Mini Duck
So I have been looking at the picture of the Singer 911. I love that look of the mini duck tail..Does anybody make something like this for sale?
I have an 85 and would love to see how it would look on my car. I realize it has the 964 motorized engine grill but it would give me even more reason to update to that look

I'm subscribing to this, because I love the look, too. I'll be surprised if someone is making these, but who knows?

The mini Duck looks very nice. I could really see a market for it.

In the early 90's, Performance Products use to sell a piece to attach to the 964 "pop up" wing.

IMHO, the Singer is beautifully proportioned, but I wonder about any significant aero-effect as a result of the mini-duck.

It is a beautiful car and I like that they have chosen an alternative route with the smaller wing. Personally I'm not sure I like it that much though. To me the car the car would have been a home-run without any wing at all (alt a regular duck).

The Singer mini duck is actually a C2 pop-up spoiler with a mini duck attached to it that you can see when it's retracted.

I like the HID head lights, and wonder if they or the supplier will sell to the rest of us.
Also like the center exhaust. |
