I haven't tracked it yet, just highway and street driving. I'm pretty sure I can feel a good planted difference at speed and its not just in my mind lol. From the pic and their website, I think that it is solid inside and not hollow. As for standing on it....I can't bring myself to stand on it lol. I've seen the Aeromotions pic where its covered in 45lb weights and that is pretty impressive.

and since the other one also cracked the skin on my hatch, the enhanced mounting points:

I think the APR is hollow. If not, its definitely not reinforced like the aeromotions is.

EVOR · 05-11-2015, 08:42 PM

If it is not hollow, it will be so heavy. It is how it was made, makes it strong. If the center blades are just hand over lay carbon fiber, it won't be strong enough. Its got to be vacuum made or dry carbon made.

I was looking for you. What did you do to make that fit since apr doesn't sell a gtc 500 for us? What's it off of? Whats the specs like riser height and is it 70" wide?

Thanks mike! I know apt said they made a new one. I thought it was because of you and another. Maybe that's what fire Dan has.

FireDan50 · 05-12-2015, 06:27 AM

I bought and installed mine just a few months ago so I hope it is lol. I wish I knew about Aeromotions before though; at the time I only knew of APR, Kognition, and Ings.

It's way cheaper though.

glued with the same panel bond they use to attach roofs to cars and also bolted. They are 3/16" steel plates and about 54 square inches each to spread the downforce out.

It was custom from APR directly. I can go take measurements for you if you need it. Because they are one of my sponsors they made me this wing knowing I was going big on power and wanted to get as much clean air as possible. The wing is 72" wide and I think the riser height is 8"-10". I run the wing at 0* AoA at the moment.

May I ask how much?

Now I can't decide since this might be an option haha.
