Looks good. Glad to see that you are getting a chance to drive it. Any trips to the track or Mexico planned?

Where were these pictures taken?

taken are a local show. its held on monday nights. it was opening day. usually get 700-1000+ cars in one night.
no trips yet, still need to clean up the tune and make sure everything is good. just waiting for my tuner to have some time to fit me in. until then I'm just enjoying cruising and making some pulls on 14 psi

thanks, its from quick_z06 on here, its the Carbon S Design Wing. just held on with double sided tape but its been on the car for near 2 years and shows no signs of lifting... even after multiple trips to mexico.
