    no luck.
    Rear Wing: Each wing shall be mounted to trunk/deck lid with
    two (2) mounting brackets. Each mounting bracket shall attach
    to wing at a point that is at least two inches (2”) inboard of
    endplates. The wing, and the portion of the mounting brackets
    located externally to the trunk/deck lid, may only be reinforced
    by a diagonal strut having no aerodynamic effect, and/or by
    affixing the external parts of the brackets to internal parts of
    the brackets within the trunk/cargo area. The internal parts of
    the brackets may protrude through the trunk/deck lid to allow
    for the two parts of each bracket to be fastened together.
    The rear wing shall be mounted a min. of 6.0” below the
    peak of the roof. Cars with a wagon-style body (i.e. Protege
    5, Civic Type R, etc.) competing in STU may have the rear
    wing mounted a maximum of 4.0” above the roofline. The
    mounting position will be measured between the highest
    points of the roof and wing. The trailing edge of the rear wing
    may be mounted no further rearward than the rear, center-
    point of the approved bodywork. Removable OEM spoilers and
    wings are not permitted. Wings shall be a single element with
    a max chord length of 10.75” and max element width of 48”.
    A wicker may be added provided it does not cause the wing/
    wicker assembly to exceed the stated maximum dimensions.

      Hmmmm.. looks like you'd just need a 48x10.75" wing, although I'm not sure how much it'll really do. Maybe 75-100 lbs of downforce at 100-120 mph as a WAG.

            Did he change the design at all? That crazy profile it has seems like it will suffer from some serious flow separation and case a ton of drag..

                I have sooo much **** to do on my car for the summer and spring is here faaawk already track days :O~

                Final Update!
                Okay! I have all of the new hardware heading out for anodizing this week. I just have one last bit to finish up regarding the S13 hatch mount setup. And i will be bringing a car back from LA in the hauler to finish that. So much has been accomplished in the way of development improvements that you will be simply amazed. And while you are all wondering where in the hell your wings are by now, you have helped me to work out the details on many aspects of the wing build. I have spent thousands of dollars doing it. And it had to be done. It's 4:30 am right now. And i am tired as hell.
                I have a 17 month old daughter that will not fail to wake me up at 7AM : ). Once this hardware comes back from anodizing, i will then assemble the wing shells. Box it all up and ship out. So give it seven days from today to receive your tracking numbers. I will contact each of you for the shipping amount of your boxes. They will go UPS ground. Thanks again, and let me know if you have any questions. Happy to answer them.
                Mike

                        I'm going to be building a splitter based on my new bumper... so everything is still a work in progress... got lots of crap to complete I wont be putting the wing on until i get the body work sorted out.. itll look ridiculously wide without the rear widebody... 72" lol... plus need to finish splitter obviously... I'll probably go for building a 6" splitter... and it'll be pretty wide in itself as well since the front bumper is pretty wide.

                        I need to finish headlights project... fix hood (the oem latch is pooched -- need to get replacements as i wana temporarily gut oem hood), need to fix mbc and im contemplating going dual manual masters... what else... oil change, bunch of fluids change, number of things to sort out... and i just want to get it road ready so i can go to track days... wing and spliter are not first priority atm. Also planning to get nistune and maybe some ITBs for the KA.... definetely s14 subframe, frp doors, hatch, lexan, new windshield, and basic cage for now... also hopefully soon the manual rack will be done. So overall dropping more weight...

                        So yeah i got a bunch of plans for the year.... and hopefully primarily lots of track days.. im pretty hyped up and sad as there are already a few starter track days but the car is not road ready
