EVO IX Wing Gurney Flap - CHEAP!

So I wanted my EVO VIII wing to be like a EVO IX wing with the little element on the trailling edge.

So a trip to the auto parts store for a door edge protecter and VOILA! $3.25





All the hottness, none of the overpriced after taste

It comes with nice 3M adhesive tape - just pull off the backing and stick. I got it at Pep Boys. It's just door trim. Not the split kind that is "U" shaped. It's just a standard half circle.

I should have done gold that would've been ghetto fab!
