I love Do-Luck but I've never really been a fan of that wing. The other wing is significantly better. http://www.do-luck.com/sil/s14.html

the wing that daunt picked doesn't remind you of the old "terminator" style wings that used to be so popular? i'm trying to steer away from the combat look....know what i'm saying? i mean, i do like it....but still. i want the slick approach. THanks for responding guys, i didn't think anyone would respond to it seeing as it sat there with 0 replies for 2 hrs. ;) lata. ~Scott

I prefer the more subtle look of the GP sports lip spoiler... it's classy...

hey freak, i do kinda like that wing..very nice. but i also had some others in mind along with the doluck wing....the reason why i'm so partial to that particular wing is because of the fiberglass trunk..(i like).

the other wings i'm checkin out are the bomex slick back style wing...there are two of them i'm not sure the code, but its the one that extends longer off the back of the trunk. then there is the c-west wing that looks similar to the GP wing freak showed me...

Both of those are not bad, ive always been under the opinion that the s14 looks nicer with no wing/ spoiler. Although i like the wing that SRdS14showed first a little better, plus a fiberglass trunk would be nice to have (every little bit helps). How much does that thing run?

Have you seen a picture of it from the front? I dunno, it might just be me but I don't find it overly aesthetically pleasing. : )

I have to agree with big jon, wingless looks better on just about any car to me. Dauntt's pick is alright, I'm not a fan of the "combat" look either. Fiberglass is always nice, but that wing isn't what I'd choose. Either way, it's just a wing, go with what you think looks good.

Wow that wing kicks major @$$. I really like it when a company's designers really pull some **** out of their *** instead of just going kind of along with what everybody else is doing stylistically. Anyone know if there is a similar wing for a fastback?

I dunno about any choices I have heard "both the do-lucks and the spoilerless choices". I agree that I want something different but that spoiler is just too straight lined for me considering the smooth sexy lines of the s14....know what I mean. Ashtheticly I just think it kills the lines of the s14.

Black240, thats nice too, it looks very agressive. Your right dauntless, the Do-luck looks much different (and not as cool) from the front. I guess they all look ok as long as its not 2 feet tall and made from aluminum. I still insist wingless is the way to go.

i really dig those DO-LUCK aero side skirts on the late model 97-98s.

i think the best looking wing on the 240s is the R33 GTR style its real subtle, not sure who makes it (or makes a quality one for that matter)
