Very tempting on the lip. All though it seems a little bit more agressive than i want. Do you have any pics of it painted to match? i think that would be the desiding factor for me.
$400 for the wing with mounts and all accessories sounds like an ok price to me. I'll have to save up a bit, cause i'd want to paint the wing to match.
Thanks for the heads up on the lip tho, like i said, i just need to seem some pics of it painted and what not. Thanks again.

OK, I'm thinking to redesing the GT legs I have. They look too normal. I want to make it look like.... "It's for a Z." Anyone got any good ideas? This is the legs only...

maybe you can designs legs something like this, make it so that the top bottom bars and the bars that crosses forms the Z symbol and leave the front and back parts the same. possibly have it carbon fiber covering the metal or for the front and back and the z in the color of the door handles or they can just color match it.
APR stands are like almost $100 themselves ... i dont get why they cost so much! :P
but this is a pretty cool idea.. just hope it doesnt "flap" like a bird.. make sure your pedistals are wide!!!!
from previous experience, a 16 inch width pedistals on a 59 inch wide touring wing still produced enough vibrations to flap like a bird...... then i decided to get carbon fiber wing, and that cracked at the pedistal joints from constant vibrations too!
but alas.. i will attempt yet another touring wing sometime in the near future.. just hope yours wont have those problems....
are you gonna shave the ends of that wing smooth and add some type of vertical fins? otherwise its pointless to have a wing like that. there's nothing to prevent the wind vortex wrapping around the edges.

After put on this wing on a CS Z. I notice the wing is just too high. Ineed a shorter leg. Looks like its about 2 inchs off. I will make it the same height as the nismo wing. what you guys think? But the leg will look very short. humm...
