New Lip Wing-
Ok guys I want a nice Cf wing to augment my car, something that will fit on the trunk of a vert and still fit on a coupe.



I made the wing and still need to finish it off one of these days. I put it on hold for financial reasons, but you get an idea of the shape.
What I did was glass over the trunk with tape behind the glass and the rest of the car taped off that way I had a base shape, then I cut foam backed paperboard for the ribs, hot glued the same board over the ribs, fiberglassed over that, and that is what you see. I will bondo, sand, wet sand and make a mold and one of these days have one in CF.
I hope it fits well. Tell me what you guys think. I think the shape is great.

Not bad...just not sure it beats either of these wings for a vert.

I'd be interested in seeing if once it looks the color of the car. Nevertheless, I admire the creativity. It shows promise.

yeah you have to imagine it finished in CF and installed. The other spoilers are :bleh:
and on the vert the hole is on the tailight, and on a coupe it is below the third light, which is partially blocked by the wing, but I dont care.
