I was wondering if anyone knows the paint code to these parts. I know the paint code for the new gray MR is A39. But the wing and vortex generator are darker. These two parts are the same color. I know this is going to be a hard one to ask...but if anyone out there with an MR in Europe or Japan...or any other place that has it already please could you tell us...thanks! Just for reference....it might be listed as Eisen Gray or Dark Gray Mica. Thanks!

He meant "bump"

 

yeah bumpizzzle

 

I'm onto it

 

i think the color would be "carbon fiber"

 

carbon fiber????? what are you talking about? The only thing that is carbon fiber is the middle of the wing...like on your evo...well and the e-brake handle now on the MR.

 

is there any concrete benefit from the vortex generator besides the usual theories and hypothesis?

 

more then likely did wind tunnel tests to ensure they were not detremental to the cars performance. I think the tech comes from some of their race versions as well, which means more then likely a lot of time and money was spent testing them.

 

Mitsubishi UK refuse to sell the generator because of how it randomly comes loose and flies off the car...not many JDM ones have them either. as for E-BRake...do you mean hand brake i.e. stick in the middle ...becuase that's not cf

 

haha, have you even looked at the regular evo wings? the whole thing is carbon fiber.....look at the pain closely and you'll see the3 wave through the paint

 

i think if u properly prep the surface before attaching it, it wont come off even at high speeds... then again if i compete regularly at the track, i'd get it bolted on..

 

I think he meant that only the middle bit, i.e. insert of the wing is carbon fibre. The actual upstands are just painted gunmetal

 

you'd be a braver man than me to bolt something through your alu roof

 

the whole evo 8 wing is NOT carbon fiber! just the center section and the insides of the upright part of the wing.

And the U.S. is getting the carbon fiber e-brake handle. Now if is fake carbon fiber I have no clue.
