Default Wind Tunnel Tested Aero

Don't flame me if this is a repost I just love these functional aero pieces, plus they look awesome! The package includes front bumper, front diffuser, hood, sides, wing, and rear diffuser. Made in dry carbon

Needs a bigger wing. That one requires 80mph before lift off.

That kit is HOT...
Although I would probably go without the wing too.

Talking I...

actually have that wing. It's great! When I am stuck in traffic birds of varying species will land and sit perched upon it, save those who do not collect around the air which is vaporized around my Zs body due to the nose and skirts.

You don't know what you're missing.

the wing in the wind tunnel is a different wing then the rest of the pictures. It is smaller. IMO it looks better with the smaller wing.

Their time attack Evo ran 54'759 at Tsukuba, not the fastest but still respectable. Function doesn't always look good to everyone, just look at the wings on the SuperGT cars. I'm a firm believer in form follows function

Adam: I thought they produce wings in dry carbon? I'm not sure about the rest of the aero pieces.

yeah the spoilers might be...the rear diffusers they do for the evo might be s well (we have it on ours, along with the wing, but its been so long I don't remember lol). The rest of their stuff is std frp but fits well in my experience

So what if the Z doesn't have a back seat? A bench works equally well.

I would call bulletproof auto if you are looking for this kit. Not sure if it's listed on their site, but they can get you just about anything.
