I saw that spoiler on Corksport's main site yesterday and instantly groaned. I don't blame them for making those spoilers as kids will buy them and since they're so cheap to produce, the profit margin is great.

Let's just hope that they don't put those spoilers on S4/S5 TII's, 10th AE's or GTUs's. Now, that'd be a shame.

 

holy... for $150 they will sell alot!!!

but not from me !!!


I'm still waiting for them to make a nice cheap reverse vent hood.

 

Wow they have a bunch of RX 8 stuff already???

never mind I had only clicked on body when I posted that nothing shows up for the other stuff.

 

that spoiler is made by a company in korea called "artpiece". correct me if i am wrong, or if i am right, but im usually pretty accureate.. i had one sitting in my living room about a year ago.. thankfully the better side of me sold the damn thing.. i did get it for free though..

i.e. www.artpiece.co.kr i believe

Its really not to bad. I mean, its not too high at least. Not my style, but apparently its someone's.

 

i'll buy 3 and stack them for better down force err well no.. i'd rather be spoilerless or just get a new factory one

 

If you buy 3, you almost have a glider.

 

It looks good. Too many people knock on these kinda spoilers. They look good on race cars. Really wouldnt that spoiler look good with a decient kit. Properly fit wheels. And a gutted caged interior. Dont know about you but Id be impressed.
Maybe corksport can sell just the brackets?

ehh........ the only similar wing that i like is this 1 by RE-Amemiya

 

there is a pic of a red FC from the back. The spoiler is plain like the corksport. I think that one is also a amemiya.

 

How do you get **** out of the hatch with one of those things?

 

I like the fact that CS now is carrying the knightsport front end (my fav). Hopefully they'll make copies ala the border/mazdaspeed/kaim pieces.

 

I still say that one is mounted backwards in the pic!

If you look at the leading edge of the wing, it seems to be higher than the trailing edge (you can see it in the top pic). That would create lift, not downforce. I'd like to see it mounted the other way around.

Am I crazy? Does anyone else agree here?

 

those types of wings look like crap on 2nd gens in my opinion. The only way that those wings could possibly ever look good, would be if the 2nd gen had some crazy wide body kit and wait, I still don't know if it would look good then.

 

the wing is like that because the air flowing over the top of the car carries a different profile so its more airodynamic in the way it creates lift

 

wings like that suck unless you have an escudo, or a bonified race car......

 

Look how much stronger the RE Amemiya Wing is compared to the one from cork sport.

I would not doubt if someone actually reached speeds necessary to take advantage of that wing it would bend or break off.

 

Wow.... Just what the hell's happened to the world today!?

 

Im going to buy 6 for my escort! ya, ill be insanely fast with them!

 

West TX RX-7 "I would not doubt if someone actually reached speeds necessary to take advantage of that wing it would bend or break off."

Ever stick your hand out the window on the freeway and make a little air foil out of it? The surface area of your palm is enough to make lift or downforce you can certainly feel at 55mph.

These wings have 30x the surface area of that and most definately do something. Everyone claiming that they don't work unless over some insane speed is flat out wrong.

While I agree that the CS piece looks pretty cheap and flimsy, I disagree that they are ineffective in some manner.

 

Actually I like the wing. I think it would look good on a solid black car. (like mine) With fender flares and a nice body kit. I'm puttin it on mine. If someone doesnt like then well...**** you. Its your opinion. And opinions are like ********, everyone has one.

 

LOL.. good question!

 

From the SIDES Jimbob, how else?

If the wings are flimsy, why not fill them w/ some expanding foam. It should take the flex out of them, while adding no more than a pound or 2.

 

**** i like it id consider buying one, but i think it looks ugly if you have a red car and/or no body kit

You know i feel most if not all car ppl have a little bit of rice in them I mean come one we all like to mod our cars and make them look better
