Idk how I feel about it. My first reaction is that it looks good. But something about it makes me feel that it should have stayed wingless. Is this the only carbon fiber on your whip?

I'm surprised you scored those CF endcaps. Both places I looked before I got mine didn't have any included with the wing (even though the descriptions said they were).

Where you get the wing, if you don't mind me asking? I'm considering buying another one.

well, I guess it must be the pics then. As long as it's not the only cf you have, I guess it seems fitting. Looks good irregardless of my opinion!

Aww... ok. I was hoping there was a vendor/supplier that still had them. It appears they stopped being made a while back and mine's going to need to be reconditioned soon, and I'm a bit clueless on what I'm going to need to do to it. It's developed chips/cracks on the trailing edge of it.

You could get CF risers, but I'm like you, I like this blended look over the full CF look.
