You would be better off with a wing engineered for taller stands than retrofitting a CR wing which was not designed/engineered for this.

That actually looks really good! If only if could re-use the trunk holes instead of having to drill new ones.

The way that guy did it looks nice. I' wouldn't mind drilling new holes as I have another trunk but I'd like more info on how he did his. Would be more even easier if all we need is a just a bolt on stand to raise the wing a little lol

I too have thought of this. There is some interest here for the aftermarket.

Someone would be able to design some stands that work with the CR trunk and CR wing but raising the wing just 2 inches or so.

Someone will say, Honda did it right from the start and I won't argue that but Honda also can't make the designs too extreme (too tall a wing) and turn people off either. People were turned off by the CR initially anyway.

I think you're exactly right...Uehara and his team had set parameters that they needed to engineer the car into. Be it from emissions, marketing, etc and I think they stretched the car as far as they were ALLOWED to go.

Time to buy your second trunk.

A new set of custom risers should work fine if the height adjustment is only 2 inches or so.

A custom shop would be able to fabricate risers with prior fit and function that directly mount to trunk and wing without any additional drilling. Although for a dedicated track car we have several great options, using the OEM spoiler mounted at a higher height might be a good option for some.

I might look into this since my wing spoiler is off my trunk at the moment.
