very nice, looks very good... i wonder though if it would look a bit better with the wing being on shorter base stands... it just looks soooo high right now haha

I think if you saw it in person you might like it better. I think the wing really sets off the car and without it his z would blend into the crowd. It is certainly high but it gives it the function over form look which it pulls off nicely. Looks very aggressive.

Everyone has an opinion though.

i agree.. im sure it looks better in person...

i've read that for our cars, the wing should be in the high to mid-range (height wise) for the proper down force to be achieved... and i guess IMHO it would look better in the mid-range and it would still have the proper functionality... so best of both worlds i guess

You got a "ticket" for the wing. They passed by our cabin and said you were the first one to get a ticket... I woke up the next morning only to find a ticket for too many stickers

We get them next year?
