Nice Job

Nice look, your smart has some very clean lines. Nice!
If you don’t mind me asking, what was your total cost?
I presume it’s just a decorative mod. Does it help to keep the back
a bit cleaner? Any improved handling?

The wing cost $295 + $150 for paint/installation = $445 total

Seller advised it is just a decorative mod, but I felt a slight difference in the handling of the car. Felt reduce drag on the highway, or maybe it's a mental thing. It does keep the back a bit cleaner, compared to before I have the wing.

Better be a mental thing.

It took us a team of engineers, 78 pressure sensors, 4 DAQ loggers, 2 duo core laptops to datalog pressure pts on a race car in a tunnel and on the race track.

If a reduction in drag can be "felt" while driving, we would have lost our jobs a lot time ago.

Ok, I give you props on that wing it's clean.

But....

It kind of looks like two spoilers stacked on top of each other. Given that it is attached to the stock "spoiler" already on our smarts.

I'm not trying to disrespect it. Guess I'd have to see it up close and in person.
