EOS High wing

Anti-Venom · 03-09-2022, 08:37 PM

Just wanted to share these pics of a EOS high wing I bought on Amazon. It was very reasonably priced. Also it lined up perfectly. The only negative was that the center screw was not long enough. Had to go to the hardware store for a longer screw. But the company did send me longer one a week later. I was skeptical about ordering this spoiler. But it came out great. The only time consuming part was getting the old one off (2.5 hours of labor).

Downside of the high spoiler in my experience, is that seat position matters greatly in regards to whether or not your rear view mirror is of use anymore lol.
Where my preferred seat position is, I have to duck a bit to see under the spoiler :|

Damn I didn't realize removing the oem spoiler was would take so much time. Just when I was thinking about installing a street fighter spoiler on mine. Haha

What were the challenges? I just got mine in last Saturday so haven't had much time to look her over.

No issue with the 2020+ models since they have a rearview camera in the sharkfin anntena on the roof.

Does that wing flex at high speed and does it come painted?

The Tape plus getting the centering tabs on the outer two stancions to detach while working through pulling up the spoiler without letting it scratch the paint. All I can say is a lot of masking tape, protecting microfibers taped to the deck lid, patience and heat.

A second person would be extremely helpful, doing it myself was agonizing worrying about it falling and scratching paint.

Pretty much the consensus is unless it's the OEM, Anderson, or C7 carbon.....all of those "plastic" wings that are on ebay and amazon (they all look like the EOS wing) will "flap" around at speed.....they look good, pretty easy to install......but there's that adage....."you get what you pay for"...... and yes they come painted or primer and even carbon fiber "look"

The Anderson Composites wing will not flex under speed, it's a quality part. If you got proof otherwise, post a video here please.
