STOLEN: Voltex Type V 1700mm GT wing for EVO X
First off, I am posting this for a friend of mine.
Yes, this was the wing that I used to have on my car, but I've sold it to my friend.

-Voltex Type V 1700mm GT wing for EVO X
-Last seen: 3:00am, August 23rd, 2010 at 272X Napier St, Vancouver (between Kaslo and Slocan).
-Found missing: 3:00pm, August 23rd, 2010.

My friend parked his blue Evo X overnight in front of his house on Napier St., Vancouver, (the block between Kaslo and Slocan), at around 3:00am of August 23rd, 2010. He found out his wing got stolen at around 3:00pm on the same day. They took the wing with the end plates and brackets by unbolting the bottom 4 bolts on the brackets. The trunk bases were not stolen, as they were bolted into the trunk.


Here are pictures of the wing:










I know it's a long shot, but if anyone has any information, please PM me or call my friend Joey at 778-991-3228. Thanks guys!

I know thieves are stupid, but what do they do with the wing without the bases?

a base is relatively easy to fabricate. the expensive part is the upright and the wingspan.

I've been thinking how is one suppose to make their carbon wing more secure?

yah good thing u pointed that out cuz knowing revscene and all you'd expect comments like "the thief did u a favor" or some other shit like "you try looking for that at a park?" or maybe even some shit like "you owned that before?" comments like that are unnecessary.
