Not feeling it. Looks like you heated up the OEM wing and bent the corners.

not feeling it either. but props for doing your own thing. the piece itself looks like you done quality work, but the design needs work.

Thanks. Working on a revision, the more I look at it the more I see how to improve it. Overall turned out well for a first try on a custom piece.

yeah i totally agree that for a first attempt it came out very well made. wow dense foam was what you used. i remember the old school mugen stuff used something similar for their wings. do you see a difference in wait between the two. gl luck on the redesign.

Yes the dense foam is solid, it has a layer of epoxy on top, sanded primed and painted. It is hard to imagine "foam" as being rock solid and a few pounds heavier than stock. OEM piece appears to be a (hollow?) blow-molded piece.

Love the HREs and the drop. The spoiler is extremely unique and flows with the car.
