for a customer I have to build a wing to meet the WEC and WC class rules . so if you want to see how they look you can google GT class wings .
because of this I need to make a mold for them .
because of the need to make the mold I will start also selling them to who ever wants one .
the 1st 1 to 3 will only be out of light weight fiberglass to dial in the molds .
after that they will be offered in CF .
mounting locations I can move around in the molds so spacing would be to your needs .
because of the width of the molds I can build the as wide or narrow as needed .
the cost of the 1st hand full will be pretty low materials only as they are tests and demo ones .
even for the 1st ones the quality is still going to be very good . but they are tests and will be in bare glass .
if your looking for single element wing maybe I can help you out ?

Re: rear wings
the GT class wings are like this .
I didn't feel posting a photo of a mold people would see the type of wing .
the mold is new so I have not pulled any wings yet .
because it's a new mold I'm molding 3 wings out of fiberglass only at 1st to make sure the molds are 100% with no flaws in the wings I'm molding .
the 3 Fiberglass ones I will be doing as a test are now taken .
one guy from the BMW club is taking one a guy from the Porsche club also wants one the even the one I was going to save is now taken .
instead of me just doing the tests and throwing them in the trash I though it would be good if some one want to pay for the materials they could have one of them .
because not all cars need to mount wings in the same ways I also needed to design different mountings points in the wings . so because of this too and the fact I can now move the mounting point any place they would need to be this too had /has to be tested .
also different end plates . the shape of the end plate has to do with the shape of the cars body and the way the air flows over the body .
end plates that you would use on a Porsche 996 will not be the same as on a BMW Z4 .
the FIA mandates the max size a wing can be in GT class . who ever the molds I made can do a wing up to 75" .
