Ugh- that APR wing is non-functional in terms of adding drag to the Z at all legal speeds. It also doesn't provide any appreciable downforce until speeds reach over 90 MPH. That's a performance quotient that makes no sense for the cost.

I'm not buying it for the down force or anything like that, I just like the looks of it, I was thinking about the nismo spoiler but those are just too common, so im going down a different path. I try finding this spoiler but can't find it, is it the APR cts 200?

Ansolutely, postively rice- OP says nothing about going to the track, but does state he "likes the look of it". No real interest in tracking and hopefully not a street racer idiot.

Wasn't meaning to call you out or anything, just homeboy calling the wing rice on a Z that sees track time.

Default Apr drag wing

Hello Everyone..

So I just got done installing a APR GTC 200 drag wing on my car. The thing is, it sort of vibrate and wobble a little at 70+ mph....is it suppose to do this?

Here's a pic of my beast so far..

I had a really cheap one do this on a different car. I was under the impression it only did it cause it was made with cheap plastic, a friend put it on once I took it off and it eventually ripped off from the braces.
Put it wobbled quite a bit like a thin piece of cardboard would it you attached it to your trunk lol.

Maybe they all shake a tiny bit.. but I'd keep your eye on it and if it starts to crack around the mounting holes I'd get a stronger one cause eventually it will fly off if you don't keep an eye on it

I like that APR wing and v3 front, but not with the mods you have going on. The wheel choice, yellow headlight paint, "jdm" decal, Dodge SRT gold stripes on the fender don't flow together at all. GT wings belong on cars with a track/functional look and this just doesn't work.

Everybody have their own opinion on what mods looks best. To me i think it looks awsome, who cares if the origination of the stripes belonged to the dodge srt, to me, their just stripes. For the GT wing, its not like I got those tall *** ones, I wanted one that was low profile that still looked good with my car since I had the V3 front, without a wing would've look awful in my opinion. But in all I think the car flow quiet well with the color scheme.
