#9023, "anyone done a custome 1pc wing?"


          

So I got bored over the weekend while working on my system and decided to mold the wing into one peice. I hope to have pics in like 2 weeks but I want to know if anybody has ever done anything like this? It looks good so far imo.

P.S. I am realy tired so I cannot spell correctly tonight emoji

Huh? Did you mold your stock 3 piece wing into one piece? I'm assuming that you unbolted the end pieces then, so you can still open your trunk? Be careful because it will crack easily. Not sure how you molded it though? Any info?

Well i am just messing around with it right now. I unbolted the side so it lifts as one big wing. I also had to take of the mounting brackets the sides used to bolt too off so it would shut again. I am using fiberglass and am going alittle heavy on the reson so it is a little more flexible. I am hoping it will not crack but it probably will. It is currently entirly off the car so I can sand it. Like I said I hope it will be done in 2 weeks manly because I can't even work on it till next saturday (in collage and nowhere to work at) I will post pics as soon as possible. Sorry that is so long any questions just ask.

Oh ok, that's what I thought you did...but fiberglass will not bond well to the plastic that the wing is made of, so you have to be really careful. I'm 90% sure if will eventually crack on you unless you can find a way to bond it really good...good luck
