Exclamation Strosek rear wing.

Hey guys

This is my first thread on this forum. I've been lurking around for a while and have seen some very good info on here, and it is finally time for me to ask a question.

Has anyone seen/installed one of these Strosek wings? I find it gives a nice sleek look but believe I'll have to leave it in the 'up' position at all times since there are no vents are on.

What do you think?

Yea you're right. I think a Ducktail would suit better.

Not sure how safe that would be for heat & as a spoiler.

I've never seen this product before.

I've seen this before. Strosek makes some interesting parts, but their quality isn't all that great. I've bought their parts before and I wasn't really impressed.

Thanks for the input, I've decided not to order it.

Another question (instead of starting another thread). Euro and NA bumpers are interchangeable, the only difference is the license plate tubs?

Thanks!

Nope. The Euro bumper doesn't have the bumperetts. Other then that they are the same.

A Euro bumper will look like this, but with license plate holes. You will need to also purchase the Euro turn signal lens.

Thanks for clarifying for the front, however my question was more for the rear.
I have a paranoia that 'Carrera's in Europe were also widebody, even though my gut says they are narrowbody as well.
I know the tow hook doesn't align, but aside from that as long as the width and exhausts line up all is good!

They are the same, again Euro bumpers do not have the bumperetts. So the license plate area is much bigger. Yes, there are NB & WB in Europe as well.
