I love this wing. The only thing that somewhat bothers me is that it continues all the way up to the glass. I think if it stopped where the carsmo or TRD lip ended it would be better. Other than that I love it

X2 on that. I don't think it should continue all the way to the glass...

The problem of having it end sooner is the amount of contact surface! This wing needs as much surface as possible to mount on. Lets see how it turns out and perhaps do some minor tweaks on that.

I understand why you need the most contact surface, but is there a reason why you added a peak and essentially another body line where it meets at the window? I'm assuming for reinforcement, but just wondering. BTW, been following the kit for a while and can't wait to have it on my car. Any estimated release date?

I think if you wanted to get rid of the pieces on top of the trunk the kit would have to be changed and require drilling. Most people seem to want to avoid that. I was thinking about getting a second truck to swap back and forth to stay in STX, so personally I don't car how it attaches
