I think our parts are priced very well.

the only reason why we took on this project because I was told that aerofiber was the only supplier of this spoiler and no longer supplied to community. If I had known Evo-R had this wing and was readily available the the quality was satisfactory.. I would not have taken on the project. There are other projects to take on and no point in supplying the demand if someone is already doing it. Its too late at this point. Mold is already done. I am looking to offer a good quality piece at a reasonable price range. Not looking to go into a price war as we will probably lose. I can only focus on quality , service, and speed as we know the rx7 in and out. Feel free to purchase from whomever you wish. I will let you guys know when this project is complete.

I'm with you on this.

I have the first one out of the mold sitting in my office

. I want to improve it a bit before officially releasing it. I also need to make sure everything is to spec and all the hardware is located where it needs to be.

This one is in plain weave carbon fiber.

Were you able to incorporate this improvement to the center-section end-plates?

We kept the plates just like the original FEED wing.

I'm not exactly sure what Howard Coleman did... Here is a quote from his post.

"i ordered a 12 X 12 piece of mirror polished T6061 aluminum 1/8 inch thick, used the original endplates as an outline and redrilled 7 new holes."

my question is.. why not just keep the original plate and drill more holes if more adjustability is a concern?

drilling one more hole on that wing to make it sit flush.

the holes in the endplates on the two wings i had were so mis-aligned i elected to start from scratch. you are correct in that the original endplate (which i exactly duplicated in mirror aluminum) is quite capable of offering flat to max downforce. BTW, after 14 degrees you get much more drag than downforce pickup...

ah i see. If that is the case, I don't think we'll have a problem offering more holes. We just need to create a template to much sure everything aligns well.

The feed spolier does not cover all the stock holes. I believe it does not cover the inner holes, but the outer ones are covered.

Mine mounted up using the outer holes of the stock spoiler, like me-you'll have to plug or shave the inner holes. I have pics in my build thread in the N.W. section.
