Saw the non-stock small black front spoiler as well, likely of carbon fiber. I'm kinda surprised by the need for big rear wing as one would think the car's aero design alone would suffice ala' the orginal GT's. Maybe the track's layouts lessened the need for minimal top end drag (no Mulsanne like 230 mph charge) and instead required max downforce.

I yield to no one in my admiration of Ford GTs. With that in mind I'm tempted to get ahold of that outfit and offer them the loan of an old barn door I have leaning up against the wall...
