[B]One thing I can say about Amemiya products, they are designed to enhance performance or he wouldn't make them. I can almost promise you that wing spent some time in a wind tunnle and on a track before it was put up for sale.
this is true....

considering that it's a direct design copy of the high-speed element that are retrofitted to all JGTC cars at a relegated height, with relegated end plates and hardware etc, this wing is far from optimized for the RX-8.
it doesn't look terrible, but it doesn't look good, either. the hardware seems heavy (overkill), especially for the application.
being that this is 95% an aethetic upgrade, a look-alike that's lighter and cheaper is a better bet than the real thing (which, even in terms of legitimate application isn't necessarily your best bet for that amount of money anyways)

Where did you get that info? If you can read the Japanes on the site that wing is being developed for Re-amemiya's Super 8 N/A rotary competion series. That wing is NOT just an ethstetic upgrade.

That wing is truly functional. We installed an RE Amemiya GT II wing on our 3rd Gen RX7 project car and took it up to 150 mph. The car is much more stable at high speed.
The wing on the rx8 is the street spec GT III wing. If you want the racing spec that's used on the JGTC RE Ammeiya RX7, we can also import that one for you.
The price will be the following:
GT II carbon fiber wing: $1580
GT III carbon fiber wing: $1680
GT III fiberglass wing: $1380
It takes about 4 weeks to arrive from Japan. Thank you.

I think this front is about the nicest I've seen, especially since they made use of the fog lamps, that it semms others don't utilize. Correct me if I"m wrong, but the MS front end never shows the fog lamps.
