Nigel, It looks like there is interest in the wing but we need a price for the group buy. It might be a good idea to create a group buy in the buy/sell section to attract interest from the 250/350 guys. Please follow up with us and let us know, thank you.

No, it is for performance, if you track your car or drive your car fast, you will feel that downforce for sure!
Even the Japanese guys comment on our Facebook page regarding this wing is functional when he went to the track.

I'm honestly surprised at how much I'm digging this SARD LSR wing. Since I plan on keeping my track-tuned IS350 for a very long time, I just might commit myself to this...

Potential buyers of this wing just take into account if you're adding rear down force you MAY have to balance out with more front down force. When I upgraded my race car from a fixed rear wing to an adjustable taller wing my front splitter was too long so I had to dial it back to get things more balanced.

I think the weight of the ISF itself is enough down force in the front.

It shouldn't be a problem.
Because the LSR Wing is a clip on type.
You should be able to clip it onto your carbon trunk, as long as the shape of the trunk is similar to the OEM one.
(I have never try it though. It is just my guess.)

Do you have evidence that there is enough downforce generated in the front to compensate for the lift in the front that is created by the extra downforce in the rear? And what MPH is this done at, and with what level of downforce adjustment on the wing? What are the downforce numbers of each adjustment at 100mph and top speed?

Check out how the weight of the ISF is "enough down force in the front" in this example of why too much downforce in the rear without proper downforce in the front can result in dangerous lift:
