Nine Lives Racing Big Wang Kit for M2

Anyone on the board with one of these or able to offer an informed opinion?
  • I would love some more rear end stability on high speed corners,
  • This looks to mount to the boot/trunk supports in a similar manner to the CS racing wing so should be reasonably supported and,
  • It's reasonly priced.

Im running APR but I do enjoy the mounting location of that kit you posted.

Just make sure you buy shorter trunk struts if you dont want the wing smashing into your window. I installed kia carnival hood struts for mine

Heh, they probably have that foam bumper on the leading edge in that pic specifically for that!

considering getting a 2nd trunk deck for track use -- which sounds absurd, but they are ~800 bucks

im moving along a similar path with boots available from wreckers for ~$700AUD id consider either changing the boot for trackdays and/or engaging with ninelives racing to see if the uprights could be bolted to the plates that are fixed to the boot rather than welded.

I'm not aware of anyone on this forum however they are out there... a helpful chap Adam provided me with some of his experiences and a couple of pics...

his feedback was that the downforce is immense and finding a balance with the front end can be a challange, see pic of splitter, which now has me looking for a quick release chassis mount splitter kit for the m2c.....without much luck yet

I believe Zebulon now has a splitter offering for the m2c with reasonably quick chassis mount release. Might be challenging to import from the states however?

Thank you!

shipping would be a killer, which probs restricts me to importing the hardware to chassis mount (ideally built for the m2) and building my own splitter...ie https://www.professionalawesome.com/...upport-system/
