FAL on 992 worthless...
I'll make this short. 991.2 to 992 have totally different approach angle and clearance. Brake ducts, which were 80% of the scraping on the 991.2 are now on the control arms of the 992 and don't raise anymore. Biggest issue is that when you lift the front, you now scrape the rear fins on the diffuser.

^this 100% and TBH, if you approach it right, FAL off, rear is ok and front can be finessed The rear scraping is 1000 times worse in my mind.

Why don't have include a rear lift option as well?

I'm sure some day we'll hear someone cracking the rear diffuser if one is careless enough and does the scraping at speed or at an angle.

Is this a reason to avoid FAL ?

I remember when my GT3RS was being offloaded from the private enclosed trailer, the driver would not raise the FAL and said the rear diffuser will not survive if he did (speaking from experience).
