GTS style rear wing options for M2C?

I love the M performance carbon rear wing for the M2C. However, i don't want to spend the $2.5k on it.

Any options on similar GTS style rear wings for the M2C?

Anybody buy those ones on ebay that from China?

Any recommendations?

Thanks

Tip: don't buy Chinese shit please... Quality is not good. If you pay less, you get less.

I'm selling my RW carbon GTS wing. $1k if you have AW, and are willing to swap trunks. $1200 plus shipping without a trunk trade. just need to find a box big enough.

I am a Chinese. I can confirm there might not be anything reliably available there.

BUT, i would like to kindly ask you - what do you mean, MR.??? Don't you have anything at home made in China? You country does not make any trade with China? China used to make a lot of low quality and cheap stuff, that I don not deny. But we are improving and growing, which is a journey most of the countries have been through.

I am surprised, in a civilized forum, there is someone behaving as such. I have a very big question mark on your sort of reputation you have gained in the past 5 years in the forum.

I have seen and worked with too many cheap Chinese carbon parts over the last 8 years to know that the quality is horrible. Even a few weeks ago I had some of them in my hands and I was like blown away about the sheer lack of quality of them. They have flooded the market. Same goes for cheap Czech carbon parts. Same crap quality, different country.

Next to that I have also seen decent Chinese carbon parts coming to Europe, which are sold at the right price tag and are decently made. My statement had everything to do with the fact that the OP considers Ebay = Chinese = cheap = you can sit for a dime on the front row. It doesn't work like that.

My tip is: Don't buy cheap Chinese shit, nor buy cheap Czech shit, nor buy anything elsewhere that is made of carbon and is too cheap to be true...

And I am living in Czech Republic which is (one of) the biggest carbon manufacturing country of Europe, the China of Europe so to speak when it comes to carbon fiber.

I hope this removes any question marks you have!

If you buy cheap, the quality is usually going to be comparable to the price, regardless of where its manufactured.

And your first name is Marc, so a nice new nickname would be 'Question Marc'

So, what I believe you were trying to say is don't buy cheap knock-off crap. I'm pretty sure the phone or computer that you typed that on was neither cheap or a knock-off but it was made in China.

Hopefully no one tells this guy that BMW OEM CF pieces are actually made in China. He may question his whole reality
