However, on the other side of the trunk, that is not the case



The sheet metal is very thin and when you are making a lot of downforce, it will be prone to bending and/or shearing completely. However, we may make a tow hook that will mount here in the factory windows cut out in the diffuser:



The tow hook will also double as a mount for the wing that way you can leave the wing or remove it, leave the tow hook or remove it. It will be a heavier solution than we'd ideally like, but it gives you the option to revert everything back to factory with no visible holes or cuts. While it won't be nearly as large or as extreme as the Exotic Air car, to get an idea of what a wing looks like when it's mounted that low:
