One of the holes is actually the OEM wing hole. So it's already indented. Not sure if they give you a template for the second hole though.

What other questions do you have. I should be able to answer them. Or, if you are looking where to buy it, just put them up.

Full height mounts go in the same location as what you see in the pictures, just taller.

Here's another shot for the wing from the rear.

For most tracks, the universal GTC-200 is fine. The problem comes from folks not mounting their wing far enough back on the trunklid. There shouldn't even be a finger's width of space between the vertical edge of the trunklid and the "pads." I have hit over 130mph with the AOA very high session after session- no creasing. That is not to say that there isn't any flexing occurring.

Conversely, the drawback to the wider mounts is increased drag caused by the stands. How measureable? I have no clue and promise you that I'm most likely not a consistent enough driver to ever tell the difference.

FWIW, I have the GTC-200 with the low-mount stands. They actually need to be about 5" higher.

btw, here's a pic of the bodyshop testfitting the stuff.
Too far forward. This is what I'm talking about. In order to pplace it rearward far enough, you will have to dremel existing opening in the trunklid.

Hopefully these show just how far back you can mount the wing. The vertical edge increases the lids rigidity at that point greatly over the placement of TestaRossa's.
