CFTP Wing

[Jmeo]

That looks like it sits higher than stock CFTP, did you change the uprights? Looks really good like that!

edit: just noticed you can see the bolts on the winglets, is this an aftermarket wing?

He has a Real GT4 wing, not the one that comes on the CFTP.

This is amazing. Pardon me for I’m but a mere GT peasant but do they make this for the regular GTs (not sure if trunk is different)

All S550 decklids are the same aside from the surface of the decklid where there may or may not be a spoiler or wing. As such, some have mounting holes and some do not.

Here's a side by side with the CFTP wing on the left and a GT4 car and wing on the right. The factory wing was modeled after the GT4 wing but at a reduced height via shorter uprights and less adjustment for AOA. The side plates have a wide range of adjustment to match any AOA changes.

Finally! Fantastic pricing to boot. The car in the photos is the one I thought had an Anderson prototype on it. The dogbones look an awful lot lot like the ones Shiftek is selling. Wonder who is actually making those...

I'd be calling right away as these should move rather quickly. Gonna be a line.

Yup. My order is in.

Funny AC has it for $2859 and Lethal has it for $2573.10, odd how a 3rd party has it for less than the mfg. But hey at least there is an alternative finally for others who want it.

I am always amazed at how expensive these things are. I've done a fair bit of vacuum forming and seeing these makes me want to quit my day job and tool up for some CF work.

I even have a three-phase vacuum pump.

Their site says Anderson Composites makes them.
I ordered one as well.

Ordered one too. Number 1 on the list. Fabian at Lethal took my order and I asked him for an availability date and he called Anderson while I held on the line. Anderson says early January they should be shipping. Upright scan is the plan!

#2 here. Thanks for the heads up.

Function Factory has also completed their build and is already sold out on their pre-orders.

Is theirs through Anderson or are they on their own or with MPR or ....?

Note from Lethal: “Hello, Anderson Composites reached out to let us know this item is out of stock with an estimated availability in 16-20 weeks. Please let us know if you need to make any changes to your order.”

Oh well. Nothing has changed.

I went on Anderson's site and saw that I could leave an email for notification as to when the wing became available. I figured that maybe I might hear from them in January some time when they are actually ready to ship. They sent me this auto generated email which sounds like what Don heard from Lethal...

I just hope January doesn't turn into March, then July, then December of 2022...

The told me January this morning as well. Then I received the email about at 2:30 CDT with the comment noted…
