Angry 1991 RX7 convertible Wing problem Help!!!!!

I have a 1991 RX7 convertible. I bought a new wing from exteme dimensions for it.
It came in one piece and goes across the trunk. I have to cut it How do I fill in the gap between the cuts or does anyone know of a wing for this car that comes in 3 pieces.

Is it a proper "vert" wing?

A proper ver wing has tabs underneath on the inside edges that enable you to fix it to the actually boot/trunk lid.

what are your supporting mods and internal mods that you found it necessary to twin turbo your car? Also do you think that top mount is eficient enough to cool both of those turbos?

Interesting setup im curious to know how it works for you!

I like the look of the wing but dont know about verts, you are probally going to have to find a vert specific wing.

breckboarder55 : Here's a rough list, I don't want to fill up this thread about my car though. I'm currently switching to front mount at present and will have the car back on the road in about a week. With top mount and granny spec driving, because I don't have a hand controller or datalogit to tune the ecu boost was starting at around 2000rpm. I'll be posting a big writeup once it's done.

Here's a rough list of what's on mine (well will be in the case of the FC2000 bumper).

Re Amemiya Fc2000 Bumper
Re Amemiya Strutt Brace
Re Amemiya Responce Filter
Re Amemiya Leads
After market fly/clutch combo
Trust IC ~112mm
Twin TD05 18G turbo's
Twin GTR External Wastegates
3" dumps merging to 4" exhaust
Bosch Fuel pump
Highflowed Primaries
1000cc 2ndaries
FD Power FC
Rebuilt motor (lightened rotors no porting)
LSD
Water Injection
16" Davies thermo
Greddy Type R BOV
Greddy Throttle Elbow
Relocated battery
Buddy Club Spec R coilovers

Plenty more that I can't think off right now

As for the wing, your right. That's why I specifically asked him if it was a vert wing.

It sounds like you bought one of the coupe wings... the one (at least that I know of, on the Mazdatrix page) for the 'vert isn't a 'wangan' wrap-around but just a (relatively) straight one-piece that sits on two pedestals on the trunk lid.

I've never seen or heard of ones like Worm Burner posted the pics of before...
