When can we expect the finished product
 

I was just wondering when we could expect shipment.

Thanks

approximate date please?
 

When does the ship date start?

I'm guessing sometime in the not-too-distant future.

Sorry about the late reply, been overloaded lately so barely got time to check the forum.

Since the factory is currently lined up with projects, they being really slow on our projects since we threw too many prototyping projects to them at one time. Specially for this wing, they have to test out if the added core structure will work during the production. So it is taking longer than we expected. However, we will push them to complete the prototyping in the next couple weeks so we can get things rolling back on track again.

Thanks, will follow.

Cool!! I'll be checking back.

I just sent in my deposit.Hope it is going well.

FD for me, and my order is for FRP not CF

Great Googgelly Moogelly!!! I did something good! HA! bump.

I'm interested in a CF one for an FD.

I might be persuaded....
 

After seeing the GOTO:TAPPED 66 car at Thill last weekend, and assuming this wing is the same as is on that car, I could be persuaded to join this (FD, CF). Do we have final pricing yet?

I really need the downforce, as I'm running more power than the 66 car and power drifting through turn 7.......

Beast... I believe the final pricing is located in the 1st post of this thread.

As far as I know, it has not yet changed.

im still interested in the wing.

can someone measure how wide apart the stands are?

im worried my s2000 trunk my not be wide enough and it might ending mounting onto the body of my car vs the trunk.

Do you need more deposits to get this going, or is this already in progress? I'll gladly throw in.:)

This project is already in progress since we already got enough deposits to initiate the GB. However, we have changed our GB policy a while ago so only those who send in their deposit during the first production batch will get the GB discount. In other words, once we pass the test fitting session, the official first production batch will start. Then we will close this GB once that production batch is completed. After that, prices will go back to retail level.

So when does this mean we will get our wings? :) I'm looking to do some track events with wings.

We are trying to keep things moving as fast as they can. But then, we have multiple open GB's as well as several background projects going at the same time so things do move slower than usual. So we will definitely try our best to have these ready for you guys asap. First of all, we will need to test fit the sample unit before we can proceed so it really all depends on how quickly the sample unit can be finished and tested.

Update:

There are some changes in the reinforcing strategy that is being applied for the wings. The tech guys at the factory have estimated the weight increase for both aluminum tubing and honey comb core techniques but end up with the final weight of the wing being way too heavy. They were also afraid that the aluminum tubing might break free from the resin foundation then move freely inside the wing and cause internal damage. If other hardware are applied internally to secure the tubing, it will add even more weight. Honey comb core is also difficult to work with due to the surface curvature of the wing in some area.

So what we have figured out is to add extra layers of reinforcing materials internally around the area between the two mounting points. The extra materials will be applied all around the interior to maximize the reinforcement effect. This way, we can minimize the weight addition while increasing the strengths. We are now sorting out the final cost estimates on the CF wing because we are thinking about adding CF layer as reinforcement if it is cost effective.

More updates will be posted soon! Thank you for your patience!

+1 would like to know the distance between mounting points.

Ok, put deposit down with Kevin today on the CF version for an FD. Just spent 1K on tires yesterday, what the hell, only money.

Glad to hear things are still rolling in positive directions!

An update would be appreciated. Please verify any progress with the FC mount fabrication and test fitment with pics.

Sorry about the late update:

We should receive the sample FD wing by the end of this week or latest early next week. Then mounting results will be posted. The FC mounting bracket template we got needs to be modified and redrawn in CAD since the dimensions won't work for this wing. So as soon as the tech guys at the machine shop finishes the brackets, we will be able to have the wing mounted on an FC car.

We apologize for the slow progress on these projects lately. A lot of things have changed due to the economy so we are trying our best to keep everything on track at the factory.
