I'm pretty sure I've seen the just jap one. and it looked very, very nice. my only small criticism of it is that as it's not dry carbon (like some of the japanese ones) it is quite heavy. but it's not a big deal really unless you are talking race car. in which case by a dry carbon one, but be prepared to pay a lot more than $450...

yer thats fair enough. Na its just for a bit of looks thats all. I have the carbon end caps on the spoiler so wanted a carbon blade. Not bothered about the heavyness of it. Not sure if i like the little lip it has on it.

Any one have any pics of it on a car??

Not being dry carbon etc, what do they wear like?? do they fade quick etc etc??

I had a dry carbon one on my 33 GTR. not being dry carbon wont affect the life. if anything they will keep their finish longer as they have lots of resin on them. the JJ ones look nice. the only benefit dry carbon has it's is lighter and stronger but looks wise many people prefer the wet carbon look.

here are some pics of my car with a dry carbon wing blade. sorry they aren't really good pics of the wing. but it's all I have handy.

nah, I don't think they require any special maintenance. obviously if you park your car outside they will fade over time (just like your paint will too). but if your car is garaged and washed regularly you shouldn't have any problems. :D

yes I think unique autosports sell them. and in fact I think the one I have seen came from them. it was very nice.

Dry carbon FTW

Why bother with dry carbon for a wing blade? The weight saving would only be around a kg and it the rigidity difference would also be negligible. The price difference would be extreme too.

    • Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.  
    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
