OVERVIEW
The UCW Rear Wing is a great addition to your FK8 Honda Civic Type R to increase downforce significantly in the rear, increase confidence on track, and reduce lap times. Designed to work on the factory trunk, bolt on like stock, and handle the downforce well, the rear wing bolts on easily and improves performance this sports car can utilize on track.
Utilizing state-of-the-art analysis software during the R&D process, we optimized the airfoil for performance for the given build volume which is derived from the V1x Element. Further utilizing CFD, we ensured the rear wing sees adequate airflow while installed on the car and performs well.
During the design process; we utilized in-house scan data. This results in a product that features a near OEM fit and finish.
The UCW Rear Wing is the perfect addition to the track goer who requires a large bump in rear downforce to balance out a significant front aero package.
UCW Wings are assembled per order and will ship within 5 business days from receipt of order unless otherwise specified.

Science:
The Verus Engineering UCW Rear Wing was specifically designed for the Fk8 Honda CTR enthusiast who wants more rear-end downforce. The wing has the capability of operating and generating downforce from 0 to 15 degrees angle of attack. This allows the wing to balance out a variety of front aerodynamic kits. As part of our Ventus 3 aerodynamic kit, the rear wing, and aero kit adds a significant amount of downforce to the car to help reduce lap times and increase corner speed.
Our CFD data and our real-world experimental data match up quite well. The wing hit all the major goals we set forth to achieve first in our CFD simulations and then with our real-world testing. The strong correlation between CFD data and real-world testing validates both our CFD analysis approach and the wing’s performance.
