Yeah but i bought this wing for about a year now and didn't have a car to put it on til now. I love the way it looks. I'm a RICER. yeah i said it. and i'm PROUD! Reason why i don't have the hinge is because the Dude that I bought it from didn't give it to me because he didn't want holes in his car. So i said i can wait since i don't have a car. A month later that F_ckers car got reposses!

OOOoooh!!! J got pwn3d!!! Hey, you were all about that wing for a while dude, let him get it out of his system and then he will have learned the lesson.

Hit up Home Depot or Lowes or something like that.

HELL NO, but i am just telling him from experience, since i was once rice, that he will probably not like it, i can have my parents shop fabricate some hinges if i had the wing, but most metal wings hinges are different so he probably needs to post pics in order to give us any idea what kind of hinge he needs.

And abe, your homie, but i never said my wing has any function, and most cars with wings dont, we all know that, unless we are driving at speeds greater than 120+.... We all know that... All i said is that the function of a $50 aluminum wing is nothing other than an oversized shopping cart. My functionless wing is identical but has less shopping cart charecteristics, personal opinion.

All i was trying to do was give big brother advice to drilling in holes in to the center of a trunk coming from personal experience. Thats all.

No more "flaming" or advice giving, if someone has the hinges post, if not, dont post.
BACK TO TOPIC PLEASE.

and here is the actual hinges itself. There was four pieces to the original one. I don't know if you call them hinges. It's the piece that bolts on to the trunk.

K, totally thought you were talking about something else. AKA, the brackets that a lot of wings have now to conceal where the bolts show.

All it's missing now is that aluminum wing, a turbo kit and some different rims.
