i actually like the way the STI/WRX tail looks, i'd have to see a pic of it on a first gen, i think the rsx would look better between the two, personally i like the way the supra style wing looks on any car, but it has to be a small one

Looks like an LanEvo tail.

And from the way the bottom is angled it's probably making much more drag + lift than downforce.

Okay, since when did wings start being called tails? With the exception of the whale tale. Definitely Evo wing, terrible, isn't even mounted flush. Something more S8 RX-7 actually looks okay though

Do you know what an rsx is?

Those are focus headlamps and that is an ugly *** car. You can't even call it rice since there's nothing really "race inspired" about the car. I think i'll call it "FAIL".


Spoiler is to wing as tails are to tail lights. Just thought i'd point that out if it wasn't said enough.


I dont think the evo wing looks THAT bad on that fb. A little big. Maybe an sti 22b would look better though. It's not as bulky.

If it doesn't improve performance, handling or economy, WHY?
