gt3rs wing end plate reversed
Got these wing end plates because edges are rounded and have a more stock look about them - "but officer, it came from the factory like this."
Might machine wingstays that move the wing forward similar to techart GT style. As of now the ends of the wings stick out over and beyond the rear corners of the car, which is illegal here.
put them on the way they come installed on factory GT3RS cars but didn't like how it looked (like an arrow pointed fwd, bottom edge flared out away from car). Reversed left to right so the bottom edge of wing plates fins flared towards the car, which was a bit better. Then tried it this way and IMO liked how it looked, best. From an aero POV, Not too sure of effects. Not tracking this car anyways.
The way the bolts align, these end plates fit which ever which way they're bolted on, completely covering the wing ends.

thanks, HRE P43 in flat blk - on yokohama ad08 neova tires (235/295). FYI the set is significantly heavier than stock (twist wheels/pzero tires) which is a bummer. May be it's the difference in tire weights. would have thought the forged HREs rim only would be same or less than the hollow spoke turbo twists. Orig wanted to go 18s, but wouldnt clear the brakes.
thanks, me too!
yea that's what i was thinking, must say i do feel the difference on the highway; with this thing on versus past couple weeks with the deck lid only.
yea i like my cars to look like shopping carts on and off the track =)
yes I agree... could be bigger

Actually even the RS plates aren't great, but since he's not tracking it really is moot.
Looks like the aeromotions wing.

Moot means it doesn't matter and has no application to your usage of the wing. If you were on a track, that could have serious ramifications to your cars handling, especially in windy conditions. Aero dynamics are very sensitive.
But since you aren't driving on the track and not taking corners at the limit of adhesion, it wont affect you, (thereby moot).
