I have an 86E.

Well I was looking a little at body kits because I'm about to repaint my car anyway and need to do all the dressing up I'm going to do now before the paint job gets done. The only reason I'm doing ANYTHING to the exterior is so my fiancee will love my car enough so that she will never want me to sell it Yes even Marines are no match for the wife.......

Anyway if any of you have pics of this thing installed I'd like so see them because she say it and said "that would look good" so I want to see what it would look like installed before I buy it and decide I hate it.

Thanks for your time. It's the C4R wing from C5 West. If I could have a few different angles it would be greatly appreciated.

DON'T DO IT!!!!!!!

Wings on a C4 had better be mounted to the frame, and not to the body. They will collapse the soft poly material that is the rear bumper cover, or, if they really generate downforce, crack up the SMC that is the body work.

C5 West has a less than stellar reputation for QC, too.

If you want a wing, get the Greenwood.

That is a greenwood type wing just not the usual one. (i think)
If you go at a website like ecklers they have that wing along with the c4r bodykit Search c4r kit

One question: What does semper fi mean? I heard it a couple of times but i forgot what it means

The Mid America catalog also show different kinds of wings and what they look like on the rear of a C4.

Steer clear of C5 West. Trash.

Nothing could improve the exterior of your ‘vette like a mounted MK19 so that your girl could stand on the passenger seat and put some rounds on target. Of course nothing says high-speed low-profile like a Corvette. If you added the AN/TVS-5 then she could reach out to 2,000 meters day or night with those 40mm whenever she needed to break things or kill people.



Or you could add this wherever you think it would fit in your color scheme

Yeah I was kind of wondering about how stable it would be considering the body is fiberglass. I didn't want it but now I have a better reason to tell her that it's not a good idea.

I think the guys covered the Semper Fi comment.

Oh there is NO WAY I would mount a MK19 to my car but I think a M240G would look just fine with her hanging out the targa like I did in the turret in iraq.

Thanks for the help guys.

When my 84 was first bought it came with a wing, there were stress cracks all around where it was bolted down and seemed wobbly, not worth the hassle.
