Description
The Verus Engineering P10 Rear Wing for the FK8 Honda Civic Type R was developed from the ground up to deliver significant rear-end downforce while maintaining aerodynamic efficiency for both street enthusiasts and track-day drivers. Verus Engineering started with a clean-sheet approach, creating its own airfoil profile using the ANSYS Adjoint Solver to optimize the wing for a strong balance of downforce, efficiency, and reduced drag.
Designed specifically around the factory FK8 rear wing mounting system, the P10 Rear Wing bolts directly to the OEM uprights in the same manner as the factory wing element, allowing the original mounting structure to be retained. This provides a straightforward installation while maintaining a clean, factory-integrated appearance.
The carbon fiber wing element also reduces approximately 2 lbs of weight compared to the OEM wing component, helping reduce weight while adding aerodynamic performance.
During development, Verus Engineering used OEM vehicle scan data to create the wing profile and ensure precise fitment. The design underwent CFD validation and optimization both before and while installed on the vehicle, allowing the P10 to achieve its intended aerodynamic performance in real-world conditions.
The Verus Engineering P10 Rear Wing is designed for FK8 owners who want additional rear downforce for improved high-speed stability and track performance without excessively increasing drag, negatively impacting fuel economy, or significantly compromising straight-line speed.

Science
The Verus Engineering P10 Rear Wing was specifically developed for the FK8 Civic Type R enthusiast seeking additional rear-end downforce without sacrificing excessive aerodynamic efficiency.
Verus Engineering developed a proprietary airfoil profile using the ANSYS Adjoint Solver and then subjected the design to CFD validation and optimization. The wing was designed to generate meaningful rear downforce while maintaining a favorable lift-to-drag ratio.
Real-world testing was also used to validate the CFD development process. The results showed strong correlation between the predicted aerodynamic performance and the performance observed during vehicle testing, allowing the P10 Rear Wing to meet its intended goals for track-day and street performance.
Installation
The P10 Rear Wing is designed as a direct replacement for the factory wing element and bolts to the OEM rear wing uprights. This allows the factory mounting structure to remain in place while upgrading the aerodynamic performance of the rear wing.
Verus Engineering provides installation documentation and guidance to assist with installation.
