FS: UT Brand New Custom 310mm Spoon 3DGT Wing Stands
PM me for quickest response.
Location: Salt Lake City, UT
For sale are a brand new pair of custom 310mm height wing stands made to fit the spoon 3dgt wing. Stock height on the spoon is roughly 265mm from eye to eye (even though spoon claims 300mm, it's not actually the wing stand height), these raise spoon's stock height 45mm. These are 1/2" inch thickness 7075 aerospace grade aluminum (I chose this grade aluminum because it is almost twice as stiff as 6061 grade aluminum, also 7075 is more expensive than 6061...commonly used on voltex wing stands sold by others on the web) and these were cut with a water jet cutter. I've searched around for ages and haven't found a single company who sells raised spoon gt stands, the only thing remotely close to anything found on the net was the stands that Alex at Ballade Sports made for his race car. While searching for higher wing stands, I asked Alex if he sells any and he told me that they don't stock the wingstands and they are custom cut to order and the price point would be over $400 for a pair. Since the price point was a little high for me and I wanted to play with wing stand heights, I made a couple CAD drawings and purchased some 1/2" thick 7075 aluminum and had these custom made. I made two different heights, the one I am selling (310mm) and the one I currently have on my car (345mm). The holes were drilled with a drill bit to the exact same dimensions as the original spoon stand, but the wing stand shape was cut with a water jet so the edges are a bit rough since the aluminum is a heavy duty 1/2" thick.
Price: $175 + shipping + paypal fees (versus $350+ if you were to find it elsewhere).
Stock wing stand (not for sale, just for illustration purposes):

Side by Side Comparison of the original Spoon Wing Stand and the custom 310mm wing Stand:
The wing stand finish is raw, what you see in the photo is what you're getting. I've been running my 345mm stands on my car for around 6 months now and no issues, and looks great.
