APR makes wings that look somewhat like that. I'm not gonna endorse them (or any wing), though ... www.aprperformance.com (isn't that URL an oxymoron?)

Oh hell no APC.

C-West has both the CF wing and a cheaper Aluminum GT wing.

FEED- has a GT wing that is actually made by ARC Japan. It's around 900 or so.

Corvis Japan- Makes a aluminum GT wing that is distributed by Mackin Industres. The same company that handles Volk Racing, Tanabe and Koito. They have different sizes. I think the widest one is like 5-600 bucks.

the one in the pic you posted is the Veilside GT Wing. i personally think this one is the best looking GT wing out there. all others are way too high. the Veilside one is only $690 too, compared to all the other $1.5K+ GT wings.

best looking and most affordable...Veilside is the way to go.

They are Volk LE37s. 18X8.5 front and 18X9.5 rear. I got a partial sponsorship for them. I'm not sure the list price per wheel. Try a search for Volk distributors or contact Mackin Industries for the nearest distributor to you.

your best bet for the wheels would be to try Rishie. His nick on the boards is ARDT2. Post over there in "wheels, tires, suspension" and he will get back to you, or search for his nick using the search function and you will be able to get his number.

I say you get the Veilside CF GT wing very functional and it is like $690 or so at www.rxecret7.com for the wing and it is not as high compares to other wing out there on the market.

It's the full C-West kit, but with the Veilside wing.

Veilside ... very true. I forgot about that one. When he said he wasn't paying a grand for a wing I threw all of the real Japanese wings out the window ... and at 4 in the morning the Veilside just didn't come to mind! And someone mentioned Corvis, which is also a decent quality affordable alternative.
