My car's 1 year birthday gift: new carbon fiber wing!
 
She's been good for the year I've had her, so a reward was necessary.

Here's a quick side by side of the OEM vs. the new addition:

Took 15 mins to install once I got a Torx15 and cracked a beer.

Here's the stock wing:

New wing installed:

And my favorite shot so far:

It's exactly what I wanted. It's OEM+ with a classic ducktail vibe to it. Perfect!!

Now, time to win the final autocross round tomorrow and take home my class championship!! :D

If looks will help you win, you're half-way there. I like it.

Well...as for the race, what an EPIC end of the race season. I qualified top of class with 1:04.68, only to find 3 people quicker when timed sessions rolled around. A brand new Spyder (with 35 more hp than my stock CS) ran a class leading 1:04.10. On the very last run of the day I went for broke and pulled out a 1:03.59!!! Best in class, giving me the overall class championship and 4th best overall BRI out of about 100 entries!!!

Not only is the wing sexy, but it's undefeated. ;)

Sorry for the slow response. I'm out of town for a few weeks, congratulations. Undefeated is good. Did you immobilize that one or does it raise at 75? If it raises, I would love to see it in the up position.
