Wing? One of those table that sits on top of the trunk?
Don't get it lol.

If you really wish to get spoiler, go with OEM for clean look.

DONT DO IT..... Only certain 7thgen's look decent with wings... The only decent wings that come to mind are both the Wings West wings.. Kaminari, Tsunami, and OEM..... other than that no aluminum...

haha "wing" sounds rice but i think a spoiler isn't rice as long as if flows well with the look of the car. aluminum wings don't really flow well with the civic. stupid f&f.

A good looking wing, sounds like a oxymoron. Go OEM or no spoiler.

I actually don't like the OEM wings, there are plenty of good wings out there, you just have to be tasteful about it.

OEM is nice. But there is nothing with doing something different just as long as you like it. I had a wing on my car, and it looked really nice, it went with the style of my car. Very few people complained, but i didnt care because i bought the wing for my taste, not theirs. All and all just do what you feel. I will admit not all wings belong on 7th gen rides. And there are some wings that look great on our cars too.

But some look decent... I myself wish my 05 EX came with a OEM Spoiler... I think the EX should come standard with one.

EDIT - SPELLING

a spoiler is not a wing. thats the point. a spoiler is generally designed to cut air and maybe reduce drag, but now they are more for looks than anything. a wing is used to generate downforce.

Your right. Thanks for the correction.

BTW Torneo the wing looks good. It fits pretty well on your car.
