Looks like the OP abandoned the thread. I wonder if he realized that someone actually did try to rip the wing off, or if he realized that they mounted it wrong.

From the op pics it looks like the wing was mounted properly. My GTC-200 is mounted in the same spot with only two bolts per side. His extreme speed + big ass wing set to minimal downforce most likely caused the damage to the trunk.
