Vizon High Velocity 190mm touring car rear wing

Vizon High Velocity 190mm touring car rear wing

After introducing a set of 3D printed 190mm touring car wings Josh Cyrul now have a third Vizon brand wing available in the form of the “High Velocity”. Manufactured using advanced 3D printing techniques the wing is strong enough to withstand some serious impacts meaning you can actually run it in competition. The special design, inspired by full scale race car bodywork, reduces drag and increases downforce to make the most out of today’s touring car bodies. Like the two previously released wings the part comes white and in a slightly grainy finish and it is highly recommended to paint the wing for flexibility and durability.
