Its definitely a very efficient design that you chose lol, unlike the more draggy typical race car designs. Ill be making a couple wings soon also, but not for the rear, for the front. Mine will be 2 relatively tiny wings 3"long x1" tall x the length of the front bumper inlet. they will be mounted inside the front bumper as far forward as possible. My goal is to ultimately delete the front splitter (or run a small 2in splitter) and run these wings instead. if that makes sense. splitters are a little too draggy for me. in for updates from your build!

Would love to see end results. You may get more interest that way!

I'll have updates in the next few days I promise! The wing is in fabrication right now.

I got busy making my own splitter and mounting it. I should show that one as well!

The wing is still in the works. I got a little side-tracked with my splitter project.

The endplate mounts and wing stand mounts are all done.





Ended up finding a super cheap APR wing on craiglist, so I bought it to salvage the mounts.



Right now the center section and wingstands are still at the shop to be molded in one piece. I measured the holes on the APR and positioned inserts into the mold at those same dimensions. So installation should be simple with the APR stands. As for the endplates, I got my desktop CNC just stiff enough to cut through sheetmetal, so I should just be able to carve some up. Since I only am making up, the company I'm working with doesn't have me that high up the priority list.

What wing are you expecting this to be similar in terms of downforce and of drag?
