Post what you feel is necessary. Saw this car on the highway, so I decided to take some pics. Enjoy, and let the comments begin.

That is actually the very wing that the subaru wrx STI rally car uses. That isnt rice, well unless its not on an STI. Hes just sporting the rally wing as we call it

i dont think it's an STi. and it certainly does NOT look like a rally car. so that = rice.

well the box's in the wing have the same affect as the little spoiler bar(diffuser) on top of the evo 8 MR.. it keeps the car level going in a straight line at high speed on very uneven surfaces. So i hope that helps

minus the fact that his is probably a heavy poly urethane one and subaru uses carbon fiber or fiberglass or something very light. his looks like it weighs a ton.

plus its not an STi.

but i am not going to call it rice. there was actual thought that went into that that a ricer could never begin to do. just fugly.

I would dig a slightly scaled down version of that wing. Otherwise, the car is nice.

It also allows the car to land rear first during a jump instead of having the front of the car plow into the dirt/ice/cement when they land.

WRC is awesome, but that thing is not necessary for the street..... and probably only a certain amount of ppl in this world knows anything about that wing.
