The big difference is that the Evo VII wing is adjustable (pop the end plates and adjust the pins). Supposedly the Evo VIII (8 for the lazy) wing is all carbon with just the side plates painted, so weight should be about the same. All in all, I like the Evo VIII wing better... but it looks good.

Well, from what i know, The Evo8 JDM version is the improved Evo7... And the wing on the Evo8 has better down force, and everyone knows that downforce is needed on an Evo..... Thats what i just heard.. Dont know if it is true..

The wing looks nice!

Evo's don't need downforce until they see track time...

Yea it looks nice. I dont know which I prefer....

The EVO VII wing has Carbon Fiber sides also, theyre just painted. So yea, the weight should be the same. The VII looks like it has paint on the inside of the sides also.

The JDM 8 wing is adjustable. Ours is not. Take a peek at your user manual. I don't believe the outer panels of the USDM 8 wing are carbon.
Nice wing, though. I am sursprised. It looks taller and wider than the 8. My personal favourite is the 6, but doubtless it doesn't fit, nor look good on an 8.
Anyone want to trade an EVO8 for their 6.5?

The US Evo VIII and JDM VIII have non adjustable wings. The manual is incorrect in saying that the wing is adjustable....they prob never edited that portion of the manual properly when updating the text for the Evo VIII.
