Well, It is direct bolt on. I know that diffusers are gonna be in aluminum but not sure about the wings.. gotta ask the owner. those parts aren't gonna be cheap for sure tho.. especially if its gonna be shipped out from korea, ++$$$..

The aluminum diffuser. I heard those will be in carbons too
anyways, as i stated previously, that those won't be for everyone due to the very sensitive subject, price. $1200 ish for the wing only.. and according to the owner, the company who made the stuffs won't run small numbers either... Too good to be true huh?

I mean, most of the stuffs from over sees will cost as much though.. Anyways, If I had R56, i would still want em.. lets hope that the OEM challenge wings to be cheaper if it becomes available, or maybe someone in the Us could do something..

I would spend 1200 for the wing kit, where do I send the fund ??

OEM Challenge wing is not available to the public, only the racing teams that have purchased the cars. Already looked into it. Now if someone knows a team with a car, they can purchase the wings and possible make them available to us .....

Probably just as easy as walking into your local dealer with a GP vin number and ordering GP parts, right? I highly doubt that would be a viable option, unfortunately.

I'd be interested, but it'd be too hard to get it to Australia. I know someone who is racing in the Mini Challenge so i will see if i can get a real one from him. I think the Challenge cars have Carbon Fibre though. Same with the undercar rear diffuser.

Just to let people know apparently this guy in Korea wants an order of 30 wings in order to put them into production. It's a long shot but everyone who wants one let's post here and see if we can get to 30. And hey if we do get to 30 we may be able to bring the price down per unit, you never know.

1. Me.
2. .........

No, not to my knowledge unfortunately. If it did we'd hit 30 in no time.
