Installation guide
6th Gen Camaro “Big Wang” Install
(Link includes photos from a 2018 SS 1LE) Tools required:
Step 1: Organize the parts from the kit I had no idea how a Big Wang would be packaged, but the laser cut “end plate frame” method worked pretty well. There was some damage to one corner to the ¼” plywood but the wing and other contents arrived just fine. Step 2: Loosely assemble stanchions to the Big Wang
Step 3: Roughly position the Big Wang so you can tape the area in prep for drilling.
Step 4: Mark the holes, remove the interior trim piece, drill a ⅛” pilot hole, and then finish off with a ¼” hole.
Step 5: Scariest part for me - hole saw time!
Step 6: Remove blue tape, position and bolt up assembly
Step 7: Replace the trim piece Step 8: Position the wing AOA as you like. I set mine up for 1 degree for now. Step 9: Screw on the end plates
Additional notes:

Pictures are in the link. I guess I can add them here too. Will get that done today.
I find their response to email iffy. Phone has been better if not perfect.

Looks good. I would like to see a side shot to see how far it sticks out past the rear bumper

Went out with a level and tape measure and got 61mm at the middle of the car.

Seems like the aero sports concepts splitter is the one to get given the support rods connect directly to the crash car. The APR ones appear to connect to the bumper which doesn't seem like a great design for the track. I could be wrong but that's what it looks like from the photos.

The nine lives stuff is great for the price point. Can't beat it.

@oneplustwo I'm thinking about the nine lives racing wing setup, any updates after a year of ownership?
