I have been using both the front and rear Atomic Carbon towers for some time now and I did try using the 3Racing aluminum wing mount as well. I went back to using the stock plastic wing mounts for these reasons:
* The tower and wing mount combined are so rigid that my rear wings would get torn apart "very" quickly (since the wing had to absorb all the impact).
* I noticed the screws holding the rear tower in place would start to 'back out' and needed to be retightened once and a while (again because the tower and mount were so rigid). I was able to remedy this by using longer screws to mount the rear tower, but my wings would still get torn apart -way too fast-
I agree with everyone on the bling factor of the aluminum wing mount. I would rather use it if I could.. If there was only a way for it to absorb more shock and not tear the wings apart at the mounts.
