You can't do a 964 widebody like the Rauh Welt cars on a 996/997. The proportions of the new cars are much much different and they're also much larger. It will take a lot of custom work, and even then, it will still look like shit.
The wing might look ok, but it's designed to go on the much larger decklid of the air-cooled 911s. The little flap decklid on the 997 isn't big enough. I'm sure you could have something custom made, but it will need to be cut and grafted. It's also very upright, because the older cars have a much more sloping back-end, whereas the new cars have a high, fat ass. If you like that look, check out the Gemballa wing from the 996:
Porsche 911 Gemballa GT500 Biturbo Type 996 - rear right - Dustball 4000 Rally (Piazza Republica, Florence, Italy, 17-Jun-06) - Exotic Spotting in Europe - 98octane Photography - - Prestige car forums, sales and rentals
Regarding Wicked 7, notice how all of the cars are salvaged. I've been up close and personal with their work and it's all been a disaster. Good for the poseur crowd.
