Adjustable electronically?
Or do you have to get out and move it yourself.

This would require a totally new mould, so not at the moment.

Think it would look better on the standard base, never been keen on the sloping style spoliers on newage cars.

I too would like the Syms style adjustable wing to fit the stock STI lower half.

Much classier to have an exact replica of the OEM wing with an adjustable blade.

They are made by Syms in Japan and are available from JapanParts etc.Theyre crazy expensive mostly due to import costs.

Lushest adjustable STI wing out there by a mile.

This HT one is a good effort but the side blades are too small and swept back IMO. The lack of lower half makes the lines not flow as well. The beauty of the Syms one is that it fastens to the OEM lower half.
If HT could make one that fits the OEM lower half they would be onto a bigtime winner.

Thats more like it Mark

Would you be able to make teh adjustable part of the blade longer so it goes all the way to the wing ends, rather than starting the 60mm or so in as it does now?

Also the Syms one has a more agressively shaped blade, is this a posibility or too much work?

Great to see a company directly responding to customer feedback and input.

how do you lock the blade in one of the two positions if no lock bolts and blade is too small will look strange when tilted up?

The blade has cost us £8,000.00 in tooling, so would like to use it if possible. See what i can come up with next week

First impressions: looks like it belongs on a classic.

After a while though its growing on me, love the adjustment but does not look as nice as my WR Prodrive spolier
