RL1924 · 06-28-2009, 05:30 PM

So just got my wing on the other day figured id share pics, I wanted some thing like OEM but just with a little more flare think its pretty subtle exactly what I was looking for, Crappy pics from my phone but they work

J'sS2K · 06-28-2009, 05:33 PM

Where's the wing?

RL1924 · 06-28-2009, 05:37 PM

I guess spoiler trunk lip i dunno what you call it lol

I guess its subtle enough lol

MutantCheese · 06-28-2009, 05:42 PM

Is that the veilside spoiler?

RL1924 · 06-28-2009, 05:44 PM

Replica but yea got it for 1/2 the price

J'sS2K · 06-28-2009, 05:46 PM

What do you think of this wing...I personally think it's rice!

RL1924 · 06-28-2009, 06:08 PM

Me too but he has a nice car lol, Its really just kinda crazy tracking maybe, but hey some people love it so...who knows haha

Neil · 06-28-2009, 06:11 PM

I think it looks nice RL .....classy !

JDMzimbo · 06-28-2009, 06:51 PM

Nice man, did you paint it yourself like the lip? I actually like the big wing, it makes the s2k look like a real time attack car.

RL1924 · 06-28-2009, 07:07 PM

Nah didnt have any more paint left and autobody guy sprayed it for me dirt cheap if i did the body work so worked out being as much as if i painted it my self

Nasty Habits C.C. · 06-28-2009, 07:36 PM

Yeah i think that big wing is up a lil too high! Maybe one size smaller would look alot better but ive always been a fan of wings rather then lip spoilers!

RL1924 · 06-28-2009, 07:39 PM

ya.. Imo leave the bench chairs to civics

The guys that I know/knew that raced told me that the leading edge of the wing had to be 12-13 inches above the trunk line for them to be fully functional (downforce) in medium-speed turns. So, that wing may work very well as it sits.

I totally agree i think that wing is probably great for tracking your car, but not eveyone that owns it is probably tracking it. But to each there own, I'm not one to hate on peoples car that is unless they have lambo doors on an S

Friday I drove by a used car dealer that had 6, yes 6, brand new Dodge Chargers with lambo doors up front and they were all open sticking way up in the air.

nice car but the wing looks like a shopping cart handle!!! hey to each his own....

Kit2k · 06-28-2009, 11:10 PM

nice spoiler RL very classy IMO. I like it.

Nasty Habits C.C. · 06-29-2009, 09:34 AM

Question....Does that small lil wing from the original car on top have any affect on the car??? Or is it just there for looks???

RL1924 · 06-29-2009, 10:21 AM

Eh, id say looks but Im no expert it does sit up more than expected, if it got put in one of those wind tunnels Im sure it would have some kind of down force but sure not as much as others.

RayYay · 06-29-2009, 10:28 AM

Nice man, I want to get the same veilside replica. Did you have to use double sided tape?

Very nice choice RL!! Looks good!

JOECHY · 06-29-2009, 03:56 PM

Looks good RL - very tasteful.

The blue car on the other hand is too much in my opinion. The body kit, wing etc.... way too much.
