Well I got my Ebay wing in and the finish of it is pretty good. It is very wide though at 61". I am 6'0" and it comes up to my chin.

Anyone know if you can buy just wing legs without a wing somewhere? I may just make my own out of this 3/8" aluminum, but if there is an inexpensive readily available set of legs, I may go with those.

found this one that looks pretty good and not a bad price for carbon.

59" x 9" with a 42.5" base. should put the legs right at the edge of the quarters.

Well we installed the wing on a spare trunk for an event on Friday just as it came out of the box. with the wing at a flat 0* AOA it made a substantial difference. We pre dented the trunk in the rear where it would have pushed in a little anyway and got it mounted very solid. It held on well and we were at speeds close to 140mph.

I will post some pictures in a little.

I will get some better ones, but this will have to do for now. Only one I could find and it's from the track.

Yup that's his. It has the lemons car hood right now for the vent since he didn't want to put hood pins in his.

All 61" of it. Makes ALOT of downforce even at 0*. I may get the 56" version for my n/a
