Sup guys..
I took my GT Spoiler off about a month ago, and some of my friends keep telling me to put it back. What do you guys think?? Should I put it back?? or keep the clean wingless 240..

Here are some pics...

keep it off, it's way to big, instead of wasting money on that, try hard to look for the oem front lip.

If you really want a wing go with a lower profile like the one i attached. I am not really a fan of wings, but for some reason that car looks real nice with it, maybe its the rest of the car, but it looks real nice. The owner, I do believe is on this board.

Yeah, I'd vote to keep it off, but ultimately it's YOUR car, and you should do what YOU want to do with it :D

Wing off.

I have stock rims and mine does not look like it sets that high off the ground.

You might invest in a knowledge kit in properly lowering the car about 2 inches and keep your steering geometry proper.

I am still looking for the killer tutorial in lowering mine a shade, but not ruining the ride or eating the tires up or looking like A$$

I need a new hatch as well. Rusted under the s h i t t y little fom factory tail.

If you want a wing, go with a wangan wing or a kouki 180sx wing. Those are the two best looking wings imo for the s13 hb. Those gt wings rarely if ever look good on cars. That small one posted doesnt look too bad. Wingless looks good as well on s13s.

92s13--what kind of suspension setup do you have?

NY180sx---are you sure you're on Sportlines and AGXs? Looks more like Pro-Kits

it has a pdm front lip, or bomex (same thing), not sure about the skirts and the rear, could be the full kit.

That is a very nice car, looks nice and love the color and rims.

that wing does look nice, of course with the body kit. in your case ny180sx, since the car does not seem to currently have an agressive stance (lowering, aerodynamics), since you asked, no wing. yes, at a very high speed it does contribute to down force, but to attain the speed you seek, lowering the car leaves less pressure underneath the car to impede its trajectory.

without the wing, it looks clean and simple. for poser purposes, the wing would look nice, i guess but serve no functionality.

eventually i wanna get a wing...

but when i do i want it to be a HUGE bad *** GT wing...i want it to be WIDE like the real JGTC wings lol


but that's after i break 300RWHP and have my interior and body kit finished up


so probably next summer will be time for the wing :-p

I like that STYLE wing on hatches.. just not the height of most all of them. theres a civic around here with a mild wings west kit and a REALLY low R1 jgtc style wing that looks good. sits MAYBE an inch high of the rear deck looks clean and good. go with something like that if you must have a wing. but thats just my opinion... I could be wrong

I'd say keep the Boeing 747 wing off...you could always put it back on though....and replace the wings west sticker for one that says BOEING!!!!!:coolugh: :D

Some Wings look good but in this case OFF! definitely!

Ugh. GT wings. I'm sorry, but I'm allergic to them. They scream "rice" and I don't think they look good on anything. I swear, I'm going to scream if I pass another Saturn sedan or another Hyundai with a frigging GT-style wing hanging off the *** end (saw both of those over the weekend).

Please, PLEASE, for the love of God! Keep that wing off of your car!!

Like everyone else said,remove that ugly wing and wings west sticker.second,remove that ugly black stripe that goes near the middle of the body on your car.



the bodykit on the purple 240 gives it a super car-ish look.reminds me of a corvette...very nice

The wing might look good on a boeing.

Leave the wing off man,to me the only acceptable wing(barely) is the stock one. I'm gonna take mine off when I paint the car.
