What do you like.
I put an front bodypist from an tamiya tc car to the rear brace and it go through the wing and then close it whit an bodyclip.
Now it wont come loose the wing.

Neat Idea!

I've had that same problem over the years. bending the wire didn't help. I finally ended up getting some kyosho rear wing mount and it mounts B4-style. I left the body mount and simply cut the back of the body off and left it there, heavy duty velcro for the body.

I did the wing wire bend, helps a bit but honestly I went for the el cheapo solution and just use some clear tape on the top when I go out driving. I do have some B4 wing mounts and a rear shock tower from RC Carbon Works but too lazy to do all that work :lol:

But your idea is a very clean and elegant solution!
