Don't you think its a big improvement from the even bigger APR GT 1 wing to the smaller APR v-spec??

Your ride looks good!! How many inch drop is that? Also, how is your ride? Is it really bumpy and rough??

the before and after pics arent that big of a difference IMO... the wing would match a body kit...... something more agressive like the blitz or bc.... not my taste, but its nice...

It's a 2" drop with eibach springs. It used to look lower until I got the 17's...The ride is perfect, really smooth. The spoiler actually looks alright in person.

I was thinking the same thing. Whats the deal with the miss-matched wheels? It would look better if you picked on and went with it IMHO. I personally like the ones on the rear of the car.

Another thing I would suggest...

If you still have it in your car, get rid of the fire extinguisher that is mounted on the passenger side piller. If you have it there for looks, I would definately get rid of it. If you really have it in the car for safety reasons, at least mount it in an easily accesable out of sight location.

get new wheels and a body kit and the wing will look better

The reason I have two stock rims in the front is cause someone slashed one of my front tires and that was the only day I could get a hold of the digi cam...The fire extinguisher is long gone, I think I sold it to someone on this site.

The wing tells me your still H.S.

The fact that you bought an automatic tells me your not into speed!

Stupid noob.... not everyone is into speed so whats the point? The wing would look better with a kit and some other stuff so how does that say he is in HS... i know people that are on this board with a wing like that and they are not in high school..... dumb ass

so what, are you gonna sue his ass? I mean, dont get me wrong, i think his car looks like sheit, but I respect that fact that it looks like he takes good care of it.

I know a lot of people that aren't in HS that have that wing

Where do you race out of curiosity? What if this guy doesn't autocross? What if he is not cool with streetracing?

You have made some pretty stupid comments recently, you may want to watch what you say. Believe me, I am not the only person who noticed

ok you do know that your car is FWD right? so a wing does nothing for your car. Why would you need downforce on the back?

well dumbass, just an FYI, if you were traveling at high speeds and you had no downforce in the rear, your car may tend to get ass happy, FWD or not.

Also, we all know he didn't buy the wing because he wanted downforce, he liked the look of it. He has an auto GT, not to mention probably no one would reach the speeds that downforce would be a factor in any car, FWD or RWD legally or safely.

I have already said that I think his car looks like sheit, but do you really think you are telling him something he doesn;t know by sayin his wing doesn't help? Do you think you are making yourself look smart or something becaus eyou can spout off a line that you have heard somewhere else about downforce not being effective on a FWD car?

geez some of you guys are harsh. I know he asked for opinions.. but he didn't ask you to like it.

Its not my style.. well it would be fine without altezza's and if it had a body kit to go with the wing. He's obviously going for a more showy look... and thats perfectly fine.

My best advice... throw a body kit on it and you'll be set.

well thanks for the reply guys either they be positive OR negative. No offense was taken at all. Except for the guy that thinks im in H.S. you can go **** yourself. I love my car and enjoy driving it no matter what. But I will take the comments into consideration and maybe change a couple things...

hey, possibly the RMM wing. Its bigger than stock if you want something like that, and has a carbon fiber insert. The whole aluminum wing thing just seems a bit overkill to me, just my opinion.

I like the car. Looks good to me except for the mismatched wheels but you already explained that. The wing isn't my flavor but if you like it then keep it on the car.

i know that if i get my car up to 120 or so and hit a bump or something, it feels like the whole back-end of the car is just floating. I don't like that feeling at all and eventually, there is going to be a functional wing put on there for that sole purpose. If the dude, wants a wing, he can have a freakin wing. It's not your car. If you don't like it, don't do it to your car. The guy kindly asked your opinions, use a little courtesy when you answer him. Crap like this would make me never want to post pics on this site. Some of you flamers can be freakin harsh. Grow up.
