As of late, I've been in the market for a nissan. S13 verts are my favorite, but they dont look as good as hatches when it come's to gettin' sideways. So for my project car, im more than likely gonna be getting a hatch, and any good drift hatch needs a big a** wing.

would someone please enlighten me as to what kind of wing this is? or maybe direct me to a similar carbon fiber wing the would fit the hatch?

:slap: this is very incorrect. Buy your car first then worry about making look like it can fly to the moon.

Please tell us why you think a drift car needs a huge wing? More than likely you will doing it/if you do it as a hobby. Which leads me to think you will be on a budget, and on a budget you will want to first: make a car purchase, then worry about how it performs, then looks if you can swing it. Also, more than likely you won't be at a speed that would deem the wing necessary for any kind of effect, which leads to it being an expensive, nonfunctional piece of aluminum.

Get the car, get some suspension work, get some power.

The goal is to have enough lift to break the rear out. :bigthumb:

GT Wings CAN look cool and they CAN serve a very important purpose for drifting. I don't think "every drift car" needs one, but I think they are neat. Judging by who's car that is and what kind of aero he's always had, I'm going to say that's an Origin wing.

I don't think drift cars are "Famous for erectors sets". Civics, yes. Low and lots of neg camber and it sounds like we're talking normal drifting trends.
