Type II wing update

Ok, here's the deal with the Type II wings we are making. First of all, sorry about the lack of communication/delays, etc. Not quite as easy to get it made as we had first envisioned.

Anyways, the manufacturing company has possession of the wing now, along with a spare decklid from a Maxima to ensure fitment. But production will not being until May 1. They are swamped right now with other orders, etc. And obviously you don't want to rush them or else we'll end up with bad fitting wings like the original Stillen ones. The capacity will be about 10 wings per week, so supply shouldn't be a problem.

We have not set final pricing yet because we want to make sure of everything. But it will be very reasonable, not out to gouge anybody here. For pics of the wing, just do a search, almost all of you know what it looks like by now. And it will use the factory mounting holes, that's why they have the spare decklid.

And much thanks to Delio for putting up with this 6 month ordeal. Otherwise, it would have been an even longer wait.

I had my original spoiler stolen. I am wondering if this type II wing will fit over the existing holes??

I'm in 100% and will even prepay once you get the pricing. I want to get in on the first few batches that are produced. Waited so long but well worth it. Keep me updated. Thanks.

Shadow, are you having a custom wing manufactured for the Max that looks just like another already made wing? If so, would it not be better to have a wing design that is unique to only the Max drivers. The ricer guys always get the cool gear. Months and months later someone may made a desired piece us Max'ers and most of the time not at all. For one I love to tell one of those Honda boys "Yeah I know it looks great, but you can only get it for the Maxima." And them I could laugh in their face! I'm not even saying to toss the Wing II design, just add a cool some to the wing to make it unique. One thought is to make the LED lights housing clear with red LEDs. Or how about smaller lights on each ends of the wing. Just do something unique.

Just my donation of 2 cents.

The design he's using is a Max-only wing.

Guys, I'm still waiting to get info from the shop. It's coming soon. Pricing is set at $295 + shipping. But the first 10 wings will be sold at a discounted price as an intro sale. That price is yet to be determined, I'm working it out with some people right now. Thanks.

Contact me if you are planning on selling your stock one I would rather pimp the stock one since I think i rather keep it simple and have the stock wing... I'd buy it from you used, since you have no use for it lying around, sell it to me

Re: Re: type 2 wing

This wing is supposed to be a direct replacement for stock. It should bolt to the outside holes also.
