Misha Ducktail and GT3 Tek lip......

Finally got around to getting my ducktail and lip installed. Both are DIY installs the lip is simple but two people make it easier. The wing took about 1.5hrs most of that time was disassembling the pop up spoiler.

I can feel a difference in down force front and rear and I think it looks kick *** which was my main purpose anyway!

very nice, I'm thinking of doing the same thing up front. our stock bumper just sit too high without the lip. Is it just held together with double sides tape?

Yes dbl sided 3m tape and a primer which allows a very strong bond. It also has 5 screws, 3 underneath the bumper in the middle area and 1 on each wheel well. As well as the tape stuck you could probably get away without the screws.

If you do a youtube search there is an install video which shows you how easy it goes on. The fit is spot on, very snug no gaps at all. They do ship it folded so I allowed about 1 week laying out flat with some weight on the folds to take the memory out of it.

Here's another photo more from the front so you can see the lip better.

that's what I don't like about GT3Tek, they fold it to get cheaper shipping rate. Sometimes it never go back to shape right. The car look so much better with the lip on.

I was a little surprised myself. However after setting it on a flat hard surface with some heavy weight right at the spots it was fine. I am sure if you are willing to pay more for shipping they would ship it without folding.

I think this car would look a lot better if the rims were painted all silver. I like the lip, but the ducktail not as much due to the bull nose vents.

Not bad though.
