Also all Tommy Kaira stuff is quality. You get what you pay for with this product. If you're still skeptical about the quality, consider that Nissan enlisted his help to make a Tommy Kaira Edition R34 Skyline, and Autobacs built the ZZ1 and ZZ2 with him. Both those cars were hand built aluminum frames with a mid engine RB26DETT. Those cars were regularly seen around the Japanese Grand Touring Championship.

I'm most likely going with this wing as well. Just don't install it upside down like this guy:

Lol, ty for the pic, gives me a better idea what it will look like in red, yes i know that its orange in the pic lol

Edit: I think this was intentionally modified this way, if you look at the pics in my post it looks like the middle part would only fit one way, looks pretty stupid like that though lol

While I am not a "huge" fan of this wing, I do love the aero kit.

If you are concerned with Tommy's quality, don't be. When I lived in Japan, a friend of mine bought a burgundy Tommy Kaira R32GTR that was beyond awesome! Even though it was a over 10 years old, the body kit was holding up very nice with no faded paint, cracks, warping or anything. Great kits if you're willing to spend the cheddar on them!

Good to know, I'd hate to spend 2200$ on a wing that would crack somewhere in a couple years lol

I'm planning on a CF trunk with molded in duck tail spoiler. Like in the picture. Not really a fan of the CF look but I plan on painting it anyway.

I can't read it but the pics are there.

Wing is 5.7 pounds They had the exact size but the link is down

Finally finished translating it lol, keep in mind this is a direct translation from google/bing (used the results that made more sense) I also had to play with font sizes to get everything to fit, but this gives us a better general idea

I think this is the best wing out there. It's not to everyone's taste but I love it.
If you can afford it, GO FOR IT !!!

IMO, it looks great on the car, it doesn't look ricey/tacky or out of place, its not too low nor too high, I love the way it looks, it's fairly expensive but it changes the look of the car quite a bit

Razzle · 03-19-2013, 11:43 AM

I totally agree with you. It's sporty but with style
