Which one would you buy and why?
post up some pictures and more of your story please , I know show cars wing is like a one piece right ? and it does really sway in the middle right ???I purchased the parts to make a kit from Showcars. The wing was the probably the best piece that I received, and it has a belly to the crossbar. I went with Showcars because I thought I was going to save some money over Janek....my mistake. Luckily I found a fiberglass guy to work with what I got from Showcars, but it cost me an extra couple grand to get everything fixed and installed on the car. If anyone wants to hear the rest of the story from showcars feel free to contact me.

I'd like to know as well. I will be looking for a wing soon too, and would like to know what the various opinions and experiences are. On the same topic...
- What about the wing washers and braces - who makes these?
- Washers and braces - What's better, steel or fibreglass?
- Costs?
If I'm not mistaken, Don CURRIE, the batmobile guy in BC, also makes wings. I'm unsure if he makes them in fibreglass, steel, or both.
Looking forward to the input.

Same question on the noses. I heard the janak nose was very heavy. What's an original nose weigh? I sent an email to the guy that does the noses in steel but have yet to get a reply.
What's the weight of:
1. An original wing
2. A janak fiberglass wing
3. Stuarts buddy's steel wing
4. Stuarts buddy's wing done in aluminum if it's available
Mine is a race application. I don't need to put hot chicks on it!
Stuart,
It's a "what if" rendition I found online while looking for superbird wing and nose reference pictures. I thought you'd like it. While a convertible would be cool, I'm not building one of those.
