Carbon Wing Blade Gtr R33

[Adz2332]

Hi,

Im looking at getting the rear wing blade for my 33 GTR in carbon.

Have only found one for sale on Just Japs website.

Any one seen anyone else selling them?

Also has anyone seen the just jap carbon blade in person?

Whats the quality like?

Look any good?

Any help would be great

I'm pretty sure I've seen the just jap one. and it looked very, very nice. my only small criticism of it is that as it's not dry carbon (like some of the japanese ones) it is quite heavy. but it's not a big deal really unless you are talking race car. in which case by a dry carbon one, but be prepared to pay a lot more than $450...

[Adz2332]

yer thats fair enough. Na its just for a bit of looks thats all. I have the carbon end caps on the spoiler so wanted a carbon blade. Not bothered about the heavyness of it. Not sure if i like the little lip it has on it.

Any one have any pics of it on a car??

Not being dry carbon etc, what do they wear like?? do they fade quick etc etc??

also keen on knowing the answers here, as looking to break the green in my car was thinking carbon wing n bonnet.

I had a dry carbon one on my 33 GTR. not being dry carbon wont affect the life. if anything they will keep their finish longer as they have lots of resin on them. the JJ ones look nice. the only benefit dry carbon has it's is lighter and stronger but looks wise many people prefer the wet carbon look.

here are some pics of my car with a dry carbon wing blade. sorry they aren't really good pics of the wing. but it's all I have handy.

cheers mate!

Looks hot!!!

might get one now!

Did you have to do anything to keep it looking good?

Any special cleaning or what ever?

[Beer Baron]

nah, I don't think they require any special maintenance. obviously if you park your car outside they will fade over time (just like your paint will too). but if your car is garaged and washed regularly you shouldn't have any problems.

excellent thanks.

yer just saw a carbon bonnet the other day that was fadded quite badly...

look terrable!!

Why bother with dry carbon for a wing blade? The weight saving would only be around a kg and it the rigidity difference would also be negligible. The price difference would be extreme too.
