Default Grand am spec CUP

I am going to transform my 2009 CUP to Grand am Specs,basically this mod consist in the CUP S front and rear wing.
A lot of parts are involved and with this I can use 10" front monoblock wheels.

Anyone has experience with this ?

Farnbacher-Loles has a lot of experience with that. It's cheaper than buying a new Grand Am spec car, comes out the same, and you can keep or sell the old parts you remove.

The Grand-Am has some internal engine mods, you need those to be at the front of the field. Also you can use some RSR suspension bits and need to put studs on your brake disks (no center lock wheels) and install a fuel cell. And much more...

good luck!

Are you planning on running grand-am? If not, just puting the S front end on is very straight forward. Getting all the parts together will be the most difficult part.

Maybe you could spring for a RL membership before you do all your mods
