GT-II Wing
1. jknapik (CF)
2. Mr. Stock(CF)
3. RacerJason (FRP preferably)
4. integlspwr (Best Value)

integlspwr, I believe the genuine RE-A wing is 1600 MM wide. Chris can confirm all the dimensions since he has the RE version on his car.

Mike, sorry about the delay, i will be emailing you soon.

Chris in this picture, can you give me the measurements where it says 32"



I need to see if it will still mount on my trunk and the posts are not too far apart..

Thanks!

It would be awesome if the hood could get done before worrying about a wing.....

I think the ROI on a wing is more than a hood, can someone confirm?

don't worry guys, the hood is being worked on as we speak.

Meanwhile, for those interested in the wing, please express your interest or it won't happen.

the model im talking about looks like this, its only the mounting brackets im scared for.

From GT2 to GT3 they made a small change just the height of the brackets

i was part of another GB and there were nice pictures of it but i dont want to cross any forum rule, so if i can il post the forum post. and you can tell me what you think . I dont know how to use photo throught URL properly so id prefereably just want to copy paste it.

JKL could take the template and use it to make them. Let me know if i can.

From what I can see the pictured bases are completely different from the Amemiya ones unless toomuchboost can tell me otherwise.

I havent had a chance to measure it... The stance is wider than thats one for sure if you look at my car the brackets are close to the very end on the hatch... Being that 240 are wider than a RX7 and the hatch is not nearly as wide as a 240 rear trunk I would assume however it will still fit.

i have no problem with the RE wing, im just asking about the mounting brackets. Since i also have seen a couple of cars with the wing. I gave seen some really HIGH brackets and wouldnt want it to look like a table top siting on the trunk of my car. The Shorter version of the brackets would be nice to have, what do you guys think?

Maybe the wing deserves its own group buy/thread to draw more attention... I consider myself lucky I stumbled across it in here.

We are delaying the entire shipment slightly to add the hoods in there as well. They are being worked on so looking at another 2-3 weeks until they can be finished due to the Thanksgiving holiday. We are trying to get the factory to finish everything before they close for Christmas.

We are trying our best and we don't want to push the factory too far and result in drop in quality so please bear with us and we will get them done asap.

BTW, we have sent out email to each of you who sent us order details since the widebody kit production is done and they are finishing up the last couple bumpers. So your remaining payment is due. Let us know if you have any other questions!
