Title: FC GT Wings
Post by: C-Rex on November 13, 2010, 01:08:07 AM
Anyone have links of GT Wings that can be for FCs
 
Looking for something pretty high and wide to suit mine, new or second hand wouldnt bother me but would prefer FC specific ones if they are gonna be a few hundred quid..
 
Any help appreciated lads..

A few are available on the used parts market here in Japan if you\'re interested:

Neils red starry FC has the best BGW i\'ve seen on an FC.

The mounts go along the side of the rear hatch which looks much better than whacking them in the middle!

agreed :)
but i think the re-a style ones are prob better as they are more stable.
Mine wobbles like jelly as no fixed solid mounts to prevent it from wobbling.
Only the top 2 brackets holds it from swaying side to side, would be better to have custom stays and not attach like mine.

Well i bought the 57 inch carbon look on ebay 120 pounds.

This is how it sits with the bracket it provides with some modification on the rear part of the stand and the plate on the top to gain the angle i want without touching the boot when i open it.

With the mod it sits very strong and solid compare to my friend\'s R34 GT wing, hardly any movement when you shake it.

It looks very 3D IMO. tested the downforce by holding it on a windy day XD works well.

Hope the info helps :)
