Voltex Style Wing

Hey guys,

I came across a seller that has the Voltex style GT Wing available for our cars (FD).

He originally only made them for the EVO but I asked him if he can make one for me and or change it for my FD. He said he can make them for us (FD's) for the price of $580-$640 shipped depending on what we decide on style.

I have to get a group buy together of min 10 people for him to produce it for that price and provide it for us.

Who would be interested? I think it's a really good deal for a good quality spoiler.

Which style would we prefer and go with and then how many people would be interested?

The look of it is exactly like #1.

Wing

Sorry, should have clarified. The wing will look like the one in the first picture. The Voltex style one.

The pictures are in reference on how we would like the placement of the stands. Either wide trunk edge to edge or centered

would the mounting holes line up with our stock ones, best option for me would be stock location.

I spoke to the guy yesterday and he emailed me with this (BELOW). He can even make a replica of the J's racing type spoiler for the FD. All I really have to do is give him our trunk dimensions as to where we want the mounts to go.

I think the stock location is edge to edge right? Let me know what you guys think. This is a great deal if we can get at least 8 people interested in it.

"As for your car and the specifics in terms of dimensions, etc, the process is really simple like I said. All I need are the dimensions ore measurements of where on the trunk you want the stands installed, and I can go ahead and have them made. I think the best thing right now is to use either the Evo Voltex or the S2K J's racing blade, and make brackets to fit the FD's hatch dimensions. That way, I am only really investing in the stands and now a WHOLE new blade. The stands will taper inwards for a slightly more aggressive look too. It will be a whole new design b/c even RE-A is a straight mount setup. Let me know how that sounds."

If you have some pics of his actual work it will help promote the product. I'll be keeping an eye on this thread to see how it plays out.

Hey guys, sorry for the delay in response. I've been away for work. I will get some pics of his work and see if he's got anything that he can send for me to show you guys.

Thanks again for the interest. I am personally going to pick up the Voltex Style spoiler definitely soon.

Hey guys, I ordered my Voltex wing from this guy and to see how it looks and see what the brackets fit like. I was thinking instead of having him custom make the brackets for me, I can always play around with them once I get them. I will keep you guys posted and show pics when I receive it.

The Re wing in the second pic looks sick! but I'm not crazy about the ones in the 1st and second picture. My initial reaction was wow "Gillette Mach 3." It probably looks better with the rest of the car in the picture

That's funny. I actually pictured it as the Gillette Mach 3 lol.

Here's a pic of the wing on the FD.
