Hello all.

Need some info please. One of the forum items called "Alternative wings" shows a Grey 1999 Sports with a integrated rear wing. Does anyone know anything about this particular car at all? Hopefully, will be buying it in the morning and wondered if anyone knows anything good or bad about it.

Many thanks.

Believe that the factory offered the integrated wing a-la F40 on the Sports. Does look quite nice. The other options were the "tea tray" style spoiler and a carbon or ali pylon mounted wing.

Have you considered asking the factory who built the car originally. This car looks very much like one L drove a few years back. I saw this car on Ebay and asked the chassis number but the seller declined to send that info to me. Have you bought it yet? If it is the one I am thinking of I can tell you a little about it.
As someone said above, there are 3 wing types. I have the fixed F40 wing as it is effective and convenient as you dont need to remove the wing to get at the engine.
