Car feels great, at the moment my rear seats are out as well...car just feels so much better. Faster. GT4 wing isn't hugh like the Varis wing, it does/should create some downforce at higher speed but not as much as those giant wings. Mine looks so puny compare to Varis or APR those M3 suspension bits really came alive with addition of M3 bushings. Makes most noticible difference imo. Car feels very planted and tight through the corners.

Just a thought.... Dallassteeringwheel does an AMAZING job wrapping and matching bmw stitching. You should have them wrap your dash in alcantara and then do BMW style stitching along the top front edge if the dash!... Better yet send em your steering wheel too and have em restitch the white with orange and do the same on the dash!

The cross section in the front and the back of the roof is what holds the rigidity, not the roof panel itself.
If you are thinking to do it, dont be afraid and just do it!

I actually really like that wing as a DD and partial track car. Give some downforce but doesn't look like a stealth bomber. Subtle but functional. Looks good D!
