I think we should probably see the finished product before we start pointing out flaws.. The wing might be a lot smaller than it looks in the picture.. Once it's on the car, it might look a lot different also.. And I think we all know, pictures don't do detailed work justice..

Right on. Early stages never look porportioned right, especialy in a picture. People were saying the same thing about the cowl hood when I posted early mold pics. I would refrain judgement until its completed. Props to CF1 for taking the intiative.

yes props for CF1 for taking the initiative to make 1...but...the props get takin away b/c they didnt take contour owners opinions into consideration. The goal was to make a trunk/wing that would be received very well which ultimatly would make them $ while making happy customers. Instead they made a trunk/wing that doesn't flow very well and as you can see not too many like it. It is crucial in the design phase to do research on what ppl like and what style is in demand. Aparently this step was skipped and the homework was not done. I do belive CF1 could produce an amazing looking trunk/wing if a "a little here a lot there" was taken off but considering how many ppl love the pre98 lip soiler, they would be kicking themsevles if they didnt do a type of molded in replica such as that. But most importantly they need something that FLOWS w/ the lines of the car in any wing they make.
If i owned that company I would fire all the design staff for not listening to what ppl want. In todays world you have to look at supply and demand. You can't just design something on a whim b/c thats the style YOU want to do. Bad move. But if their cards are played right they can turn this around and come up w/ a kick azz trunk

NOTHING is functional until your going 120 or so. The only way to have a wing actualy make a signifacant impact on downforce at low speed, it would have to be an f1 wing. even then i doubt they make huge amounts of d/f and 70mph.

i like it...only i'll take one in fiber glass, with a white tour and black cf hood & trunk lid,plus black wheels it might make the tour look like a used police cruiser
