don't do the wing yet. your car is too stock (exterior) to put the wing on without looking like a silly ricer. after a kit (gp sports is dope for that car) maybe. I would seriously look into one that will be more functional than the primered civic apc wing. just tryin to help a brother out......

i hear yall talkin bout body kits, ect.

Im broke as ****. Im a college student who pays his tuition, car payments, car insurance, gas, with no help from parents cus i aint from a well off family.

I just want my car to look as slick as possible without spending mass amounts of money.

Im in Canada, so ya a kit would cost me like over a grand.. i obviously dont have that money..

so what im sayin is..

i want my car to look as slick as possible without rims or body kit..

what yall think

impossible?

I personally think aluminum spoilers are the worst kind out their... They just look kinda....tacky. A Type X wing from here: http://www.jspec.com/bodymods.html would look slick.

If you dont' want a wing anymore get some nice tires and some springs.

In order to look "slick," just remove the sucker. Then it'll look cleaner and "slicker."

I'd make it quicker before ricing it up with an aluminum wing. It's an underpowered car stock.

On a stock looking car most wings especially aluminuim wings dont work without a bodykit. One of the only wings that look good on a stock car would be a bomex wagan wing. I love that wing!

Stay away from the wing and spend the cash on something completely non-car related.

do you, but like mention b4 your car is too stock for a wing. It also depends on the BK as well. I.E you GP sports S13 body kit can do with and or w/o a wing. other kits like the type x dosen't need it. it also depends on which wing you want that cheap APC shat or the c-west? oh yeah b4 the wing go with the power first so atleast you'l have a somewhat logical argument for having the wing. and hope the guy is a moran i.e guy: whats up what that big as wing you: it help prevents downforce on my carguy: yeah but your dosent look that fastyou: i have (kade-t pushing about 300hp OR srdet pushing 300) and i go to the track alot and run a few laps.

I understand how everyone is saying that engine first looks second and I agree with it. BUT I completely understand where Kevin613 is coming from, not everyone is blessed with money and even if you do work other stuff holds you back from getting to spend the money on cars, if he wants to get a wing and is asking people in this forum for some opinion ON what wings will look good NOT asking if he should get a wing on his stock car, the least people can do is give him some links instead of judging him..... just my 2 cents..

Kaioshin1982: we all ready got a sticky for that so i don't think we need to post up any sites. he asked for our opinions so we gave it to him. We were just adding our two cents in.

jmillheiser: too ricey what wayyy toooo ricey? who about this for rice http://www.autoimaging.com/gps...g.jpg yeah i know it's an S15 but also how about this http://www.djelektrique.com/ca...l.jpg yeah i had to bring her back in it again. (if i only had $6000)

I dunno.. to each his own i guess.. some wings look good (to me) and some dont. everyone seems to have a different definition of rice..

Wing on a 4-door economy car is rice.Wing on a 2-door sports car.. it depends

That s15 looks good with that aluminum wing because it is a high quality gt wing with a carbon fiber blade and not some apc getto wing. Also because it has a very nice gp sports bodykit to complete the look. On a stock car you will look like all the other rice out there. Go with one of the wings I mentioned earlier. Mainevent212 Ive always liked the Kouki s14 wing or a bomex wangan wing for an s14.

YES!! but to be honset IDK. but then on another not, APR sells carbon fiber wings for $1200, C-West for $2000, yashio factory and etc. all are in the $1500 and up range. Now Arospeed comes out with their "carbon fiber" wings for 250-300. dosen't that strike you as fishy, strange, shaddy (you can fill the rest) get my drift??
