hey fairlady, how's your car mods coming along?

my prototype does not look like a celica wing... there was a celica parked in the lot outside when i went to pick it up, and I compared... the wing tips on this drop lower, the shape/curvature is different, and there is also a funny U-shaped "ridge" on the celica one which looks kinda ugly IMO

the legs though do look similar... but they also look like the ones on a tiburon (also parked outside) ... I'm not surprised though since they told me they'd be using an OEM-style/generic mold for the legs anyway

Hi Onii - the price he quoted for my SINGLE wing was 890... which is how much I had to pay to get this prototype finished... he had to charge me the full price in case I didn't come back with the group buy...

The group buy price will be (shop's quote) around 400-450 cdn... 290-320 USD... but I'll need to call and confirm once we get the final number of orders... the only reason it's so cheap is because they already had a mold for the mazdaspeed wing which looks similar

Anyway like I said, i test fitted it on my Z, and it looks awesome... probably as close to japan pics as I could have hoped... now if i can only find a neighbour that has a data transfer cable for my fuji digicam...

Keep us posted Strife. And no matter what........... Thanks for spending the initial $ for R&D so that others may acquire it for less. Very comendable.

When you get the wing on, take some pictures and tell us how easily the trunk opens with it on. Give us your full review. Thanks.

I'd like to take orders until the 21st... or when we've got 6... if you're really interested, pm me and maybe i can pay first or something... but i'd be doing a favour and i'll probably need a deposit since the money would be going to the shop, not me...

Is the wing being made with the metal legs or with the normal base like in the pictures of the black Z?

Why be so conservative?

I would like to see a Z with a higher wing, like the one Integra type R uses...

oh, I lied, the wing above is just a universal wing.

The one I was thinking of was the Mugen one. The pic below is a replica.
it is not that low, it's not that high, perfect.
