I love it! Like you say it’s subtle but that’s fine. The black badge below the spoiler looks perfect too. Congratulations on this update 👍
Awesome thanks ! Subtle for sure, anything bigger probably requires a drop in ride height and more aggression alround.
Looks cracking. Only you could get away with that scenic “duck” watching - creative!
Ha ha, glad you liked it. We will have to get one ordered for yours. :)
Looks great dude!! Every time I'm researching something, you've just made a vid about it. You're the best 981 youtuber! Thanks!
Thanks dude, I'lll take that 😂😂😂 but then that it is maybe because there aren't so many !
Looks great. You have something special that is the truth.
Thanks Richard 👍
Was looking for 718 Spyder vids and saw this. Glad I came. Concur with the general consensus that this was a well conceived and substantive positive change.
Welcome along! Thanks a lot for taking the time to say so.. appreciate it. 👍
Very cool indeed Daz.. great job and instructions as ever. Definitely the right choice to move the badge too
Thanks Allyn 😊
Just bought my first Porsche and it’s 981 Boxster ! I’ve watched all your video and it gave me so many ideas !! Thank you so much
Nice to hear that, make sure you enjoy it and of course keep watching!
Great mods. really impressive.
Nice one thanks 🙂
Looks great! This has been a helpful video too, my 981 Cayman S in Amaranth Red Metallic arrived on Thursday of last week and the spoiler is slightly out of line, and needs adjusting to sit level and lower, so I now know what I need to do!
Glad it helped! Nice choice, that's a very rare colour, easy to fix, just shout if you need any help.
New subscriber, and really glad this has turned out so well; I love a ducktail spoiler and the badge position is spot on. Nailed it 👍
Awesome! Thank you! Of course it is you provided perfect measurements for me :)
@@TDS981 care to share them, I want to do this on my 981 as well :))
That looks killer - well done! I’ve thought about the ducktail for my 981S but never thought about moving the badge. I’d have to get brave to do that 😁
Go for it, just make sure you have a way back 😂
Looks great, nice classy mod 👌🏼
😎
I FAAAAAARKIN LOVE IT,,,can;t wait to get one for my car...thanks for supplying part numbers..nice work from Melbourne
Love your enthusiasm 👍👍👍 look forward to seeing it tag me on Instagram 🙂
well done Daz
Thanks Stuart :)
Looks fantastic well done mate
Darryl, thanks for this. I think i will try it on my 2015 Boxster GTS. I guess i am going to have to buy a set of sockets! Enjoy your content as it shows how these cars are put together.
Thanks Paul, good luck, part numbers in the description below.
Ducktail looks great, well worth the cost!! And the badge colour and position change is a good shout 👏👏👌👌
Thanks mate, glad you like it! Be good to see you and the 944 when we can!
@@TDS981 Yeh would be great to meet up sometime soon hopefully 🙏 Only did 200 miles between mot’s in the 944 last year!!
@@carbonshinedetailing8642 not good 😭
So great! Congratulations. So beautiful
Thank you 👍
Definitely a fan! Kudos!
Awesome, thanks!
What seems a small change really adds a lot... both the spoiler and badge move. Nice one.
Cheers Tim, the GTS models should have come like this
@@TDS981 Agreed... or at least a no cost option. Came over from your Instagram post. I'm @roxrede ... Where are you based in Scotland?

Cheers 👍
Yoooo!!!! That’s sick mate!!! Love it!! 🤘🏼😛
Next project for me aswell maybe...hmmmm🤔😅
Thanks.... Do it!!!!! Will look amazing on the wasp! 😎🔥🔥🔥
@@TDS981 i will really think about it 😄 I already cleaned my car from the winter pause. This weekend it starts to have around 17 degrees, so spring is coming and i‘m looking forward for some rides an Videos for this season😉
@@thewasp550 likewise hopefully we are all out and about again soon 🙏
You doing great video. Thanks for experience
Thanks 👍
Beautiful 🤩
Brother, you do amazing jobs keep up the awesome work!
Have you done & replaced the exhaust heat carbon fiber trim?...
Top video again Daz , have an idea for a segment in your next video....
Zaga
Cheers Zaga keen to hear it sir 👌
Someone crashed on the rear of my 981 and ran away and broke only my rear wing and the rear fog light . I did your mode with the oem parts as well. Came out really nice so thanks for that ✌️
Sad news, but yes all OEM, part numbers included in the video description.
Good choice on moving the Porsche lettering and changing the colour. Wouldn't look nearly as good without this step. A nice custom touch.
Won't be long before the Lairhillock opens again👍
Thanks Stuart, looked rather empty and even for sale so not sure. :(
@@TDS981 that's a blow Daryl, I didn't realise it had now closed. Just read that the AWPR had killed off its passing trade which is a shame as its improved the Netherlee road no end
@@stuipooey1 yes that makes sense tough times even without the new road.
Great mod!
👍👍👍
Looks awesome.
Thanks Tom, wouldn't have one without this now. 👍
Brilliant Daz. Saw You'd mentioned it on the Boxanet forum so jumped straight on to have a look. It looks the dogs twitcher but you do realise that I'm now adding this to my list having just fitted the X73 anti-rollbars after watching one of your previous videos.
Can you please just stop ...you're costing me a fortune 🤣
😂😂😂 I'm costing myself a fortune. If my wife is reading this the £150 I told you this cost, is entirely accurate.
Love it !!🥰
Yep looks the dogs danglies Daz. 👍
Thanks Sean, appreciate it, can't stop looking back at it now!
Looks like a spyder. Big difference. Beautiful.
👍 thanks, glad you like
Finally, a video about fitting spyder spoiler on a 981 - thanks! BTW do you perhaps have any information if the 991.2 sport design spoiler can be fitted to the 991.1?
Thanks for watching, sorry I'm not able to confirm on the 991 but I suspect the .2 is different so probably not a direct fit.
That looks fantastic, good work 👍
Thanks Andy 👍
Looks amazing - great video...could I please check in addition to the two brackets required are there any additional bolts / screws that need to be ordered for this project?
4 bolts yes, your parts guy will keep you right as they are in the same diagram.
Wow, superb video !!
I have a 981 boxster GTS in white, and i use not to like the rear of this car (i love all the rest lol). I found it too flat or too round, just to "simple".
This rear ducktail makes all the difference, and just wow, i love it now. This design is just perfect to my eyes, it really looks like a Spyder which i really love. With some of the angles, i sometimes see the sypder with its 2 bubles behind the driver and passenger's head lol
This is gonna make my car just look perfect !!
The price is quite high, 708€ here in France at Porsche (unpainted) + the brackets, but ill do it !
Im excited about doing it !!
Thanks for the video
Awesome, will look really good on your GTS I'm sure.
Bet you work in an operating theatre as I spotted a lap sponge. I love the darn things as they are lint free!
Ha ha. Thanks for watching 👍
Sweet!
Source, part numbers, cost??
Porsche OEM but I have seen aftermarket, for a new ducktail unpainted you are approaching £500, painting £150 to £200. Not cheap but should hold it's value.
Johnstone gardens , great little spot 👌
Busted 😃
@@TDS981 🤣🤣
Looks great very tempting. I think I would have liked the Porsche Letters in the centre height on the flat section though.
That's what you can do to yours 😂
Very nice
Cheers Eddie
If it weren't for the 3.8 lump behind my seats in my new (to me) 981 Spyder I'd be kicking myself for not going with a 981S and doing this! Great attention to detail!
Hey thanks for the message. Maybe I'll need to get a 3.8 installed next 🤣
Another great video. it does look good with this mod. Also, the repositioning and painting of the PORSCHE logo is a nice touch. Are you running your car on the road with no registration plate now? lol.
Glad you like it! Errrm I wish I hate the big yellow mess at the back but I kept it off just to show it off in its true form, took a screw driver out with me :)
@@TDS981 I would like to remove the front reg. plate as it spoils the front end look for me. When I see some US Boxsters without the plate it looks so much better. DO you think the 718 Spyder rear wing would work with my 718? I'll have a look.
The latest video is superb! New DT looks awesome I think there will be a rush of enquires at OPCs for this part.
Not sure if re positioning of PORSCHE logo would work without new spoiler - both together work really well.
Look forward to next video and also getting out there and driving the things!
Thanks for the feedback and comment Stephen I really do appreciate it and like to know what other owners think about yeh changes.
Next one won't be too long I hope, work has commenced!
Hope to be out again exploring soon👍
It’s about time! It looks like it was born with it, Perfect🤙 Thought about painting the roll bar body color?
Hi BB, nice to hear from you again, the answer is yes but not for me prefer it in black actually.
@@TDS981 can’t blame you, looks great in black.
First of all, thank you for a great video - well presented, informative, and entertaining; you come across as very relatable - friendly and engaging, but also very professional in your approach. I've now subscribed to your channel, as I've watched a couple of your other videos, and have been equally impressed bu them as well.
On a different note, I am interested in doing a similar mod to a 718 Boxster GTS 4.0, i.e. changing the OEM 718 spoiler for the ducktail spoiler from the 718 Spyder. Any ideas on how this is done? Are additional brackets required for this? What are the part numbers? How do you find an OEM spoiler from a reputable source (rather than some cheap, low quality, ill-fitting part, from ebay)?!?
Hi Tilum2, thank you for the very kind feedback, it's nice to hear and I appreciate you taking the time to leave a comment.
I think your idea is a very good one,.it will look awesome and I'm keen to see the pictures when you've done it.
For me the best place to source the part is from your parts desk at the nearest dealer or if you are lucky you can find a used one. Aftermarket options can be hit and miss so probably not worth the risk.
I don't have direct experience with the 718 but at a guess you will require 2 brackets and the spoiler itself. It will come primed so you'll need to have it painted as I did.
A quick search suggests this to be the part number for the 718 Spyder rear spoiler but please do your own research before ordering.
982-827-934-G
Thanks
Wow you did an Amazing job!!! I live in the United States and own a 2016 Black Edition ⚫ this is an excellent idea I believe I will be doing the same to my Porsche. Thank you for the inspiration and idea. Honestly PORSCHE should have done this to their Boxster in the first place or included it on several packages as an option. The Porsche looks so much better, more sporty and stylish a classier overall appearance and improvement. We approve! Job well done sir 👏 Bravo!!!
Thanks for the message, really appreciated. I agree it looks really good and everyone that sees the car compliments the change. I'm about to make another small tweak so stay tuned for that 👍
@@TDS981 Thank you sir, would you please mind sharing the exact measurements you used to position the new badge?
@@whipcashrecords if you look within the comments I'm sure I've answered this before a few people asked me.
Love this and plan on doing myself. Could you please share the measurements? I built a template based on a thread a found on rennlist but just want to verify vertical spacing!
My advice is to go with what you like, the original has Spyder writen underneath so you want to go slightly lower so it's more central. In the end it wasn't for me, I think it's too try-hard, and prefer the more subtle position.
Great video!!! Is that a 2,7 liter...? It sounds awesome! What have you done to the exhaust....?
Hi Roland, thanks for watching, it's a 3.4 flat 6, the exhaust is the original Porsche sports exhaust with the button on.
I have this model, same color. Maybe I'll do the same mod!
Glad to hear it 😁
Looks lovely! I'm soon to be in the market for a 981 2.7 Cayman and this is one of the things I want to do first. Is your ducktail an aftermarket brand or OEM? Not sure which one to go for!
OEM 👍
Hey, that duck tail looks really good. That looks like the one I'm getting. But it's gonna be a boxer, s, but I'm going to do it. The carbon fiber hood side mirrors skirts diffuser, and that duck tail, but that looks very nice.... Then I will have the trifecta. The Cayenne Turbo s the panamera Turbo s and now the boxer. Yes.
Nice one 👍🏼
This looks really good! Most people say that installing the GT4 rear spoiler negatively affects the aerodynamics of the 981 Cayman/Boxster. Any idea what affect will this change have?
Since this doesn't have any real aero advantages I don't think it applies but if you installed the GT4 picnic wing then that's another story!
Probably the duck tail will provide a lot more of down force, than the original.
From a supplier in US, it states to be used under your own risk. Specially at high speed. It recommends to install the front spoiler kit. I don't know if is it based on aerodynamics or just trying to sell the complete rear and front kits.
Any comments?
Thank you so much for the video, just got my Spoiler and had it painted! Would you mind sharing the measurements for the Porsche emblem? Will definitely have to do this too!
Thanks for the comment, I've moved the badge back to the lid it just didn't work for me. Top of the letter is 48mm down from the the reverse light if you follow the curve.
If I were doing it again I would position it further down the bumper than I did in the video since we don't have the Spyder badge underneath.
The PORSHE logo is Ok where you had it up high, just need to add Boxster S logo below where the Spyder logo would be.
I did my black 2014 Boxster S as follows:
Location same as the 981 Spyder but with Porsch logo on top and 981 logo where the Spyder logo would go. Painted both logos in Gloss Black
@@victorma9590 yes I think that would look better. Be good to see it if you have Instagram?
Great and informative video as always! May I ask what the cost of the parts is for this ducktail spoiler? Did you buy direct from Porsche UK?
Hi Jody, thanks. Yes available at the parts desk at Porsche for around £499 I think plus the cost of painting. Mine was used OEM it came from another car.
+1. The Ducktail spoiler looks great like it belongs there. . As a stock color,,, did the new ducktail spoiler come with color? .. My '98 993 Carrera S has F & R bumper fascia which can be purchased from Porsche AG with stock color; Arctic Silver metallic.
Hi Michael, they come primed from the dealer parts desk you need to get it painted on your own 👍. Be nice if it came painted bit probably way more expensive.
Just started watching your vids there great, I just purchased a Porsche Boxster 2.7,Where can i order the duck tail and also the rear diffuser you have it looks great?
Thank you, go to the Porsche centre parts desk, use the number I provide in the video description.
Great job. Can you post a link to where you bought your ducktail? I bought one online too but when arrived it was terrible quality so I haven’t put it on. To be fair I got a refund too. Thanks
Thanks Dylan. It's Porsche OEM I've added the part no.in the description. £500 unpainted.
Great improvement, and all the better for being OEM 👍
Are those 718 rear lights?
Thanks Clive, they are 981 GTS lights 👍
@@TDS981 ah ok, the overall effect is spot on, just as Porsche (should have) intended 😊👍
@@MsCliveharper yes all OEM that's what I love about the brand you can adjust the recipe to suit your requirements 👍
looks good mate reminds me of new aston martin a bit.
That's good I'll take that 👍
Def a fan of the duckbill look, personally would go badgeless
Yes definitely an option. Badge is now back up on top, I felt it was trying too hard down there.
Hi, love the spoiler, mind me asking which OPC you got it from? Seems quite cheap from what I was priced
I picked this one OEM one up second hand. Extremely lucky and then had it painted 👍
Looks great. How much were the spoiler and brackets chap?
I got this one used which was extremely lucky, from the parts desk I think around £650 primed but I'm not certain.
Great addition was this direct from Porsche? Can you divulge the cost?
It's a Porsche part, circa £500 for the part plus £150 for painting.
I’m doing the same with my 981 Boxster S too. What measurements did you use for moving the PORSCHE letters to the bumper cover? I have a stencil, but it is straight and clearly isn’t the way to position the letters. Please share! Thank you for the video too!!!
After all of that I reversed the decision, badge is back on the boot lid where it belongs. I decided I prefer it, with the plate on it didn't look quite right.
However, if you want to do it, take the measurements of your existing badge and replicate the positioning onto the bumper.
Starting with the 'S' as the centre point from the top of the letter, following the curve it is 48mm below the bottom line of the reversing light.
Good luck and thanks for watching!
Great work. Looks fantastic, including the re-positioned badge. (Now subscribed after finding a number of your very useful videos). I was inspired to investigate changing my 981 Cayman S spoiler for the GT4/Spyder ducktail as the standard spoiler appears to lift at either side after a period of time. This is something commented on a number of forums and OPCs have confirmed to me it's a known 'feature' ! I approached my local OPC to get some idea of costs and was informed the GT4 ducktail is a different part number than the Spyder ducktail although I'm fairly confident they are the same size and both are interchangeable and would fit a Cayman or Boxster. Any views / advice on this ? The 981 GT4 ducktail is nearly £100 more expensive than the 981 Spyder ducktail (probably as it's a GT product?) !!
Hi Steve, great to hear and thanks for subscribing. I've had this same conversation in reverse with someone who was looking to buy an aftermarket Cayman ducktail that was less expensive than the OEM Spyder version. I think that we concluded that it was probably worthwhile getting the right one for the car. I bet they are similar but the Cayman has a slightly different rear profile to the Boxster Spyder, the GT4 Ducktail is also fixed. The Spyder version rises just as the OEM spoiler. Have you researched what other Cayman owners have done?
I was comfortable with the Spyder one because I noted Porsche had done the same thing with the Spyder test car which was based on an ordinary Boxster.
@@TDS981 thanks for the response. I did research the aftermarket ducktail for the 981 Cayman and there are a few options that appear identical to GT4/Spyder design but would prefer to reduce the risk and probably go OEM if confirmed the GT4 ducktail can be installed and operate without limitation of being fixed as on the GT4 models !
@@stevefry4974 need to find a friendly GT4 owner who would let you try it out. They are quite easy to remove.
Could You tell me where you purchased the spoiler from. What colour did it come prior to spraying? Thanks. Great video.
Hi Ray, thanks for watching, it's an OEM spoiler from Porsche, it comes primed.
After you take everything off. Lower the spoiler down and bolt down the brackets until they can barely move than set the spoiler on it in the lowered position ajust it than raise it and tighten it all done.
👍 Yes pretty much. The brackets set the height for the panel gap too so you have some adjustment. You are right about the packaging 🤣 that was my attempt at repacking everything after I had pulled it all apart so I could go back and film that scene.
Great video! Can you tell me where I can get the same spoiler for my ‘14 Cayman?
I'm not sure about the Cayman I would Google it and see what you find out.
I dont suppose you still have the Measurements/spacings for dropping the PORSCHE badge do you ?
Hallo, looks great the duckteil in a boxter, i would like to know where did you order the parts and then i can do it as well on mein.. thanks
Thanks, the duck tail is an OEM part from the 981 Spyder, available at the parts desk of the Porsche dealer.
@@TDS981 Thank you very much for the info..
Great indeed what did it cost including painting pls ?
A lot! OEM is going to cost you £650, aftermarket a bit less but it's going to have a good residual value as they are rare!
@Richard-Mark Dodds ⬆️
I'm sold! Who sells the correct painted Ducktail in the USA? There are about 3-4 and not sure which is closest to OEM.
Suncoast sells the OEM version but only supplied primed. Another option could be Spoilernation but I have no direct experience.
Did you notice any instability at high speeds? At 100mph, 120, 150? Whats the effect - do you feel more downforce than before ? I'm thinking about getting this but I want this to be functional and don't want to sacrifice stability.
I have no concerns whatsoever, remember that it is an OEM Porsche 981 part and not a dodgy copy moulded with a different shape. it's tried and tested and I note absolutely no difference in the way it drives. When Porsche designed and tested the Spyder it was an essentially an ordinary 981 with a ducktail and a 3.8 in the back. The humps were added for aesthetics and for the roof mechanism.
Where did you get the spoiler from? Did you buy it painted or have to get that done?
OEM Porsche part and yes a local shop painted it in Guards red.
I think you are really John Travolta, taking time out between movies to give us great advice!
🤣🤣🤣 do you know what they call a Quarter Pounder with Cheese in Scotland? ...
@@TDS981 Are you referring to the entree from McDonald's Restaurants?
@@azmike3572 pulp fiction 👍
Love it! Looks great! Would love to see you add the Spyder front bumper/spoiler/splitter to balance it out more. I actually think Porsche should have an option to add both spoilers to the regular S or GTS because as lovely as a Spyder is, that top is ghastly. This would create a nice car that's in between the two. I know that would probably make the Spyder seem less special but it would allow for a more aggressive look for those who would prefer that with a top that actually works everyday. For instance, I would love to have the new 718 GTS 4.0 with the Spyder front spoiler and ducktail rear spoiler and still basically have the same performance but with a top that works.
Thanks Trey, yes I would like the Spyder front end too or even a nice little lip for the front. Appreciate the suggestion 👍
I think you are bang on about offering this as an option, I think it should have been included with the GTS to give it that special something. I love the Spyder very keen perhaps to buy one some day but then when my roof is down it's down and can leave it in the garage like that too.
Where did you order these parts mate? I'm looking to get the ducktail to go with the GT4 Spoiler for my 981 Cayman. Do you think they use the same parts?
Parts desk at the dealership is generally where I get my parts. No they are slightly different I understand. If you have a gt4 spoiler you'll need one that doesn't rise.
@@TDS981 Are they charging yo astronomical prices?
Not always 🤣
Where did you buy this? How much? Will this fit on a 718 Boxster? Great content. Thanks.

It looks brilliant but for a piece of plastic, it's a bit costly. I'd love to have on my Boxster too, though.
Everything on these is costly but they make us smile 😂
@@TDS981 Please, stop saying things like that, you're going to make me buy one 😁
Does anyone know if this will fit a 2015 Cayman?
I'm not 100% sure but you can buy the Cayman ducktail aftermarket as many others have done.
Just tried this install on my own Boxster S, but noticed a 1-2mm gap when fully down- any idea how to fix that?
Probably just that you need to put the adjuster down a bit before you install it
@@TDS981 So I've followed your video but when it came to lowering the spoiler (holding the button down completely) there is still a noticeable gap between the spoiler and the bottom. I've lowered and raised it several times but still not sitting flush and noticeable (2-3mm gap) I did some research online but not found any ways of fixing. Any ideas or things to try would be greatly appreciated!
@@jordan860322 your height adjustment is about 3m in the video. The adjusters need to go further down.
My ducktail is OEM if yours isn't that could also be why.
@@TDS981 I see, how do you move the adjusters further down? Thanks for all your help! Appreciate it
Tighten them.

100% OEM but pre owned.
what a great find... and a nice simple but effective upgrade.
@@boblowe9037 thanks Bob, sadly it was the wrong colour but had it painted and it came out perfectly. If you buy from the OPC they come primed.
my local Porsche dealer quoted me $1650 + tax spoiler and paint ! thinking I'd be better off putting that towards buying the whole GT4 lol... keep up the good work
@@boblowe9037 that's ridiculous, the cost of painting through the OPC is probably the issue there. Thanks appreciate the feedback, next enhancement video coming soon👍
What is the bolt for the front? The Porsche illustration only list the back bolt.
I'm referring to the two bolts that hold the ducktail to the bracket. ;-)
How many bolts does the Porsche illustration list. Should be 4.
@@TDS981 Just one for each side. Are they they same bolt front and rear for the bracket?
@@FL981S I think so they are M6 torx but I don't remember for sure, it's odd that PET doesn't show them.
@@TDS981 its is odd. Shows the back 2. Sometimes these Porsche parts illustrations are lacking. I see you're GTS-ifiying your Boxster. I'm doing a hump less Spyder with mine(2015 Box S, Rhodium Silver over Yachting Blue) . GT4 rear diffuser already on. I have the ducktail now(obviously) and a complete GT4 front bumper assembly sitting in my dining room awaiting paint. Do you have an Instagram?
Would like a ducktail but just too expensive
Certainly not a bargain 👍
Have you seen the sports tail pipes in real life? It's a silly thing for 600 bucks, right :) Anyway, there aren't very many things I could think of I might get from Tequipment.
Hi, my car had them from new but yes expensive to add later. What have you done to yours?
@@TDS981 Mine was pretty well optioned already, but I have since added the cruise control, aluminium pedals, fuel cap, cargo liners, winter floor mats, winter wheels and jerry can. I have the interior and exterior GTS package, so other than the pipes, there is nothing I would do. E.g. illuminated door sills for 1000 bucks is a bit too wanky for me :)
do you still remember where you bought this from?
It's an OEM part from Porsche
@@TDS981 cool! it fits Cayman as well right?
@@petrolnate6766 no the Boxster and Cayman are different.
The spoiler looks great, but anything that's Plasti Dipped never lasts. The black factory lettering is not that expensive if you're going that far with the project, so just buy them
Mike I agree but at the time I wasn't sure if it was going to stay so I wanted the solution to be reversible. If the coating fails I'm tempted to get the vinyl emblem from the gt4 clubsport for a cleaner look.
Great job but that spoiler is not for me prefer the original.
Fair enough. It's becoming quite a common thing to do now.

Never mind. Watched your video again and can see why. Someone on CZcams has a similar mod done on a Cayman but didn’t show the need for the brackets. Must be because he ordered a 3rd party part rather than an OEM, which would have been a GT4 wing... Thanks again!
Lovely work, mate. I’m hoping to get a red 981 Boxster before Christmas. 😄🦘🇦🇺
