Rear Wings?

I've got a 91T that I'm transforming into a purpose built track car, only problem is I have no idea where to find a functional rear wing. Does anyone have a link or know a couple of sites that have them? If so that would be awesome! Thanks

I must say though excellent choice. Its a shame they don't fabricate replica's at a more reasonable price. I'm still getting that wing once my car leaves the shop. It'll be the best $800 spent.

with all the turbulence going on over the engine lid, make sure you pick something tall enough to catch clean air coming over the top of the roof

what are your plans to balance this out up front?

I was looking at the Madpsi front lip, is that a good decision you think? Or is the Greddy front lip better?

pics? I'm not very familiar with the non-stock body pieces...

MadPsi is not on my good list - tried several times to inquire about a replacement hood with no response. Hopefully their service has improved...

might end up getting a better product for pure downforce by building something yourself - but I'll hold off until I see what pieces you're thinking

The madpsi carbon front lip looks like this:

I also think that wing looks pretty good with the setup but i'm not sure which one it is. The greddy is as follows:

A lot of people with track cars make their front splitters out of cheap replaceable materials (wood, etc) because it is quite likely it will get removed when off-roading (leaving the track unexpectedly). Then it won't cost a mint to replace. May look like ass, but is very functional.

My choice:
93+ lip with splitter attached to the bottom.

I think the madpsi carbon front lip looks like it could have come stock on the car with a little paint (very nice). The geddy's looks like a tonka toy, or the first year chevy avalance (gross).
