Pics with Wings West GFX on blue coupe!

What do you think? I just put the gound FX on and I think it looks awesome now. I know that some of you will say get rid of the wing, lower it, or clear the headlights. Dont worry, that will get done eventually.

i normally dont like that kit but i think it looks good on the blue. and yeah, like u said...lower it, ditch the wing, clear the lights, and as a side note say no to altezzas!

and i hope that the sticker on the side says SOHC and not DOHC!

I agree, wing's not quite my taste (not ricey, just don't like the shape. I'm assuming it's a GT style?). Other than that, STYLIN!

I must say that I didn't care for that kit until I just saw it on your ride! Like you said, lower it, lose the wing, and clear the headlights. One other thing, lose the altezzas too. Other than my opinion, the ride is tight...super clean in those pics too...

Actually, I don't think ur wing is THAT bad. It's more tasteful than those double decker and airplane wannabe ones! [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/IMG]

Everyone's telling ya to remove the wing, but I'm afraid I have to disagree with everyone. I have always loved those wings......

Thanks for all the great comments! I knew I would get some criticism on the wing. The only reason I havent taken it off yet is that I dont want to fix the holes. It will probably stay on for a while. Any exhaust recommendations? How about springs? And yes, the sticker on the side does say SOHC VTECH not dohc.

I like it, its really coming along but yeah I would lose that wing and those altezza's but besides that looks all right I am not a big fan on dropping a ride, seen my buds who have and the bottoms of the rides are just hidious if you plan on selling it like they are, better hope they don't see the bottom [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG] just my $.02 but I will say drops do look good.

whats the spec on those tires?

Nick

Yeah, I agree with deathor, screw em. Keep it the way it is...don't drop it, don't lose the wing, just leave it. Looks awesome.

i think the kit looks great, but you NEED to lose the wing.. aside from that, you're car is hot.

Bah, be original -- keep the wing. Nice ride though!

BTW, Where did you get the SOHC VTEC decals?

You can buy the decals from www.summitracing.com. I bought mine at a car show in PA.

Don't lower it, you already have that look with the 17" wheels and body kit! My personal choice is to mos def get rid of wing and keep altezzas if you like them! Do what you like and keep or add what you like! [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/IMG] Jodie
