Default OEM style Carbon Fiber Wing

Looking to order a OEM style carbon fiber wing, where would you guys recommend ordering one from? I don’t want to order something that isn’t going to fit right.

i got mine from vis racing, it was okay quality but great fit.... I would prolly check up with a company called Firmware, i've seen the great quality of some of their CF products for the xB...

IIRC you want to fill the mounting holes you will need to reuse the factory covers

I am ready to order one, but can you double check for me on the mounting hole covers? seems like the holes are different than the factory top holes?

I confirmed it my boss. the stock caps are used to hide the mounting holes

They are indeed "Real" Carbon Fiber, although they DO NOT mount with the factory hardware. The picture shows that they have the hole on top to mount the wing in the factory location but they don't! You will have to drill in order to get this to mount!

I have this same wing and purchased it from Intense Motorsports.

OK, INTENSE_POWER...Do they mount to factory locations with factory hardware? Or not? Do they use factory caps to cover the holes in the wing?

Sorry for the confusion, arizonaturbo is correct. We just Inspected the new shipment of the wings. I was not aware the design on our wing was changed. Drilling is required for the new wing. The mounting points were changed and no longer uses the stock location holes like the older model. The finish on the new CF wing is amazing and gives it a smoother and cleaner finish.

again, sorry for the confusion. I hope this clear things up

Oh, and does it include the mounting hardware and template since it doesn't use the stock mounting holes?

Actually,

the mounting screw that the wing comes with will not work for this wing. You will have to go to your local hardware store and get 6mm x 75mm bolts with lock washers and flat washers.
