Sorry I didn't respond ACTION, I've been away. Yes my wing is hollow on the inside, and it has held up quite well on its own. I think it has been on there maybe 5 years?
For those other guys, I don't know when I'm even getting a replacement wing, but when I do, I'll post on here about selling it.
And when I get the ERC wing, I am going to have it molded into the body, however I wouldn't do that with the Kamanari wing as the lines don't line up with the body well enough to not need to use excessive amounts of filler, which will cause cracking. I suggest if you want to mold it, find another wing. Just my opinion though.

At first I was very sceptical of It but my cousin said to we "the wing gives the car an attitude". Now I can only agree with him. It's my trademark.

Hey Tony post some more pics of your car 
higher res this time!!!, i can host them for a bit if wanted..
Pm me.
AreExSeven THink its a good idea to fill it in with cocking to keep it from cracking or breaking? does yours have any cracks?
How does yours mount too? mine mounts the way you can see..... 2 bolts at the back and the little things under the window at the front. im afraid this will not be enough.. if i get up to speed, wind will get under the sides of the wings.. and possibly rip it off.
Does water get in underneath the wing and sit there?
anyways heres some underside pics..

Action that **** is too big man, I think the only way for that to look good would be to get the body kit. It just seems like you would need a lot of flares to go with that wing its really huge, I wouldent put it on my TII...But hey if you like it then...

I didn't think I'd like the wing either, but I saw Silverrotor's at a fall meet, and the fit was really good, looked like OEM finish. I don't think that parts looking car does the piece justice.

Mine mounts the same as yours, but I have had no problem with it moving. In fact, I think it is on there pretty good. Now the bumper is another story
I've never seen water underneath the wind, but it does get trapped in the groove that the hatch closes into, but I think it does that whether you have a wing or not.
