I set up SW2 Tuning with the intention of investing some of the profits we make back into developing small (for now) new parts for our cars. One thing I've always noticed about the carbon fiber wings that many owners put on their cars is how the stands look. Most race cars with wings have stands that are solid with no holes, yet these wings all have triangular cutouts, presumably to shed a few grams. While I'm certainly a proponent of shaving every last pound from a race car, one must also consider both the aerodynamics of the wing for the track and the looks of it on a streetcar. That's why I came up with the idea of producing some solid stands for the Voltex wings, likely in the same dimensions as the current popular risers but without any triangular cutouts.

Here's what I mean by the cutouts:



One wing I've always loved without any cutouts, the Amuse:



ASM also has no cutouts:



A stand without cutouts also looks amazing when color matched:




So, my questions for the community:
1) Would anyone be interested in these being produced?
2) Around what would you pay for them?
3) What sizing would you like to see?
4) What wings besides Voltex and possibly APR would you like to see compatibility with?

Thanks!

What I wanted to do was redo my apr stands so the wing doesn't sit as far back and uses holes for adjustment vs the rod. That isn't as easy as just a stand so I've been lazy

 

^++++++

 

I'd be interested in APR if adjustability was retained.

 

Would be nice because the APR wing just doesn't look nice compared to the J's/Voltex stuff. I I'd also like to see more of a one piece taller stand for that wing that doesn't angle it back so far.

 

I know there is a market for the apr but I haven't installed mine and with te apr wing design I am not sure which angle works which has to be the basis of the design

 

Too bad apr can't so their 200 wing with the same stands as the 300

The risers are pricy as is so might as well make a new design with the entire stand

 

I would be interested in better APR GTC 200 stands.

It's sounding like APR will be pursued first then

 

Definite interest! I was planning on doing something like this awhile from now after drooling over the ASM cars for years and years.
