There was a delay with the courier but it's arriving today... I'll have to repaint the struts first but will probably get it done tomorrow or Saturday assuming it arrives 👍

Initial inspection looks pretty darn good. It's mahoosive! DVD case for scale 🤣

Stunning!!👌😎

That looks fantastic. For 1k plus import tax it appears a complete bargain. Can’t wait to see it on the car. What colour do the struts come in?

It's very good but not quite perfect. However I'd say the build is pretty much inline with my 350s fin TBH!

Struts and brackets are all painted satin black but soon to be gunmetal 😉

Ideally the carbon would have the herringbone effect like OEM, but for 1k I think it looks excellent. Hurry up and get it fitted 😉👍😂

This is the best image I could find of "the real thing" from what I can see the weave is very similar. The main niggles are small gaps where the end plates join. I don't think they'll really be noticeable when fitted due to the canted angle of the plates but I'll try and get some good daylight pics 👍

Here we go... I've put a sheet of white paper behind so it's more obvious.

That is going to look super on your car!

@MAG I think it looks fantastic. I didn’t realise the weave on the original wing wasn’t herringbone, so it looks even closer to OEM then I thought. The gaps aren't too bad. Can’t wait to see it fitted. I am almost certain that I too will be ordering one 😀

[MAG]

Just had a look at my standard 350 fin and TBH it's much the same 🤣

Gunmetal on and baked, laquer to go on and then in an hour or so assembly can start 👍

I always thought the original was weaving one way one side and one way the other which I'm guessing is what is meant by herring bone - but the pic above posted by @MAG shows it not to.  Would be interested to know if it’s the same on other original Cup 380 wings?

The pic I posted is an original wing mate. The pics taken from a dealership website 👍

Yeah was thinking that......is that the one that’s for sale on Autotrader? - was surprised to see that’s how it is on an original Cup 380🤔

the spoiler isn't a fish bone design on the cup 430 - the weave goes in the same direction for the whole wing.
