I started another thread with a pic of a Supra-style spoiler for the FC, which a LOT of people hate. So I'm wondering:

What kind of spoiler do you all like best for the FC hatchback? I just want moderate downforce, and something that doesn't look rediculous. Thoughts? Opinions? Should I die for putting up the pic of the Supra-esque spoiler?

Oh, and here's a pic of the Supra-style spoiler http://www.wingswest.com/products_de...page=1&id=1337

 

Only ridiculously big wings provide any ACTUAL downforce below very high (very illegal felony) speeds. Nothing you'd put on a street car.

Get a wing you like looks-wise and be done with it I think

 

humm I'm not sure if any of the aftermarket spoilers for the fc will actually give u any added downforce...

I like mine almost everyone else does not but I dont care. and I kind of like the supra wing to its just to tall. if the wing is thin and dont have a real face on it to catch the air then it will apply no downforce

Aluminum Park Bench Style!

 

Ridiculously big wings provide downforce at low speeds, with the penalty of extreme drag at high speeds. Look at some of the champion FD's in ProSolo. They have the biggest wings I've ever seen.

Smaller, or normal sized GT Wings give little downforce at low speeds, but suffer less drag comparatively. They provide the best grip/drag tradeoff at moderate speeds.

Small spoilers don't really give much downforce, but also don't have much of a drag penalty either.

 

Hi

well you have to consider that the air at this point of the car is flowing downwards.
So already an horizontal plane could produce a little downforce,
and actually might improve drag because the air flow behind the car may become
less turbulent

I for myself like this one:

Stock S4 TII or S5 GTU Wing FTW

very normal, stock looking and still more agressive without looking too far out...
and I do beleve this wing to be functional

 

I think this one looks bad-***

I am sorry..... no....

geebus that thing is freakin huge. Ugly....

 

stock t2 wing FTW

 

I'm not about that huge stuff. If I get one, I want it to be somewhere between stock TII and the Supra-esque one

 

best one hands down is....naked keep it clean cause nothing else helps you anyway

 

I personally love my wing, but I have no clue who makes it (no, its not the Finishline spoiler.)

 

let me be the first to say...duckbill spoiler!

 

lately I have been playing forza. I hate every civic I see with a big black wing on it but I am thinking it might look good on my s4 gxl.

 

the duckbill is NOT functional

 

Wrong. reduces drag slightly

 

Stock spoiler cant be beaten. Not having a spoiler is too plain and throws off the body lines. Big supra style or aluminum wings just look like ***, maybe a civic would be more suited for such a retarded wing/spoiler. STOCK FTW!

 

i would definitely have to say stock TII/GTU spoiler, i have yet to see anything better on an FC.

 

 

that wing is sweet. where did you get it?

 

cleeeeeeeeeean ^ although i think some different rims might be nicer.

 

it looks like a painted stock sport wing, I saw a thread on the aerodynamic profile of an FC and I"m not a wind tunnel genious but people were saying the sport wing is the most beneficial due to low pressure there or something.... i dunno

 

Thanks I got some wheels already. They have been in my room just waiting for some tires.

 

so what wing is that man.
