What Kevin PM me earlier...I hope this is alright to post here.

$50 discount for wings sold without mounts. Retail prices of the wing is $750 (FRP) and $1000 (CF). RX7Club members can get a limited time exclusive discount of 10%. So for orders without mounts, the prices are $625 (FRP) and $850 (CF)

Shipping is $75 to all continental US addresses.

By the way, I don't want wing mounts with my wing thanks.

Still unemployed, but I was able to sell off my remaining stocks. I would like to update my shipping address (if I even gave you one), and submit my final payment. Any updates on the FC test fit?

Got my wing, questions on mounting

Gang, I got my wing, all intact. Aside from a couple of small blems in the resin finish on one of the wing end plates, it's perfect. Hell, it's going on a race car so who cares, right? I give it 99/100 so far.

Thank you Kevin for filling this niche market.

Now I am thinking about the mounting process. Near as I can tell based on a quick review on the mounts, the brackets are to be connected to the hatch by only two small machine thread screws each, probably #6 Fine in size. That seems very small to me, and the stress on the sheet metal, esp if the wing is bumped from the side (force comes on the end plate, on the same line as the wing), seems like it could be very concentracted and the metal could tear. if the force comes perpendicular to the wing (leading or trailing edge), then the brackets would distribute the force along their entire length and that wouldn't be as bad, but the screws themselves still seem small.....

Am I missing something? Is the stress that the wing is under at 145mph not that great? Are others making mounting plates?

Advice/input welcome.

Got the wing! Everything but the wing mounts look awesome. The fiberglass mounting plates are little wavy! But no worries, I will be removing them and making new one's that are spaced to 1210 mm.
