  • In this video I do a full installation of CT Carbon's Nismo Style wing on my R35 GT-R. I show how to remove the stock wing as well as some hints and tricks on how to install a Nismo Wing. I then show how to measure and drill the holes in your trunk to install the Nismo wing. After it is installed I do a full review of CT Carbon Nismo Wing incase you were looking to buy. I show off the wings strengths and weaknesses so you are fully informed before you commit to buying.

    Another great instructional video!!
    Darwinpro is also a very good vendor (as mentioned in this video). I ordered 17' Nismo front bumper from them before. Almost perfect fit (only a bit of adjustment to make by the body shop. No sanding, cutting, or anything crazy like that). The carbon fiber is of great quality. The only thing that sucks is the wait time. Darwinpro makes product inhouse, so it takes a bit of waiting once you placed the order. However, that just mean that they (probably) don't just send you cheap parts from other Chinese vendors like alibaba etc.

    I mounted a similar wing from CT Carbon on my car in the spring of 2021. I bolted the central part with two m5 bolts. I put nut rivets in the central part, drilled holes, safer than just 3m tape.

    Great video. You should have gotten the NTune ones. That wing looks cheap and awkward with "more rear edge sticking out" and that third brake light sucks with only double-sided tape and not flush with the trunk. But then it's your car.

      I did, they claimed to do a design and sent it to me. It wasn't enough of a change. I let them know. They said they were going to go again, but haven't heard from them in a while.
      As I said, for a $1200 wing it's good, but if you have the $3k go with EPI
