Fix rear wing solution

So I got this kit, it lost me 12 lbs from the rear of the car, and I have the wing in the fix up position. No more dealing with leaky hydralics, and where i got it they said they are willing to sell my longer studs/bolts to raise the wing higher. I'm thinking maybe getting some gt3rs height for downforce at the track. As they are easy to install. Best thing, it looks 100% oem.

I saw this earlier today and this is an ingenious design that Enrique has developed.

The ability to raise or lower the wing easily adds to the flexibility.

Very cool Enrique!

GO SHARKS!

Guy's just to make it clear. I do not sell the kit. Check the nonsponsor thread. I posted the person who worked with me in making these for me. It was my idea, in order to shave weight from the car and preventing to buy hydralics if mine broke.

Enrique, I went to the non-sponsor thread and the link wouldn't work for me. Would you mind PM-ing me with the price and contact info so I can get a couple of these struts for the rear wing. Thanks.

Enrique, great solution. Would like to see what a GT3RS wing height would look like too. Whomever is making this should contact bumperplugs.com to make some sort of an insert/sleeve to fill in the wells on the bottom to finish off the look IMO.

Yes, we plan to do gt3rs height and also the same shape of the gt3rs using the stock holes. We also already thought about making a plug to keep it looking like a ductail wing. All that is on the works he's a small place so one step at a time lads. He dosen't have the budget a lot of the vendors here have
