What carbon fiber wing to buy??

[MrBoost]

My car is FINALLY about to come out of the body shop......the color of the car is now a pewter / dark silverish-grey color.....it has the blitz kit, low sides, a VIS CF hood, and a CF front diffuser (wing that goes underneath the front bumper).....so I want to keep the whole CF theme going with the wing.....what do you guys think?? Whats the best looking CF wing?? Right now I am thinking of the veilside GT Wing type III, or the GT-3 wing from factorytuned.com when it becomes available. Any other ideas/pics?? Thanks!

[MrBoost]

whats wrong with the spoiler you have now???\

and what are you gonna do with it ?

 

[MrBoost]

thanks for the link.......yeah, that wing isnt too bad at all, I wonder if you can adjust the angle of the wing?? Thats the only thing I dont like about it, it looks like the forward angle of the wing is too extreme for my taste.....just IMHO......

My old wing? I'm gonna sell it....it's a nice wing, I just want a carbon fiber one now to match everything else.....the old wing looks just like this one, (except it's painted red!)......

Mr.Boost your car sounds tight. I love all that carbon fiber. It is just my style. I think you should look for a good deal on some carbon fiber wings these places. a.s.a.p.

www.ebaymotors.com type in a search Carbon fiber wings also check the in titles/descriptions option. They have good prices.

www.importfan.com

Car sounds good. Good luck.

 

[MrBoost]

right on, thanks JJay...........maybe liking carbon fiber is a NE Ohio thing??? .....I was born in Youngstown and still got lots of family there!! Anyways, thanks for the tips! I've been keeping an eye on eBay.......I'll watch closer!!

Thanks for the great ideas guys....keep em coming!!

Love that Carbon Fiber

this is the one i eventualy plan on getting... it is a bit pricy but it works... there is no making fun of this wing, but it will be a crown jewel on a powerful car... no looks before speed here... although the falken one is cool too...

 

[vertGST]

you can never have to much carbon fiber

didint you learn your lesson last time???

 

[focusedrage]

no, importfan isnt big on discriptions, im gonna guess about 7 or 8 " under the wing? donno it is like 1200 bucks, which is a shame, but i think it is probly worth it, if your getting into road racing hardcore

Yes which is why I want something smaller this time and CF.

 

[focusedrage]

what happend last time?

 

[MrBoost]

yeah, what hapened last time L2RTSiAWD?? Get stuck with the latest and greatest "grocery-cart" style direct from NOPI or sumthin??

.............NO HIGH SPOILERS FOR ME EITHER!!!!!!!!!!!

Thats sort of why I like the Veilside one............you can select which stands you want, and they have a specific "low" stand. That aBflug wing that is pictured up above is nice.........it doesnt look too high at all.........what the heck is availability on aBflug?? Anyone know where else to get it besides importfan.com?? there HAS to be someone else in the U.S. that can get the stuff.....

You're old wing>you're hair

 

[focusedrage]

yeah what vielside on... the thing is strait wings onyl look good on some cars, the gt ones usualy are swept forward like that and with the curves of a 2g, that abflug or falken, or what no will fit, and no one can make fun of it, its not a parkbench, its a racing wing

I dont know the direct webpage, but you can see the wing this way

http://www.veilside.com/veilsideusa/frames.html
click on "products"
then "Aero-fashion"
then "continue"
then "GT Wing"

I am looking at the GT Wing Type III

it is the bottom wing on the left (mounted on the bronze looking trunk)

BUT the "Low Type" stands are actually on the middle car to the left (blue trunk).

I know of only one Eclipse with a veilside wing (he has the GT type I and low stands).
I was at the tuner bash last year in Daytona Beach, FL and saw the car. It looked sweet. Check out his ride...........

What do you guys think about how the wing looks???

 

[focusedrage]

hmm i actualy think its not that cool, not swept forward enough for me and it hangs out off the car too much, also the picture you linked is of a hum hoo car, its like a gs or some thing with a blitz kit, i mean im all for making the most of what you have but.... eh whatever. i wish these wings werent so expensive, hmm carbon fiber is that way i guess
