Where is the data on their website showing actual wind tunnel testing vs. just CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics)? Ride height, wheel / tire combo, all kinds of things affect it, so, I'd like to know not on the results but the combo using in the "wind tunnel testing".

Face it people would buy this wing for looks What your at the track for a couple hours vs having the car for a yr or more.

It's literally like a super aerodynamic 300lbs dude sitting on your trunk at 100mph.
I could imagine that straining the sheet metal if there isn't some kind support under the wing mounts.

Also the OEM wing has 3 supports, this one only has 2.
So if this thing generates similar downforce, that force is being applied over 2 mounts instead of 3 meaning a higher pound per square inch of force trying to deform your trunk.
Hopefully all that has been considered, just calling it out because if this thing was bought just for looks, it could cause some damage.

The 2018 ZL1 and The ZL1 1LE have the same reinforced trunks. I put most of my weight on the top of the wing over the mount points and it was fine. I'm not worried about that in the slightest.

You'd have to reach out to APR for that.

I'll have real world track test results in a week or so when I can get back out on track.

Let us know. Maybe they do as someone said, I just couldn't find it on their website, but, that's not saying much as my interweb skillz...
