Yes, longer than 3" ... I agree. I am also no expert. By saying 3+ I was anticipating something longer, but Julian's video only notes how much longer Porsche made the roof spoiler (something like 46mm longer), not how long it was in its earlier form, so I guessed. I cannot start another project right now, anyway, given how behind I am in current parts installation ...

See my car's mod & maintenance thread and my electric bicycle's thread for ongoing projects. I will rebuild Black and Green over decades as parts die, until it becomes a different car of roughly the same shape and color. My minimum fuel economy goal is 55 mpg while averaging posted speed limits. I generally top 60 mpg. See also my Honda manual transmission specs thread.
