Mercedes Customer race teams are not permitted to buy parts from HWA and re-sell them on the open market. Contractually, they can't do it. Additionally, a GT4 wing on the back of a GT street car would have to be integrated with front aero changes to be properly functional on the track. The only thing it would really be good for is Cars N Coffee.

Agree that you cant run just a GT4 wing (for performance). If I were able to source one the least of my worries would be sourcing dive panes/splitter as those can be made. Technically you wouldn't need to splitter because the active aero acts as one.
Here's my custom wing I made. Missing a few more items then will be ready to test it at Laguna.
Note: Yes the factory active rear spoiler still functions and has clearance under the wing blade.
That wing is ridiculously large. How much down force does that generate?
youre concerned about aero with those boat anchor wheels you're sporting? Those MB cast wheels are heavy. There’s at least 20lbs of un sprung weight compared to a set of forged aluminum wheels.

I bought the car roughly 4 months ago. I have a set of full carbon Dymag wheels being made for track and another set being made for street. As I stated, waiting for a few more parts.
I have lots of spare race wheels but this car can only run really high offsets with the width it requires. So no choice but to wait.
