Should I go with or without the rice wing? Its been on since I got the car but Im thinking of removing it while im in the process of reworking the body. Not good pick but let me know. (It would be moulded in if i decide to keep it)

dude, is it a show car or racing ? Cuz, for show that wing sucks. 2. if your going to even put one on, you should make it look like it has a purpose. dont take it in a negative way...just trying to help.

It looks like it's kind of a gtr replica wing ??

imho, lose the wing for sure.. for some reason, s13s look so much better without them.. just a nice clean bootlid.. ala mine

Lose it. Plus bodykit and wheels while at it.

Sidekirts are fine though.

definately take the wing off. It does not flow with the lines of the car at all. In my opinion I would just shave the whole trunk and maybe get a different rear bumper setup. Just my 2 cents though

I would get rid of those things hanging off the sides of your rear bumper... and look what your exhaust did to your bumper, might want to extend that out or something?... wing would look okay if the rest of the car was stock IMO. but it doesn't work with that kit.. thing..

I say keep the wing because the rest of the bodykit is allriced out anyway... If your gonna go with rice, I say go riceall the way! Then again you could always just beat yourhead against a wall...

I know i am mean. But the rear valence is way to much...

Edit: Whats the front look like? The side skirts arent bad.

Burn the wing and rims, you are better off riding on spares.

i bought the car that way, no idea why now. wish to hell i wouldve gotten a stock 240 coupe without all the extra half inch of paint and started from there but its what i got. it used to be red and thats what color it has returned to after a week of scraping the paint in order to repaint(white with white pearl and a blue pearl design on the side idk what yet but i need to do something flashy to show what i can do...doing it all myself) as for the rims .... anyone want them? definately up for sale! and have been for a while.... i agree with the other 100 percent of you they blow!

Yeah and im definately going to mold the body kit in some so that it dosent look as bad but not completely to avoid cracking. Its Veilside by the way. Yeah after im finished ill post my final finished product to show how sexy it will be hah (hopefully)

the wing is better than the wheels. you can keep the wing (or get one that flows better) and just...just...make those wheels NOT exist man...

and get a metal plate for above your exhaust. you obviously need it man

cut the top section of the wing off, and keep the lower part that kinda looks like the M3 spoiler.

just my .02 cents
