Description
The Verus Engineering V1X Swan Neck Rear Wing Kit is engineered specifically for the G82 BMW M4 to significantly increase rear downforce, improve high-speed stability, increase driver confidence on track, and help reduce lap times. Designed to work with the factory trunk, the V1X provides substantial aerodynamic performance while maintaining the structural strength required to handle high downforce loads.
Using advanced aerodynamic analysis software throughout the research and development process, Verus Engineering optimized the V1X airfoil for maximum performance. Additional Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) analysis was used to ensure the wing receives adequate airflow when installed on the vehicle, works effectively with the front aerodynamic package, and delivers consistent real-world performance.
Verus Engineering developed the V1X using in-house vehicle scan data, resulting in a near-OEM fit and finish. The precision-engineered mounting system combines aerodynamic efficiency with the strength required for serious track use.
The V1X Rear Wing is an ideal upgrade for track-focused G82 BMW M4 builds that require a substantial increase in rear downforce to balance a significant front aerodynamic package, such as the Verus Engineering Front Splitter Kit.
V1X Wings are assembled per order and will ship within 5 business days from receipt of order unless otherwise specified.
Key Features
- Increased Rear Downforce: Designed to significantly increase rear aerodynamic load for improved stability, cornering confidence, and track performance.
- Optimized Airfoil: Developed using the ANSYS Adjoint Solver and refined through wind tunnel testing.
- Swan Neck Mounting: Uses aerodynamic swan neck uprights designed to provide a strong combination of structural strength and clean airflow.
- Larger Wing Element: The V1X generates higher amounts of rear downforce due to its increased size compared with the UCW wing element.
- High Downforce at Low Angle of Attack: Capable of generating more downforce than the Swan Neck UCW Rear Wing at a substantially lower angle of attack, with a comparison of 2 degrees versus 12 degrees.
- CFD Validated: Developed and refined using advanced Computational Fluid Dynamics analysis and real-world testing.
- Factory Trunk Compatible: Designed to mount directly to the factory trunk while handling substantial aerodynamic loads.
- Near-OEM Fit and Finish: Developed using in-house scan data for precise vehicle-specific fitment.
- Front Aero Compatibility: Designed to balance significant front aerodynamic systems such as the Verus Engineering Front Splitter Kit.
- Adjustable Aerodynamics: Capable of operating and generating downforce across a 0–15-degree angle of attack range.
- Track-Focused Design: Developed specifically for the G82 BMW M4 enthusiast seeking substantial additional rear-end downforce.

Aerodynamic Development
The Verus Engineering V1X was specifically designed for the G82 BMW M4 enthusiast who wants a substantial increase in rear-end downforce. The wing operates across a 0–15-degree angle of attack range, allowing the aerodynamic load to be adjusted to complement a variety of front aerodynamic configurations.
As part of the Verus Engineering Ventus 2 aerodynamic kit, the V1X Rear Wing can be combined with the associated front aero components to generate significant aerodynamic load, helping increase cornering speeds and reduce lap times.
The V1X was developed using both CFD analysis and real-world experimental testing. Verus Engineering reports strong correlation between its CFD data and physical testing, validating the aerodynamic development approach and the wing's performance.
