i understand and yeah appreciate the warning.

but truth be told, one reason for this thread is maybe someone knows of a wing that i just dont know of yet. and i may just love it. and if i do, it wouldnt really matter what other people say : ) As long as i love it. But that also means im not just gonna throw a wing im merely simply satisfied with.

But i am looking for something different than the sports spoiler.

and OP, i completely agree with your reasoning (i think the sports spoiler is ehh), and think you should just go for a big wing if thats what you really want.

you could always change it.

I'm asking for the Ings+1 this Christmas. I feel it's the best wing out there. Not to over the top. It is a little costly. But well designed IMO.

Alot of people can't get over wings for some reason. I see nothing wrong with them on our cars or any true sports cars for that matter. I like styling also. Even if you don't track, what's the big deal? That's why I choose the Ings wing, it's milder compared to the bigger ones. Which most who have the bigger wing see more than there share of track time. I'd have one of those if I tracked alot.

If a wing on a 330hp RWD sports cars is rice, then tell me what's not, because I cannot think of anything.

What's next? F1 cars are also rice because they have too many vents and deflectors and a huge frontal wing?

the arguement that a wing on a car regardless of whp when not being used is rice.

aka a wing on a car that never goes above 30mph... may have 600whp and its still unnecessary.

Does any one know if the seibon nismo spoiler is functional? Not the s type.... but the spoiler that looks similar to the one that comes on nismo Z's?

Not only do you get a nice looking wing but you also will never be without a place to eat your dinner

Dang, those are intense wings. I prefer just normal spoilers tbh.

I really like this one for the coupe.

When done right bigger spoilers can look awesome, but they can also look like trash when over done. In my little world of Time Attack it's all about function, and for some teams they have spoilers big enough to have thanks giving dinner on.

When it comes down to it's all about what you like. Your the one who has to look at it every day when you get into YOUR CAR. If your happy then thats all that matters and no one can take that from you.
