there IS a reason they don't make altezzas for a mr2, but nooo, they have to graft integra altezzas on it!!!

Actually, even though they're altezzas, they don't look too bad. I understand that it's the TRD widebody kit (which is fckgwing) badass, but they actually "fill up" the wideboy rear end pretty good. If I was going to go ahead and do that, I probably would have gone and put the jaguar-style altezzas in it instead.

As long as they were the GSR or ITR tails. I really hate the look of those tails with the amber turn signals in them.

hey man I like MY ricer wing ok!



BTW: Since I roll with no seats to the track I need the wing to keep my back end stable at 100+ mph, at 120mph you can actually feel the rear lower.

Um sadly no I really do have that same wing. Toyota uses that wing on all the cars that have the action package.

well hell, lets just call the whole f-1 crews and everyone else in cart and all the toyota/trd sponsored race cars rice too while you are at it



some spoilers i do tolerant, especially that pic, that spoiler is actually probably slower than our oem spoiler, it looks big, because the car's small

and it looks like a real bad angel for the spoiler
