Is the installation something most people can do? Was there anything tricky about the install? Did the wing come pre-painted?

Where did you get the wing painted? How much for the wing and paint?

It looks very sick.

Thanks

to be honest, it looks a bit unbalanced.
time to offset it by upgrading the front bumper mods NEVER end.

Agree with Tom, need a chin splitter at least. This is esp true if you do any high speed driving/track in your car, as it will be unstable at speed with just a rear spoiler/wing. That's why porsche sells it in combo on an aerokit. Been there, done that, got the T shirt, don't want another!

Nice wing (love misha's wing), but I agree with Chris and Tom. It looks a little out of place with everything else stock.. time to mod that baby

Install is easy if you good mecanical aptitude and protect your car while working. As for paint, if you order one from any company it should come unpainted so you can have your local painter match it perfectly to your car.

Mods, mods, mods....... I already started on the inside with a new audio package with touch screen control and Sirius. Rod from Car Audio Innovations is making me a couple of sub woofer enclosure which should be in next week.

Clear bra

PSE installed but i want new tips

As for the side skirts..... That is next on the body list. So many choices....

But for sure wheels are next!!!!

The Misha wing looks like a cross between a GT3 wing and a GT2 wing. Would that wing fit on a GT3, just curious?
