Thoughts on Tommy Kaira FRP+Carbon Wing

So I will be acquiring my 6MT Firestorm FR-S in May or June, and I'm in love with the Tmmy Kaira FRP+Carbon Wing, it's a little pricy $1608+$200 shipping to canada and then most likely $300-$400 for install, but I really love the look of it and think it's one of the nicest wings for the twins.

Would just like to hear some thoughts/comments from other users, also I've never dealt with Tommy Kaira products so if anyone has anything to say about the quality it would be greatly appreciated.

Some pics : )

I love that wing as well as the Wald one. I was planning to buy it for a long time, but decided to go a different route.

I don't like it, but my opinion doesn't matter here. You obviously like it and are willing to pay for it. With that said, go for it man!

IMO the TK and similar R Magic wing are by a long shot the most visually appealing aero parts

just get it.
I have been obsessed with it since i saw the renderings back in august

it's not overly tall like the NUR wing and it's shape actually flows with the body lines and it doesn't look tacked on.

It would look great.

Now if i had a grand laying around, I would get the FRP

but hey... with a grand it's a tune... decisions decisions lol

it looks nice for sure, though when I get the money I will be installing this wing:

and it can be upgraded to have a DRS system.

Any idea how it's installed? Looks like the wing may come with bolts coming out of the bottom and we'd have to drill holes in the trunk
