Stillen Pricing on SEMA Coupe Aero Parts

[kidatheart]

I did a quick look to see if this was already posted and didn't see it but if it was and I missed it, sorry for the dupe...

I got an e-mail today from Stillen that the parts on the Stillen Atlima Coupe are now available for sale as follows:

$219.38 roof wing$228.11 front lip spoiler$219.38 deck wing

They are up on the site now as well.

[SHIFT_COUPE]

Awesome

The front lip is on special for that price too. Introductory I'm assuming.

so guys, roof wing, yes or no?

[noshift]

will the front lip fit the sedans? as far as i know and can see, the front bumper are the same on the 2 and 4 doors.

[SHIFT_2.5S]

so guys, roof wing, yes or no?

No. It's a FWD car and you don't need any more down force on the rear wheels.

[mcheddadi]

No. It's a FWD car and you don't need any more down force on the rear wheels.

not for function man! duh! i'm talking about style, I'm no rally racer

you think people buy powerful cars because they absolutely need the power? no, its one part because they can and others can't, and another part because its cool to have the higher end model. its not like I'm gonna tow stuff around , or in the case of the roof wing, need additional downforce, If I just tilt my moon roof i'll generate more downforce than that roof wing

oh and by the way, what you said about it being a FWD car so it doesn't need any more weight on the back wheels, that's so wrong, the weight distribution is 67/33, so its a lot more heavy in the front and will tend to Understeer a lot more in extreme racing condition, so adding more down force to the back is the best idea to be closer to the 50/50 ratio

but anyways like I said, I'd buy the roof wing for style more than for function anyways

Just ordered my front lip spoiler but I'm with mcheddadi, not sold on the rear roof spoiler. I like the way it flows with the Stillen rear deck spoiler but I already have a spoiler on my rear deck and am not sure how it will look. If it were special priced (maybe $150) like the front, I might pick it up but not paying full price for something I'm not sure of. (hint hint stillen) On another note, I wish they would have focused more on getting their 3.5 exhaust out before these...

What color are you gonna paint it? and when you get it, take tons of PICS! lol

[notaverage]

So you have to paint the spoilers yourself?? Thats expensive...

[SHIFT_CR]

around how much would it cost to paint the front lip? i think the roof wing looks nice, but im not gonna pay over 2 bills for that, more like 1 bill.

Absolutely! If you can find a garbage truck, or maybe a Kia that wants to race, that extra downforce will really help. "Extreme racing conditions" don't apply to a front heavy front wheel drive "wannabe" like the Altima coupe. STYLE, that's the thing, that's the reason to own the coupe, and the reason to get the wing. That, and some neon lights...

What a HATER

Jealous of the coupe, LoL

If I had wanted a coupe, I would have bought one. I would have paid cash, just like I did for my sedan. But since I have an IQ over 99, and no need at all to try to impress the folks in the ghetto, I bought a car that made sense.

[SHIFT_2.5S]

Sorry mcheddadi,

I was speaking from a practical standpoint. Yes, you get understeer and it would clear some of that with weight distribution, but you're also getting much more power to the front wheels so the top roof spoiler will not solve that problem as much around corners (especially not as much relative to a regular rear spoiler). As for aesthetic looks, I would say that doesn't look too bad. Personally, I'm not too fond of any spoilers (roof or trunk) on the coupe.

Here are some online tests you can take:1. http://www.iqtest.com/2. http://web.tickle.com/tests/uiqflash/3. http://www.intelligencetest.com/

If you buy a car just to hide from people in your 'ghetto', rather than to have personal pleasure, that's your problem. IQ has nothing to do with it.

You've just won a 1 week ban.

If you come back I suggest adjusting your attitude as it won't be put up with here.

[Serkle K]

Hey mcheddadi, I dont remember but, do you have your windows tinted? if so, how's the dot matrix on the rear windshield? if you do have it tinted, and if you can see it's not sitting right on that part, then I would say go for it, if not, then I would have to ask if you think the rear windshield is "too big" cause for looks the roof wing would slightly change that... Either way it's definitly something to consider... Along with that front lip... Definitly like that one better then the white one posted in the SEMA thread... if you could photoshop it, you might get a better idea if it's a good look for your ride...

[mcheddadi]

I didn't need to photoshop it, they added a high resolution photo of the roof wing:

and no I don't have my windows tinted , I prefer it that way so I can see in the dark also, I don't think the roof wing will make the rear window look smaller, it just give it that subaru look that , I don't know, kinda looks cool

[2brian0]

To answer your question mcheddadi (now that the rear roof wing debate has died down), I have a black coupe so it will be black. I'm the one that posted the original thread on painting the chrome mustache. Since I painted that, I also had my headlights (in addition to my tails) smoked and just recently had my full windsheild tinted 38% (which by the way makes my window that were already 5% even darker). While my mustache turned out pretty good, I'm going to let the pro's handle painting my front lip and installing it. I also figure that while it's in the shop, I'm going to have them redo my mustache and paint my honeycomb black. My only debate at this point is whether I should have them paint the front hamburger black as well or leave it for contrast. I say this only because if I had my way, I would replace the whole grill with a clean black one without an emblem but since that isn't an option yet...Oh and I will definitely post pics.

serkle k.....good point about the dot matrix and tint.....the only place mine looks funky (and you have to look hard to see it) is at the top where the wing would cover it up. You've given my something else to consider....Still just don't know how it will flow with the spoiler I already have. Too bad I have no skills when it comes to photoshop.

[Mr.Coupe]

Wow I was waitting for that stuff to come out to the market. I will call first thing tommorow morning.

Could u post pictures of ur tinted head lights while the headlights are on?i want to know what it looks like while the head lights are on espeically with HIDs, i dont wanna lose to much light vision by tinting it

pics would be GREAT thanks!

[2brian0]

Not opposed to posting a picture but I'm not sure it will give a fair representation of what it looks like. I have HIDs on mine and it did dim them a little but nothing drastic. Definitely didn't take away from their color. I got them done at a local shop, didn't order a kit. The guy used 3m vinyl but I don't know what it was specifically. I'll see what I can do about a pic.

Just drove my car at night for the first time since getting the windshield done. It's a little dimmer than maybe I'd like it to be but nothing that I won't be able to get used to. During the day it's awesome!

As soon as I get my front lip on, I will definitely post pics...should be about a week or so by the time it comes in the mail and I have it installed.

[Serkle K]

Honestly, it's a bit of a tough call, but then again I would have to see it in person to give you a better "real" opinion. For me, I always have to see it in person to get a much better perspective... usually pictures are ok, but I have found (and especially with the A/C) that no picture does it justice, I always seem to like it more and more when I see it in person, so if I were able to see the roof wing in person, I'd have a better idea. But thats just me... I'm weird like that
