[QUOTE="ducatipaso, post: 8238995, member: 644396"] I will make sure to take pics, as for the aerodynamics I noticed a difference when I remove the wing-lets. I was looking at the rear wings on race Vipers, BMW and Ferrari's and the curve of the main area of the wing on some is very simpler to the curve on my wing - the structural difference is carbon fiber versus plastic. When I looked at the wing-lets on those wings they used rectangles wing-lets. Some times a perfect rectangle and others had a rectangle with the top line curved to match the contour of the wing & then the rest a rectangle positioned vertical to the horizontal wing. So when I compared the wing-lets used on race cars to the ones that came on my wing, the ones that came with mine were wrong, I suppose they were ricer style - the manufacture thought they looked sweet but the taste when driving was.sour. I purchased the wing as kind of a egg all rolled as a way to dip into the sauce and I figured I would spat out any parts I didn't like - particularly the side spates / wing-lets. With the general tso tapping I do when driving around town I noticed a difference in how the wing made the C70 feel and so I have some other aerodynamic mods planned. The C70 is a European convertible so I won't make it look salty, I'll make it look hot like a pepper becasue my aerodynamics are at steak, I'll take pic's so you can peel the pages back like an onion.
