Who makes GT wings for FC's?

The only company that makes them that I know of is RE Amemiya, but it is about $1100 +shipping. I will need a GT wing for I will be tracking my car this coming season. Does anyone know any other companies or have any suggestions?

What are you going to do to balance the massive imbalance between front and rear downforce that wing will cause?

This is the wing I plan to put on my car someday sooner or later... when I decide to do the exterior... It can be found at www.streetconcept.com... just do a search for the fc for all available and you will find it.. It's most likely universal as the display pictures are of other cars... could just be on a vert tho, but I like because it's not a park bench

The wing should be at least as high off the rear as the chord length (that's the length from the front of the wing to the rear) for maximum effectiveness.

AutoRnD sells some brackets to fit FC's.

I think I am going with the bracket from AutoRnD. Chokets makes the brackets. Then I can get either a voltex or APR universal wing. That sounds like a plan.
