1999 Replica Combat wing - 3000GT/Stealth International Message Center

Disrupter · 07-11-2008, 09:47 AM

I was told to make a thread to see if there was intrest in Extreme Dimensions making us a replica 99 combat wing. I explained to them that a major concern for the wing is durability (if lacking will cause cracking, etc.) and cost (oem is around $1000). So if this goes through then the strongest selling points will be a strong wing which can handle itself at high speeds and cost effective. any further information or input would also be useful!

I'd be all over it in a year or so, depending of course on price.

I'dbe interested but I think im just going to suck it up and buy the OEM one. Dont have to second guess it, it wont crack or break or flap in the wind.

^ its cool, just wanted to show that we may have another option. Maybe Ill post the intrest generated in the other thread.

No man I appreciate the help...i just feel like if something that is durable enough is going to be made, its going to be a while from now and probably not much cheaper if its made right.

Again I appreciate the heads up

actually, ALL 99 factory wings are known to crack on the fiberglass mount portion.

I thought it was due to the center section being weak. Which at high speeds would bend putting stress on the sides?
