Truthiness.The wing was the first thing I did because I could see the whole idea in my head and was excited for the finished part - glad you guys like it.
I originally was going to do the front of the car olive drab with a digital breakout. But once I got the side graphics on the car I really liked the clean look of just using a few colors. So I scrapped wrapping the front end; which saved me from buying a $90 roll of high performance conformable vinyl. Then I just threw together an idea for the front end. But I like how it turned out - I'm a fan of asymmetry.
I added an engine bay shot to the first post as well
Here's the original concept I was working off. I was too lazy to put the Olive drab NT03's on the car for the garage shoot pictures.

^^^^ The main track day groups I run with are Alfa and Porsche. I added a few others after that close-up as well, didn't want to leave out the Italians at Ferrari, or the Brits and their Lotus; or the Honda/Acura boys.

Yes, that is the wing that I built.
Yeah, hopefully most think this isn't "true rice". It's a fine line to walk when rockin' a big wing and graphics. I've tried to stay on the "race car" side of the line.
These guys are walking on the other side of the line.

Having the vinyl plotter just sitting around is too tempting....
I'm going to make some "tow", and "jack" arrows for the bumpers and side skirts, as well as E85 stickers. E85 is too good not to get a little "press" on the side of the car.
