Wink Wing?

I have a 350z roadster, and want to add a wing. I never see any convertible's with wings. What's up with that? Too much weight?:

Default I love this wing

I like the stillen wing, but prefer this one(INGs)... I don't think the weight is a concern, just lack of options.

Default one more

I like the central 20 wing as well.. Looks nice on a stock bodied ZR(Most of the others don't in my opinion)

16 customs in gardena, call Hiro and get a quote. (310) 715-1810 He painted a lot of kits for people on my350z, all seem to be happy with the paint job.

Hi Tony,
I went online and purchased my wing from Steve Millen Parts. I paid $368 for the wing that was specifically made for the convertible.
I don't know if it was a good deal or not, but I'm guessing the price is closely comparable to just about anyplace else online.
After ordering, I got it in about 3 business days.

Thanks a million. I'll check it out.
Price-wise, is he pretty reasonable?

daZgirl,

If thats a shipped price, I would say it is a good deal.

Let me know how the paint and install goes. I will order mine soon.

Thanks,
Tony

+1. You'll be very satisfied.

Price-wise, I would say around $250-300 to paint/install. A bit pricey, but get it done right.

How long would it take to paint the stillen wing plus the install? At least a few days at the shop?

Default painting

That's not too bad for painting and installing. I'm holding off until I find the right place to do it, since I want it to match perfectly.
