DONT change the wing...wald looks sick on the car...much much better than veilsides wings...
always loved the wing since my friend had it on his porsche
doesnt need to be widened at all....especially since it would cost a lot more money for a non-neccessary change
basically you should do what you like and think looks good
good work

I never really liked the Wald wing when I saw it on the "Continental" sponsored car. It just looked redundant with the back of the Z taking a circular shape along with the spoiler taking a ring structure. The wing just looked too much for the car's rear end.
With your rear fenders widened, the wing definitely looks more well-placed. The lines of the car swoop up from the sides to meet up with the roof and spoiler. Looking forward to seeing it finished.

Ditto. Looks hawt. Anxiously awaiting pics of the finished product.
I am glad you didnt go rice with one of those GT Wings with the erector set pylons. They look like a cheap add on even though they run up to 2 grand. They have no place on a car that has this kind of expense going into it.
Keep posting pics. I am a fan.

Personally, I think the wing may be a bit narrow and a bit too rounded. My personal preference tends towards contrasts. YOu have a widebody that follows the origional curves of the car, why not offset it with something a bit more angular?
By the way, Ben's wing is the Power Enterprise wing. I think something similar may go very well with it.

gt wings, although sometimes look like they belong and look decent will never look better than a traditional fiberglass wing (ie. a wing that can be painted)

I think you should paint the car Slice Orange (like the beverage). Either that or that bright lime green from the Lambo's looks sweet too! I think both of those colors are unique and would stand out nicely. Niether would hide the curves.

yeh man I think the Wald wing in too narrow for your widebody.
If I went with a wing it would be a gt wing, but I am trying to go without one completely. They have a few Gt CF wings that are not as low as bigblacktracks but not as tall as thatck's.
That might do the trick.

I like the WALD wing in the pics. It looks much better with the flaired fenders than it does on the stock fenders.
very porsche like. It's also clean and shows class while still being agressive.

After looking at the wing on the car I am going to keep it. It has a much classier look then a GT wing. I think it will fit the car nicely.
