Techart Style Carbon Wing - A beauty

I just got this thing in today (thanks John). The blade is absolutely perfect. no flaws at all and I looked hard. It is also very light. For anyone who does not want to change out their stock hood, this is a great option. I'll post pics when I get mine on.

here is a link to it: http://www.speedtechexhausts.com/page24.html

Yes, it is the spacer issue? John_D came up with a solution for it. He had the same issue with his and fixed it, he sent me the spacers to install.

great looking, go back to TechArt aka CEC for the USA, they are very helpful, on my GT Street I lost one of the plastic blades on the rear bumper, they sent me a whole set for free incl. a model car of a TechArt GT Street

There rare and don't advertise them really anywhere. I picked up a used one luckily. you can find the GT2 version but I haven't seen this particular style for sometime now.

when it is installed, the wing will sit on the decklid and ultimately scratch it. I bought a wing from JohnD and mentioned it to John. He mentioned that you can heat it up and bend it to see if that will help. My body guy came up with the idea of putting a spacer (between the base of the wing and the adaptor) and I mentioned this to John. He ended up making the spacers out of plastic and sent me a couple. If you do not use these spaces (I had to use six - three on each hydraulic), the wing will sit on your decklid

That might explain why this one had scratches in the middle on the bottom, lol. So John made some nice plastic spacers up for you...I wonder if he has more. I'm sending him a link to this now.
