while i am liking where this is going, i wanted to share what idea i was originally thinking when i desired a duckbill style add-on.

imagine something very small and thin, sort of like the stock 350z wing... i am imagining an add-on that is around 1.5 - 2.0" in overall front to back length, maybe an inch or maybe even less in overall height at its tallest spot, and the left/right tips tapering down almost flat without curving forward at all.

so basically no wrap around at all, just a well blended extension that really never exceeds the factory wings boundaries except in the duckbill areas height and of course sticking back out a little more around the tall area.

now i have no idea if what i just typed really makes sense to other people, i am not the best at describing shapes LOL. but if it at all makes sense, i do wonder if it would work in terms of looks, and i bet it would be a very simple product to manufacture compared to a wrap around product that had many many factory lines to match up with rather than just one surface of contact.

anyhow i apologize for steering away from the topic at hand, just wanted to share if i make any sense at all.

I was thinking the same thing, just a small carbon add-on that runs along the edge of the stock wing. They make this exact part for the EVO x/rallart, I'll find the pic....

However, that is not to say that I am uninterested in the current product being developed, I just cant help but wonder if a much more simple shape might meet the goal of those wanting this style?

Sticks too far out from those pictures...maybe it looks better in person, but looks like it wasnt made for this car..toooooo much. If you shortened it and made it look like an extension then it would look great... or fill the gap underneath somehow...no no for me..
