Do I need a wing on my Car?

No I am not asking I am venting...I had someone tell me again they wanted a wing for thier import...grrrrrr...I know that I have the factory wing on my civic because its a factory piece,   But if you drive a 1986 toyota corolla you dont need a wing!   It looks retarted! and you will never go over 160-200MPH to actually ever have to put that to use..

Actually any type of spoiler in the rear of a FWD car is pointless.  your forcing the rear down and the front up- giving front less traction...if you go fast enough.

I need quality equipment, feel free to donate.

what's even better is very few street cars go fast enough for most wings to do much (from memory the reports I've read say over 150 mph before truly effective) the ones that work are like on the nascar cars, and that's only if done with the rest of the body in mind too

I have a wing on my 96 stratus....i also have 24" spinners

...kidding

my friend put a wing from an old GMC fullsize van, on his new Shadow he bought for 600$ its the best thing that car ever had added to it lol.

but in reality i've never found wings to be anything other than a useless eyesore, not too many warrant the purchase the guy made for it imo.

Wings do too make the cars go faster...And so do the Stickers and the aftermarket emblems....

HAHAHA

Gotta love Ricers....I used to have an Eclipse GSX....I never added anything to the outside of the car exept the Z rated tires that I won at a car show.....All my money went under the hood for go fast goodies....I even took off all the GSX markings...I like the sleeper look myself.....

How many people have came through my shop with those big "Look At Me" Wings on their cars..if you look at the trunk lid you can see where the wing has made it buckle a little cuz they didnt brace it right...Funny as hell./..

LOL saw a cartoon.  A guy had his ricer car done up.  Had some 5 gazillion stickers on it and a 3 foot wing with some massively ugly tires and rims.  He was like "yeah got an extra 7 hp out of the decals and wing, but only 3 out of the intake, strange"  I just laugh because I know many guys that are like that.

wings are useless their made just for looks the only car i've seen that has a point to use a wing is the porsch 911 to stabilize the swag movement when it goes above 55 mph other than that whats the point...Gonna spend an extra 100 to 250 bucks on a wing plus painting it might as well invest that cash on another toy for inside your ride .Improve your sound or video,etc........

they make the people feel like 95 hrosepower under the hood is alot so wee need downforce to keep all that power on the wheels for more traction. toobad all the imports are front wheel drive. its not going to be long untill some tool puts one on the hood of the car...
to me there nothing more than big cheese graters on the back of the car

You mean my Garrett Turbo sticker means I not getting an extra 50ps out of my 85Subaru? *lol*

-------------

Sorry worked, but that sticker is only puttin out 10 hp.  Look into a massive Honda logo or those japaneese symbols that say something like my $hit stinks or somehthing will really boost that thing up.

The greatest thing to boost your HP with is those Racing Seat covers....The ones with the APC Logo at the top are the best....And too get a little extra oomph get the APC rubberized steering wheel cover and the APC Floor mats...MAKE SURE THE COLORS OF THESE PIECES DO NO MATCH.....That will give you about 30hp at least.....

How could I forget the MOMO Look-A-Like Shifter knobs.....Man those REALLY crank up a 4 banger....

Add all the above and combo it with a Noisy muffler and a 5" Exhaust tip and you can turn any car into a Road monster....

What about m flouros?

now if you get the 5" exahust tip make sure the actual exhaust pipes are only 2" ok?  Some crazy idea that it will restrict airflow if the actual pipes are larger then 2" (kidding if you can't tell).  I'm looking at going to 2.75 on my grand prix.     zoom zoom

To be honest my little subaru has 2.25 stright through to a 4inch cannon nothing else, damn it makes some noise!!lol I been hit by the EPA twice so far

Hey Jeff, I dont have alot of money right know so If I just take a 2x6 plank of wood and use some drywall screws and mabye some door stops so I get that slopey thing going on, will that work just as well as the ones you sell. I can paint it with some tremclad spray paint or something like that, then it wont rott, I dont want to put all that money in for nothing

LoL Ravendarat, just get pressure treated lumber and you will be fine. I saw this little civic with dual 5" fart mufflers coming out of the back. Dont get me wrong, I love the sound of a healthy v-8, but the mosquito from hell sound just does'nt do it for me.

Wings are definitely for the crowd that thought "THE FAST AND THE FURIOUS"  was a COOL movie. I never knew they put 16 speed transmissions in any passenger cars. But whatever turns your crank, I guess.
