after how long.. my wing is having a problem... when it gets a little warm out, I guess the ABS plastic deforms... it bows up and the tape in the middle of the upper half doesnt hold it down... but when it gets cool out it looks perfectly fine but the tape still doesn't hold. When I'm on the free way i guess the cool air flowing over it cools it enough to where it sits back down on the base of the wing again...

I thought this wing wasn't supposed to deform...

ill take pics when i have time

its not loose... all the bolts holding down the base it fine.. none of the bolts that hold the upper wing down are loose but the middle bow'd up enough to where it doesnt make contact with the base or the tape... and then when it cools down it sits back down... I don't know what going to happen when I move down to SoCal in 2 weeks.

What i think is when bodyshop paint the wing, they filled the little hole on the top tip of the wing. Those holes (L/R) allows air flow in and out inside the wing. Cuz when it is closed up air inside will expand, cause the wing to blow up. Original Nismo wing is also designed this way. This is why we have those holes also. Please check make sure. Thanks.

Is the Carbon one same dimensions as a OEM Nismo wing or same as the regular EvoR high wing?

It looks to be the exact same as the Highwing.

Looks like just the top from the pics. The beige color is the unpainted part that needs paint, just like the regular one.

Evo-r customer service kinda sucks. I really afraid of buying stuff from them and get no response whatsoever
