I know talking about body parts should go into the "Appearance" section but what I am asking for is more in the "Handling" department.
I am looking for a functional racing splitter and rear wing for my GT. When I say functional, i want it to actually improve my handling performance at higher speeds and throughout cornering. I have an overall concept of what I want my GT to look and perform like and this is one of those steps where I dont know where to go. I've seen a few wings that claim that they are funtional/adjustable but I want to see what you all think.. Keep in mind that I am not looking for just appearance here. It needs to improve handling performance!
Who said anything about hwy speeds? [sm=dontgetit.gif] I was asking about what products are out there that are functional, not when/where they are not functional.
Check with Steeda. They have a lot of functional aero parts, front splitters, cowl hoods, wings, etc..

Yeah, thier wing looks nice but thier splitters aren't adjustable. and looks alittle rolly polly for what I am wanting. I'll check the wing out again.. I'll have to see how funtional it is.. adjustability doesn't alway mean functionality. Maybe I am looking in the wrong places but there doesn't seem to be any commercially available race proven parts in this area. I am looking at this stuff for time trial competitions so it needs to perform. Astetics is always behind function, in my opinion.
I think this is one area where the "ricers" actually have the right idea. APR or other aluminum rear wings should be perfectly functional, nearly all are adjustable, and come in a miriad of design and winglet choices. They also use a basic sheet of aluminum, carbon fiber, or fiberglass as a front splitter with tie-rods for adjustability. You could make it yourself, or the parts can be found on eBay as universals, but made to fit and function just fine.
