Saw these in person this past weekend... These look fantastic!

I would definitely (read 100%) order a set of these if they fit the standard GT4 and were more or less at the same height as the factory GT4RS wing... Any chance you might make a version (or two - with OE and OE+3" heights) for the GT4 chassis?

Have you seen the carbon fiber ones by chance?

I am also not a fan of adding a splitter on the stock splitter. I much prefer a full replacement of the stock splitter if that makes sense.
Suggestions well received, front splitter is on our product pipeline, estimated release time is Q4 2024.

We are making the SR carbon fiber wing risers&Wings fit all 718/981 GT4s in a different way: a Dry carbon fiber Hatch (with lightweight hardcoating PC glass). It makes the entire top rear end full carbon fiber and saves around 18lbs from OE sets.(Hatch+Riser+Wing).

The angle of photos and lighting will show different textures. Below are more detail photos for our CF Wing risers:

A Dry Carbon Hatch sounds fantastic; however, how about simply making risers for the GT4 as you did for the GT4RS? Plenty of GT4 owners wanting to rock the RS wing with very few companies stepping up to the plate to fill this gap (I'm very pleased with my Automotive Passion risers and wing however a CF riser option would be fantastic). CF risers for the GT4 at both OE and +3" height that support the OE RS wing would sell. I know a few people already who would line get in line for these. The thread title says "input needed" that is my input

We have been extensively testing and upgrading our seat kit product recently, especially during the hot summer months. We have just developed a new version, Version 10.0, of this seat kit. Unlike previous versions which had a single level of softness, this new version consists of two distinct levels of softness within a single piece. Specifically, we have designed the top 30% of the surface that contacts the driver's back to be very soft, providing a comfortable "wrapping" feel. The remaining 70% of the surface at the rear is stiffer, intended to offer excellent lumbar support.

After driving with this new Version 10.0 for the past 2 weeks, we can confidently say that it is the best iteration of our seat kit that we have ever produced. We are eager to update our website with information about this improved V10 version in the very near future.

Yes. Since it is only for the back. The seat bottom is still OEM Padding.
