Can we see a pic of the whole car with the wing, sort of a distant shot? Can't really tell if this is the wing I want until I can see the whole car. Thanks

glad you posted that for some people. Looks like DC just copied the type r one, and didn't take in to the fact that it needs to be shaved down so it will sit flush with the glass...which it doesn't appear to be doing on your car.

subliminal, did you opt for wings west to paint your spoiler? i think i might order this one up next week. oh, and how long did it take you to get yours in? (eta - order to arrival) i talked to sylvester over at wings west and he said that i could have one within two weeks of order placement. how was your overall experience with them.

Well i didnt get it direct from wings west. I got it from that new vender here for 209 shipped, took around a week. Came unpainted, took around 2 hours i guess to put on(body shop did it) also a few days to paint it..here are 2 more pics at a distance

i think im gonna go ahead and order it from them, cuz i dont have a body shop around here that i trust to do it. i think it will save me a little money too. BTW, it looks good on your rig.

so does the wings west wing need to be modified just like the OEM type R wing in order to fit correctly? from the looks of it, it doesn't seem to sit flush on the back.

How hard was it to wire up the brake light?

I didnt install it so i cant say how hard it is to do. But it didnt look to hard from the insturctions. There wasnt any modification to mine either

The wing itself looks great - just like the CTR. I'm not digging the big "W" though...stands out too much IMO :(

I like it. The "W" lets the players know what you are puttin' out!

How well could u see the OEM break light with the wing on.... i noticed that yours is tinted and could still make it out.......for the rest of us who dont have tints....i mean it would look stupid if the OEM break light would stands out like that...... thanks...

Im not sure really what it would look like..i think mine still lights up but id bet that you can just take it off. Plus since the wing is long it covers it up
