I want an honest opinion on this wing I purchased thru Ebay its not installed at the moment and dont know If it will or not... Be honest Please Thank You! You guys can even give me advice on what type of wing to look for if this one does not meet an exciting exterior look for show and autocrossing on the side... Thank You!

No, I hate hate HATE any wing that:
a) doesn't contour to the body
b) doesn't match the cars color

So I don't like it, sorry. The stock turbo wing looks great IMHO, or the low-rise wing (can't think of the name) that looks just like the turbo wing but arch is about half.
 
I personally - don't like it. Coz this is only wing picture.

If u can put the final/target picture of the wing with your car (whole car), it might give u better impression. :|
 
LOL I knew it wouldnt go with it right Thanks Guys, What should I look for??? Sorry about the picture I did have it with the whole car but it could only be 700x700 and mines was nearly 3000x3000 sorry about that so i trimmed it down. I dont want the Turbo wing what else would you guys recommend??? :dsm: :cool:
 
aluminum wings that stick out that far over a car are the stupidest invention ever thought up for a few reasons:

1.On a normal, daily drive car, that has a top travel speed over a little over 100 MPH it will have ZERO EFFECT WHATSOEVER.
2.The fact that wings and spoilers are meant to use air travel to push the BACK OF THE CAR DOWN, on a FWD car it is COMPLETELY USELESS, and if did anything whatsoever, would ELMINATE TRACTION instead of incrse it (of course u have a gsx which is semi RWD, so in ur case a nice looking spoiler wouldnt be as bad as a civic or integra with one.)
3.Aluminum sticking up from the back NEVER looks good on any car EVER IMHO, i have seen tons and tons of show cars with actual paint jobs and proper exterior mods to make it match, AND IT JUST STILL DOESNT LOOK RIGHT.

4 and most important of all. THEY ARE JUST PLAIN UGLY , it looks like some sort of rip off from a REAL drag racing wing that is actually necessary when travelling 300MPH with RWD.
 
I know I know, personally I have been thinking of putting the stocker back on for that matter or just plain eliminating it but dont know if i do that would it be bad for going over 120mph... hmmm I dont know which is why i ask for opinion and I want to Thank You for yours it is what I wanted to hear and not a "Hey it looks good" type of thing you know, Thanks so much.

not to be mean and all, but id sell it. It looks like a park Bench that i sit on :barf: . Its to Fast and Furious style. Get the GSX wing that stuff is hot.
 
About 99% of ppl on this site hate aluminum wings..add me to that 99% :thumbdown

A first gen looks better wingless :thumb:
 
Put a spoiler on the back not a wing. The spoilers are what come stock with the car. A turbo spoiler would look nice.
I get tired of hearing people calling them wings.

put on a turbo WING(spoiler) bahahaha just kidding redmachine
 
used to have one of those, got rid of it after 6 months. get a drift or wnagan spoiler, at least I think that what they call it
 
Totally agree wit everyone else here. Those wings ( spoilers ) look just plain BAD.. Dont ruin a nice looking vehicle by putting that thing on it. :barf:
 
so does the duct tape come with it too??? i agree with everyone else..... :thumbdown dont bolt a park bench to your hatch.
 
yeah, i say take it off. I had one and i would get stared at by cops all day. I had it on for a few months, and got a ticket. Not for the wing but for speeding. I was going with the flow of traffic but i honestly think the wing is what got me looking suspicous to the cop. I took it off and had all of the holes filled and painted. Check out my photos for more of an idea of what i had and now have. :thumb: :talon:
 
doo doo :thumbdown

stick to a stock spoiler, or the wings west three piece mid wing, kind of a combination between the 95 and 97
 
You guys can hate the wing, but how can you hate the duct tape clearly accenting the curves of his trunk there... LOVE THE TAPE!
