Have not seen this done but it also seems super complicated based on the electronics associated with it.

Will it work without the electronics?

Can you retrofit the in-trunk supports?

No idea if it will or not but it doesn't look as simple the GT4 wing swap to me. Everything is much heavier duty and I can't see how the struts in the trunk mount below the floor.

Where there is a will and enough money, there is always a way.

It wouldnt look right.. GTR doesnt have the same body shape as the BS.. BS has more vents and aero’s on the body so a huge spoiler in the back looks nice on it

Because I think it would be interesting to see if someone can pull it off (not my thing), here is a cheat sheet:

This is what Ive done to my rear wing. I know it doesnt compare to the BS wing, but I think our (GTR) wings are to shy. Can be a little more agresive, like a GT3RS style. For me the BS wing is too much,

It really comes down to how much YOU like it, in the end.

.
I think I saw a Tiki post about a double wing in development, not 1:1 like the BS but one that would incorporate a smaller wing in the middle of the wing risers. May have been a different company, but I feel strongly that it was some IG post by Tikt

Made it myself. With the help of a friend with CNC machines.
Made the drawings first and then on some aluminum plates.

No, but I could make more.
You just have to figure it out the hardware to use.
I had to paint some SS nuts, and some aluminum washers to place longer bolts.
Could send you detailed pixs where it showed what bolts, nuts and washers I used.

Any chance you can post some detailed pics? I would also be interested in a pair of risers for my GTR wing.
