Mitch, are you still looking for a BA rear wing? Have one here with removable legs as well as a pair of F/Glass Typhoon legs. The legs will need to be reshaped to suit the EF/EL boot but its not that hard. Includes LED Brake Light. Wing is original BA.

Paint the hub of your rotor in black high temp paint. It will look so much better than the rusty shiit that is on most other E series cars.
