I am going to buy a spoiler and can't decide what to buy. I have a choice of buying a oem factory spoiler painted and shipped for $175

Or

A WingsWest flush mount spoiler which should cost about $120.00 + $100 for install and paint

What would you do?
NEED OPINIONS

Thanks

Wings West! if you can find em, they are going out of business so i'd get one QUICK!

I don't think they're going out of business. From what I've read they're relocating and opening up a production plant in the states.


EDIT: Here's what they say on their website:

I definitely go with the wings west flush mount spoiler. It adds a better look and style to the car. I'm ordering one once their back for business...

aaronnn

some pictures might help. i never seen the wings west spoiler before.. the only ones i actually seen are the mugen, m3 lip spoiler, and the oem's for our gen TL's.

A-spec spoiler~

yip...have to say A-spec...i called vancouver to get my hands on 1 but its like $1k...lol...n doesnt come in NG...so the easilest is to get the white 1 the strip the paint n repaint with NG...thats like...$1k + S&H + paint + labor = $1.3k...ish

looney010

here ya go

aaronnn

whoa.. that looks freakin hot! thanks looney.

what exhausts are those? they look really nice. or are they just exhaust tips? either way.. they look crazy hot.

acura3.2tLv

yea I am definitely going with the wings west!


They have them at www.spoilerdepot.com for $135

z3Ro

i think those were the sebring xhausts...from a chrysler...

Inspire

yeah... Wings West looks hot, but will it fit the holes that were left from the installation of the OEM spoiler?

looney010

to be totally honest, i dunno what tips these are, just thought they looked nice so i got em... i like to think of them as benz style oval tips but to each his own..

Assuming the little nubs on the bottom of the trunk are indicators for the OEM wing, the wings west will match up pretty well with the OEM holes.

Im assuming thats the Wings West Spoiler? What do the A-Spec wings look like? And Im digging those tips. Anyways how do you guys think the wing would look on a stock height stock looking car?

Where do you guys think is the cheapest place to find the Wings West Flush mount wing? Painted and everything if not primiered will be fine too.

dark inspire

i think the cheapest place might be spoilerdepot.com or try emailing scott@insightmotorsports.com if i am not mistaken

z3Ro

a-spec wing looks just like the oem spoiler...the only difference is that there is a light at the top 2 corners...it is by far the best spoiler out there for our cars...n very xpensive...u can get them in canada...i called richmond, vancouver for a price n they said its around $800 without S&H...

My vote goes to A-spec first, then Wing west. OEM looks too boring to me.

Does anyone have a picture of the A-Spec wing?

songoku

Mine is JDM INSPIRE wing, but it's pretty much same.

The A-Spec and Inspire wings are about the same? Is there any difference between the two? I like that Inspire wing. I think I just made up my mind on what wing to go with. How much was your wing? And where did you purchase it from?

bkzjimmy

songoku

It's pretty much same except for the light on the top. Aspec has RED and INSPIRE has GREEN.

But I modified mine to orange bulb and to be turned on with the signal.

How much do those wings go for? And where would I go to purchase something like that?

songoku

I've heard you cannot order any Aspec parts unless you own Aspec TL. You can try aj-racing.com and ask them if they can order you INSPIRE spoiler from Japan. It might cost you some $$$.
