i would be interested to find out if that is true. if that was the case, i would be all over one of those.

its probably close. its on my friend car at the moment so i cant weigh it for you right now, but its thin and the clearcoat isnt as thick as most duckbills(its been recleared). the underside that you can see when the hatch glass is open is carbon kevlar and has a plate with Benen industries and the duckbill number, but yeah ill get him to weigh it

I belive it's pretty close. When I had a Benen wing on my car, it weighed next to nothing. It was much lighter than the VIS cf wing my friend had. Honestly, the wing was lighter than the box they shipped it to me in.

I'm pretty sure they still aren't making those. Everyonce in a while I see one for sale.

I don't believe so, unfortunately. Most that have them, don't want to give them up, because the fit and finish is so good.

Wings West offers a fiberglass version, ready for paint, and I've heard of people getting fiberglass duckbills from ebay as well. Or, you could always paint a cf wing also.

That was an older (last year) JDMsh!t CF duckbill wing. The new ones are much lighter, like what JDMlyfestyle said.
