Good luck Cutting titanium and adding weight with welds if you want to mod that
the wing is already all carbon fiber. also, if you find the right welder, of course you can weld ti, how do you think they made the exhaust in the first place? it's just a matter of finding comeone who can do it. I think it *could* look better shoretened a few inches, but wouldn't stress about it if you can't find someone to do it.

Looks fine to me. Not worth the trouble of modding it.

like i said earlier, dont mod it because you cant weld ti correctly and if you could it would just degrade the exhaust and cost a lot. leave it wingless, it looks great

i def believe i need to mod it. But i called around and found someone that would weld Ti and he said just to cut out 2inches and reweld it would be a couple hundred bucks. So im thinking im going to start a forsale thread on Greddy Ti

I voted to leave it. Why, you don't want to be cleaning your rear bumper from all of the black smoke that will stain your bumper.

So just leave it, looks good
