My car's 1 year birthday gift: new carbon fiber wing!

She's been good for the year I've had her, so a reward was necessary.

Here's a quick side by side of the OEM vs. the new addition:


Took 15 mins to install once I got a Torx15 and cracked a beer.

Here's the stock wing:


New wing installed:


And my favorite shot so far:


It's exactly what I wanted. It's OEM+ with a classic ducktail vibe to it. Perfect!!

Now, time to win the final autocross round tomorrow and take home my class championship!!

That looks really good. I love the half carbon look, makes it look really OEM.

Thanks for all the compliments guys!

Shout out any pic requests and I'll try to snap them tomorrow. hg and diskreet, do you want the wing in the up position or down? Most prefer it up, I prefer it down to retain the ducktail look.

Yeah keep it down, or maybe do both. The ducktail looks awesome, and isn't too attention grabbing. Nice and discreet. Beautiful color on your Cayman as well.
