Default Rear Wing on 98-02 Camaro

I asked this question in the single digit club, but no one answered so maybe they don't want me there. I have a 98 Camaro and need to start thinking about putting a rear wing on it. I really don;t know where to get one. I only see them at Jerry Bickel. I also don't know if I should get one that turns down on the ends or is straight from end to end. Finally, I may want Carbon fiber, but am not sure if I have to make that myself by gluing the carbon sheet on top. ????????? Anyone out there have any experience with this issue whatsoever? Thanks, Mike

I'm pretty sure burkhart makes one and madman also. I'm not sure about midwest. I think I read that Jon Van O is still making some carbon fiber stuff but its EXPENSIVE.

That strut less 17" wing from race craft is bad ***. That is pretty much what I am looking for. I wander if it is aluminum or steel? I can call them on Monday. If its aluminum and no rust issues I could eventually have it dipped on that new carbon fiber paint vat or whatever it is. I saw some aluminum valve covers done recently and I could not tell it was not real carbon fiber. It was 3 dimensional.

Hydro-dipped. That was what I was thinking of. Yes, that is exactly what I want to do with it. Also, Madman, you are always the first person I will let work on my car unless you are too busy, then I have to struggle through it myself.

8.51 all motor - wow, that is super impressive. Is it an LSX or big block? Also, does that wing require the removal of the stock wing or does it just take off from the stock wing?? I would hate to remove the stock wing becuase it would then leave problems with the quarter panels, mrequiring body work, etc.
