gay, the only spoiler that looks good on a CL is a stock one, either that or none.

There's a dude that lives near me with that wing, here are some pics of his car.

I think it looks aright, but I love the look of my oem wing better.

i had the stock spoiler on before, but i wanted something different thats why i went with the typeR... it looks too big at first but you adjust to it after a while.. i still think no spoiler looks the best on our car but i dont wanna pay again to get the wholes patched up and the whole trunk repainted.
if you want more pics of my spoiler / trunk i got plenty let me know

i think the type R wing looks good on Nato's car because its black. The primrose one looks funny. Subtle = good.

I have mixed feelings about it.
I look at it and i think it looks pretty sweet, but then i remember that EVERYONE used to put those damn wings on their car ever since the supra (imo the only car that wing belongs on).But i do think they look prettygood on rsx's. Other than that. I wouldnt do it.
Im confused...I think the thing that bugs me is that i know that it does not go on that car. If you want to do a wing, if not the OEM wing, go with an aluminum or carbon one. I cant find the exact one im talking about mainliy cuz our internet at work is unbarably slow. But i think its called the super dragger. It only the bottom of the wing is only about an 1" about the top of the trunk. i really like those...When i get home ill see if i can find a picture of it to post.

I know what ur talking about, but the back of our car is not flat so it would look funky..
They look great on the 97+ preludes

you forgot one!....shhhhhhhh!!! (its a secret! ) *customised* wing, which hopefully i'll be able to start doing sometime soon.

(And I actually dont think anyones done this before, so hopefully it will turn out looking alright. More than likely I'll hopefully have it done when the CF Hood gets here because my car will be at the bodyshop and they'll have to paint the wing.

get the picts on your computer. (like load them to a file on the comp. from a digi) Then go to:

http://www.imageshack.us/

click browse and find your picture that you want, and click host it. after its been hosted, go down to the bottom of the page (you'll see a bunch of different URL's) and find the last one that says "Direct link to image" Copy that link, then post on AZ & paste the link but add:
[img] <--before link & after link --> [/img]

So it should look like this:
[img] "you pasted link here" [/img]

oem spoiler > *

I kinda wish the oem wing was a little bigger though, like maybe an extra inch higher off the trunk.


Quick Reply: Type R wing? or stay with the OEM
