thanks a lot. nice car also. I like how everything is powder coated black.
actually they are more of a brush silver than grey. and its super easy to take them off. they are stuck on there with adhesive. just take a pick or something small enough to pry it off, then just gently pull up on it.

heres what the noblesse wing looks like




and i say fwd cars are ricey with big wings because it doesnt serve much of a purpose. the wing is made to push the rear of the car down with windforce to keep traction and since there is no power going to the rear of a fwd car, traction on the rear isnt and issue and the wing is pretty much pointless.

While ill agree with you about big wings on street cars look silly, the point of them isnt to put weight on the rear for acceleration traction, so the fwd/rwd issue doesnt have much to do with it.

Only drag cars use the wings for drive traction.

Yes the wing is to put additional downforce or in most cases reduce the amount of lift the car produces to aid traction, however its only one part of the aero package which should also include a front spliter and rear diffuser. these pieces combined should be balanced to improve the overall highspeed stabilty of the car.

Specifically the fit, both the J's car and the Noblesse car who have done very well on track with the car, use rear wings for a reason. Take a look at any of the speed world challenge cars, they all use rear wings, including the very sucessful Realtime TSX(FWD) and the tripoint mazda 6(FWD)




on topic: noblesse wing is cool, something different:thumbup:
