Verus Engineering VB UCW Rear Wing Kit - 2022+ Subaru WRX

The Verus Engineering VB UCW Swan Neck Rear Wing is a track-focused aero upgrade for the 2022+ Subaru WRX, engineered to significantly increase rear downforce, boost high-speed confidence, and reduce lap times. Designed to bolt directly to the OEM trunk and handle real aerodynamic loads, this gooseneck-style wing delivers serious performance with styling inspired by the 24 Hours of Nürburgring WRX.

Using state-of-the-art tools like ANSYS adjoint solver, FEA, and CFD, Verus optimized the airfoil and swan neck upright placement specifically for the VB chassis. In-house scan data ensures near-OEM fit and finish, while the swan neck design keeps the underside of the wing element clean for improved aerodynamic efficiency.

Key Features

• Swan Neck UCW Design: Uprights mount from above the wing element, improving airflow under the foil and echoing modern GT race car aero.
• Serious Downforce Capability: Capable of generating and withstanding 500+ lbs of rear downforce when paired with appropriate front aero.
• Optimized Airfoil: Profile developed using ANSYS adjoint solver and CFD for strong lift-to-drag (L/D) performance.
• CFD & FEA Validated: Uprights and mounts FEA’d for strength; wing and placement refined through CFD and real-world testing.
• OEM Trunk Mounting: Bolts to the factory trunk using included mounts, spacers, and sealing tape for a clean, integrated install.
• Track-Proven Balance: Designed to balance significant front aero packages, including Verus front splitters, as part of their Ventus 3 kit.

Why We Like It

This is the wing you choose when you are serious about aero grip and track performance. The swan neck layout not only looks like proper GT race car hardware but also offers functional advantages in efficiency and consistent downforce. Paired with front aero, it allows VB WRX owners to run more aggressive setups with confidence.

Angle of Attack & Tuning Range

The UCW Swan Neck Rear Wing is designed to operate from approximately 0 to 15 degrees angle of attack, giving you flexibility to dial in rear balance for different tracks, tire setups, and front aero configurations.

Science & Development

The UCW Swan Neck Rear Wing was created for VB WRX owners who demand meaningful rear-end downforce. As part of the Ventus 3 aerodynamic kit, it is intended to work alongside a properly sized front splitter to increase total vehicle downforce and corner speed.

Verus reports strong correlation between CFD and real-world test data, validating both the aero design and their development process. The result is a wing that behaves predictably at speed, helping reduce lap times while maintaining stability and driver confidence.

Installation Notes

• Designed to bolt to the OEM trunk; drilling is required for mounting the trunk bases and trunk stop assembly.
• Use the included hardware, spacers, and sealing tape to ensure proper spacing, sealing, and load distribution.
• Professional installation is recommended for accurate drilling, sealing, and torqueing.
• After installation, verify trunk operation, check clearances, and re-torque hardware after the first track session or heat cycle.

Production & Lead Time

• UCW wings are assembled per order and typically ship within 5 business days from order receipt, unless otherwise specified by Verus.

Compatibility & Disclaimers

Intended for use on the 2022+ Subaru WRX (VB) with a factory trunk. Permanent modifications (drilling) are required. Aerodynamic balance depends on the full vehicle setup, including front aero, suspension, alignment, and tires. Always confirm local regulations regarding exterior aero modifications for street-driven cars.
