About the wing...

When you are driving, when you hit around 50 miles per hour the wing levels out flat just like any other Aluminum wing. I dont see whats so bad about it...its not that heavy, its not ricey, and how come you like all the TFATF cars with their huge *** wings...I really could care less. Thanks for all the comments though. Also...i got sliders for my sparcos, I'm having them installed next week on Tuesday. Then people will be able to get in and out.

I must say i notice a huge difference in acceleration now with my header, exhaust, and CAI.

Cheers,

Perhaps a smaller version of the wing would appeal to people more?

You seriously need to calm down. I think the wing is [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-puke.gif[/IMG] and my car is stock exterior wise. I am sorry I am not able to emulate your car because I don't get all my parts paid for me. Learn to take criticsm a little better and maybe people wouldn't flame as much. Your car is nice besides the wing, but your attitude for someone who has been through as much as you have is kind of surprising. BTW:

Like the car, everything looks good but you do not want to have that wing on there because downforce on automatic 130ish hp FWD car = very very bad. Not kidding that is going to pull the front wheels up thus reducing your front wheel horsepower. That combined wiht the automatic tranny and large rims will make your car slower than a stock manual EX. At least set the wing at the horizontal angle so that you wont have so much drag and downforce. Not bashing, just stating facts from being an experienced racer (2 yrs bracket drag and autox).

Yah, the wing is too big for my taste but it works and that is what matters. The rest of us may have cute little pretty wings but they don't function as a real wing. You know? Excellent job on your whole ride!!! It is tight and sweet at the same time!!! [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-cool.gif[/IMG][IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/IMG][IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG] Great pics but I would of loved to see the front too!!!

The aluminum wing is good, I seriously prefer the aluminum wing over the warped wings and big fat wings matched to body color.

I'd have to disagree with some people and say the car isn't clean at all

Cut the stickers..... with all those stickers and the wing.. how can you possible see what's behind you??

Holy sheite!! The entire car looks absolutely awesome but the wing ruins it with a boat load of rice! Definately a pimp coupe but the wing is too much for me. Hoever, the car is very showy and the wing fits the bill if you ask me. still mega, and I mean mega, ricey.

Good work there balla. If you can though flatten out that wing a little and it'll look so much cleaner.

Cheers

2k1SINCE00 - yeah i'm the one with cancer. i'm doing ok. i just switched to some new drugs last week and things are going pretty good. the side effects arent bad at all. thanks for caring! take care

mohawkboom - hey man the wing levels out by lift when the car is moving. it flattens out COMPLETELY at around 60mph. half way at 35mph.
i know there is a way to fully keep it flat at all times and make it not adjustable but i havent figured it out...hmm take care thanks for the comments

And also... i bought this decal from modern image and its going on next week...i know some of you will hate it but i am excited!



EDIT: This is the kit on a real car hehe...the car has its problems but i like the decal

dude, i could've hooked you up for cheaper than moderimage (unless that you are sponsered by modernimage) my friend robb (who's will site will have my car on it to show sample of his decals) has the same prgram as modern image on making decals, he could've hooked you up on whatever you saw at modernimage and more, he does custom vinyl too!

Hey,

Nice Ride.

I just picked up the same Projectors, and I really like the seats.

Honestly though, I think the car would look better with the stock tails, I use to have the altezzas as well, and when I first put on the altezza I thought it looked cleaner. But then I decided to compare and see it again with the stock ones after I got a tint. And they definitely look better to me with the stock tails.

But hey its your car, and so far its looking really, really nice.

Ray
