 993 tail will have conflicting curves. I might look OK from some angles, but from the rear I think it will look like something is wrong.

Period correct is the better choice. That first one would look like a bloated infection, IMHO...of course!
