If you wanted everyone to like the wing you should have just posted look at the RE Amemiya wing I won off ebay. There probably would have been VERY FEW negative comments

i dont care about the hood weight i am going for looks and as for the people who do not like the wing thats their own opinion and they are entitled to it. As long as i like it thats all that matters right???

ummmm....

YUP!

This is ridiculous. That wing looks like it's homemade. (probably is too.) HOW UGLY IS IT!?!?!?! Oh my god!!! I take it you want to be known as a superqueer. Might as well slap on a "Type R" sticker onto it.

I'll look better and faster so dont start thinking your gunna be the fastest... there is always someone faster....
Never said I was the fastest... But I'm pretty sure I'm faster than your NA, unless your SC'ed, with some kinda awesome bridgeport

If that janky *** wing is any indication of the type of mods you'll be doing to your engine, I'm not too worried.

BTW you wouldn't be the first person who said "I'm gonna do this......and I'm gonna do that........" The proof is in the pudding.... I think is how it goes.

$8000 huh? why don't you just buy a 3rd gen? It's gonna cost you about $4k to do the J-spec swap properly.

Plus, I'm a RUNNING!! turbo motor, turbo drivetrain, and about $4k ahead of you . Don't you think, by the time you put $8k in getting a j-spec swap(and get it running) I'll have already done more to my car.
It's not as easy as just going to Wal-Mart and picking up your parts ya know.

For the simple reason that it is stuck. I'm sure you can use your gawdy wing to wedge it out.

He could do worse. Have you seen the spoiler at shitonhonda.com that's made of WOOD?!

When your park bench - er, wing arrives, turbosmoke, before you mount it on the car make sure that you can't light it on fire.

turbosmoke, I saw it also. Although that particular FC didn't look like your car is gonna look, even a FC can be riced out, as you are soon to prove.

oh god, well. I hope you plan on spending about 30% of your $8k on shipping!
And why not just paint your hood glossy black, testors makes one hell of a badass looking gloss black yo!

a wing is a wing, who cares how big, qhat it looks like, i have the stock wing and it is perfect for me, i dont need anything else, everyone says how this is ricey and that is ricey, i think that the ones that are so concerned with rice should go buy hondas because if you ever notice the H kids are always talking about what is and what isnt rice, i think you should all change your tampons you sound like a bunch of ***** crying about rice and its annoying, thats why i try to stay away from forums...

You would get better looks if you used 2x4's for the legs and an old snowboard for the wing. Then people with be laughing with that rather than at you.

Well ****...

I've done pretty good, I got sick of all this critcizing bullshit so I stopped coming to the forum. If I can ever find a decent FC around me in cali that not $8k I'll buy it and come to the parts about meets and mechanical questions. As for the rest of this criticizing people style I say **** it. If you call him rice and he can smoke you either 1/4 mile OR road racing then I'm going to laugh at you for lack of driving skill. (despite 1/4 mile being mostly the amount of $$$ you have ((which is why I dont like it))

So have fun guys, turbosmoke, just stop responding to em and kill the thread, I've lost respect for some people who wont drop it. I thought some of you were above it. Not a slam to anyone in particular but I'm just tired of all the kindergarten bullshit.
