Again I haven't been posting much. Have got a few things accomplished over the winter.
Pulled the bumpers off an put a coat of Plasti-Dip on them. I'll likely go back to the powder coater one day and match the frame but this was a quick fix for the season. I also got my uprights designed, cut, then modified, then painted, then installed for my wing. Thank you to
@ATMironov for sharing his CAD file. I ended up with a drastically different design but it was a very helpful start. I'll attached some progress photos. I did make a pretty big mistake. On my Winglogic wing I assume the brackets that came with the wing went the opposite direction so that is how a designed my uprights. I was able to get the angle grinder out and make some modifications so they would work. I also fabricated my on X bracing out of some 1/4" round bar and some sheet metal. I'm not a great fabricator but is really stiffened it up. Also had some fun getting the aluminum tabs welded on the wing. I took it to a shop and he did a great job but the wing warped big time (should have seen it coming i guess). The guy was great though and we worked on it heating and applying pressure for a few hours and got it looking good again.
The wife and I finally got to get out and put some miles on it Sunday 3/3. We had a lot of fun. I put it on the interstate for a bit. It runs straight and the wheel is stable but it feels a little sketch when you hit a bump on the interstate at 70mph. I think I need some advice on softening the rear suspension. I also ended up driving it in to work Tuesday because I had a doc appt and the weather was nice by the time I was heading to work. Everything was going well until I got caught in the rain on the way home. All is good except it makes a real mess when you drive in the rain. I'll have to spend a few hours this weekend cleaning it up again.
I ordered a Rearview mirror that came in this week so I look forward to getting that installed over the weekend also.

My photos are likely out of order but I've attached a few. I think you guys will like the crew we ended up riding with on Sunday. Pretty broad spectrum of vehicles.
