Don't quote me on this, but I'm pretty sure you could. I have 10mm spacers out front, but there was clearance even without them.

Is that Lapis Blue? And the wing doesn't look like a taco--what kind is it?
It's a GT2 wing and the color is Ocean Blue Metallic. Wouldn't mind a taco though!

Thanks! I'll post more pictures in a few. The aero front bumper is an OEM part from Rose Passion (France). If you search the forum a few other people have purchased from them with positive reviews. It's excellent quality and made of polyurethane, has a part number stamped on it.

I was looking at the actual rim fitting over that combo, the do make a high disk option but I don't know what the measurement of the 380mm + caliper is across.

Here’s a few new spring photos, glad to finally get the car out of the garage and enjoy it up north here!

@escreation Is that an aftermarket rear decklid? I ask because it appears to have a more pronounced (larger) upper adjustable wing. Could also be my eyes playing tricks on me with the photos. Your car looks unbelievable- very nice

Your eyes are perfectly ok 😄 Carbon wing insert is from Cargraphic. Thank you for all the nice words

I was there on Sunday and watched you guys pull in. What exhaust do you have on your car? Sounded good.

Looks unbelievable! Thanks for the additional photo. Noticed it on the Cargraphic site. Now how can we source one of these? My guess is there will be little luck. That’s such a clean OEM plus look for the taco

Would be cool to see @Rennline offer a version of this wing. I see they have the carbon mirrors available now. Limited market but I’d have interest.

@NYPOWR4 we might get into a bidding war, because I’d gladly also take the upper wing insert if he ever decided to part with it!

Yeah cargraphic has the fiberglass version but I want the carbon because of all of my carbon bits already on my car
I and I really do mean name your price I’m ready
I suggested it to rennline to make them in carbon but no response I’d buy 3 just to get it started

Thanks. It has Fister mufflers and FVD cat deletes. Good turnout there.

@NYPOWR4 It does show a part number for the carbon wing insert on Cargraphic’s main site. Don’t know what kind of luck one of the distributors would have in getting it to the US. I too wish Rennline would get into the Carbon Top wing, among many other things. Hopefully down the road we will see them start pushing out some additional items

The guys at Cargraphic are pretty good at answering emails, they sent me a whole parts list and prices for some items I requested.
