FL5 Epsilon Sport Wing

Just saw an Instagram post with this wing from Epsilon definitely looks interesting. Looks like the wings from back in the day like the DC2 Integra and DC5.

Thoughts?

Thoughts: A nice way to ruin Honda's fine tuned spoiler designed and set for aerodynamic purposes. The only spoiler I would consider, which I have, is the OEM carbon fiber accessory or the Mugen if you have the remaining Mugen aero kit. At least everything has been wind tunnel tested with Honda and Mugen.

I’m agree on giving off DC2 vibes.
It’s always nice to see more options. Can’t have too many options

Looks good but only certain angles.

I agree, I think if it went all the way down to the trunk lid instead it would be a lot better.

It looks like the have wind tunnel testing information on their site. Not sure how accurate it is, but its from the same design they already have for the Integra.

Looks more like wind tunnel simulation than testing? Can't be that functional if it's made out of ABS? Looks more show than go?

I was stroking my beard and switching between the 2 photos, trying to work out what it is about it that I don't like...
It's the thickness of the leading and trailing edges.

This wing doesn't complement the lines of the car. It looks aftermarket and not in a good way. I'm also not a fan of the color matched wing trend.

I'm still of the mind the OEM Carbon Fiber Wing is the best option for the FL5. The proportions are spot on, utilizes stock wing risers, lighter than stock, vortex generator on the underside is a nice and subtle touch, and the gurney flap is distinct without being overdone or contrived.
