Message	With the FRP material we are using, we can meet the wing with the body of the car very smoothly...Contrary to the foam material used on the stock wing, where you can not make thin sections and the result is that you have a massive material breaking the smoothness on the unions. Nowadays, the cars use urethane, fiberglass or carbon fiber on their wings...Foam is 80's history.
