I installed my new rear wing this weekend. It's an Agency Power type II carbon fiber wing which I purchased from Vivid Racing in AZ. The wing has some "blemishes" which are mostly confined to the underside, otherwise it's in great shape and the fitment turned out to be pretty good too! Oh, they gave it to me at half price.....I was very happy about that!!









I was considering the GT2 type wing but this seems to suit this car better. I think the GT2 wing belongs...on a GT2...just my opinion!

Anyway, as others have stated a rather negative view of the Agency Power products and of Vivid Racing in general, I must say that I've had the opposite experience....I'm happy with my purchase experience especially one that involved buying this wing basically sight-unseen....and the price! Can't complain one bit! They also did just a fantastic job at packaging such a large, fragile item! So kudos to Vivid Racing!!

Cheers!

Does this wing attach to the hydraulic cylinders? If so, a picture raised would be nice.

that's what I'm wondering. Not a big fan of the taco wings.

What can I say....I love the retro look! Actually my dream car way back when was a GR 930, so this is as close as I'll get!!

Actually Jared, it's not GR...it's a metallic red wrap...

As requested, here are some pics with the wing in it's raised position:
















Actually, it looks pretty good by these pics I must say. If anything the original raised wing looks more like a taco....or clam (don't say bearded clam 'cause that's a whole other topic..lol!)

Cheers!

I purchased both the front lip and rear diffuser from AP. Zero issues. Perfect fit and finish, I like that wing. That’s next.
