**This thread is for GT wing only (Ings+1, APR, Kognition, shine.....)

Not many member choose GT wings to go with their daily drive, I just want to know why.

At first i really want to go with Ings+1 Gt wings but the 2400$ price + 4 months waiting from Japan has prevented me. So i go with APR performance. Half the price, Arrived in 2 weeks. Honestly the look is AWESOME, in some way look more than agressive the INGS wing, but it stand so HIGH and CAUGHT TOO MUCH attention.

I missed the Ings+1 again cause it look many way for daily driving, not too much agressive, and also it look smaller than the APR.

I will take newer picture of my car when i finish the amuse kit. On daily i have to take the wing OFF. The wing have to live a Sneaky life on weekend (cause i dont want trouble with police, If i get caught, it will be violations for both modified exhaust and Wings )

Because these are street cars, not GT cars.

I like the look as well, but there is absolutely no benefit to putting a massive wing like that if the car never spends time on a track. I'll give a pass if the car is a show car. Those are usually kitted to the max.

Voltex GT Type 3 with low mounts 1300mm wide. Not big and obnoxious, and flows well with the body lines of the Z

The wing is Voltex, the deck is from Ings+1. there is no way to that combination unless you pay for 2 wings . Look like they are in japan, so more option to choose these.

When i heard i price of both, . i plan to get it at first, but the price

warning for what? whats the revised code they used? theres no law on something that doesnt obstruct your view. and if theres a law for having your view obstructed, how do semi's and vans with no back windows get away with it? you just got a cop that hates ricers plan and simple.

At the moment, that's why I love Florida. The cops don't seem to care about straight pipes, or crazy wings. Plus, no emissions testing.

The wing isn't a problem in Florida, I work right next to the sheriffs office and none of them have said anything about it. The GTC-300 doesn't block your view, the mirror looks under it so all you see are the uprights.
