I have their hood, and the CF quality is really good.

This wing, by evo-r, isn't carbon but its low profile and I was considering this one too. What do you guys think?

Thanks for that link.... im not really a fan of that daytona wing after seeing some of the other low profile CF wings, but I do like this one a lot... so now I am deciding between this one (CF laguna seca type 2), my ings replica, and that EVO-R wing painted DB. Which one does everyone else like best?

It looks like 1x1 weave also sometimes called "JDM" weave. Its tighter weave then most hoods which are 2x2.

Here is another one -- a bit high for my taste, but an option none-the-less:

Its mounted right, it just goes low enough to cover your stock nissan hamburger holes but not all the way down... thats my only problem with it. It can look a bit out of place since it doesnt go all the way down... but it had good shape and you could stick a fairlady z emblem between the bottom of the spoiler and the bottom of the hatch.

So yeah... evo-r, ings, or laguna seca type 2 cf.... ? ? ? opinions? I always loved the ings but im thinking it might be too bulky for me these days.

No that red Z has the spoiler on wrong. that bottom edge is supposed to goto the bottom of the hatch.

Are you guys sure? I thought it only went low enough to cover the holes... it doesnt look like its sitting wrong and i imagine that it would be sitting at a weird angle if he had it all cocked up too high.

Anyway if someone has a picture of it on "right" i would love to see it.

I think there is some confusion about 2 different wings. The INGS is supposed to come down and line up with the bottom of the hatch, but I think that EVO-R wing is installed correctly where it is.
