i think the 9's have fiberglass wings. it sucks ***** and it feels real crappy when you tap it with your finger. find an 8 and compare, and you'll see

my EVO's going into the bodyshop monday for some cf treatment and some paint to match...i was thinking that while it's in there they could unpaint and clear the wing if it's all carbon. would match great with the CF hood, trunk, and black roofline

The differeneces that I found on the wing of my Evo 8 and my Evo 9 is that the Evo 8 wing has the vertical inner supports of the wing made of carbon fiber while the Evo 9 inner vertical wing supports are plastic.

sides are ABS plastic. It weighs less than the 8 wing FYI. It looks similar but not as good imo. Feels cheap when tap on the sides compared to the 8's wing.

how can you think the EVO wing is ugly? it completes the car, and has a purpose. if it's functional, it's beautiful. without it the car looks like it's missing something...a damn wing
