well if you look...it's actually a full spoiler, not just an add on. It's much more square than stock.

I dont know if it's adjustable, but certainly looks it.

.....in the process of correcting minor details, before taking it to the fabricator's. Attention to details pays dividends in the final product. We want to make sure this looks and fits perfect before releasing it.

Cool beans. Thought it was worth it to post this to the top. You should repost the pics from earlier in the thread just to show latecomers what is in store...

Joel that's one SENSUOUS Wing

As this is still a prototype I don't think Joel or Sid will leave those lovely "Dry Wall" screws for a sell-able product. Some nice S/S Hex Bolts would be in order....
