pics of my new wangan wing!

So brown finally arrived after all my bitching... they raped me on duty and crap but oh well...





really liking this wing. I thought it might be too big but i think it's "shrinking" on me (get the pun?)

so what are your thought... It's still just FG and primer and stuck on with foam tape

My wife says I look like i'm from initial D now lol

I don't like the wing much, it's okay but not great. I do like that front lip though. And yeah, if you had some black Watanabes or something you'd look like Ryosuke going down the road lol.

I'm not a fan. It sticks UP too much for my tastes.

You're not getting shot down. You have different tastes than some of us. Thank god you stayed away from the bench wings and the crazy body kitsthough.

your 626/240sx lip is growing on me and all you need is a nice set of TII skirts and a rear skirt to finish the car off.

Make sure you hardmount the wing otherwise you'll see it fly off in the rear view mirror.

It's just my personal opinion. It's not something I would go so far as to say everyone should think it's ugly and you should burn your car for putting it on. It's definitely a personal opinion wing. I guess I'm just a fan of my duckbill (Sport).

I rock the sport spoiler too. I will eventually try to make FG copy of it but just a tad longer.

I used to like the spoiler you have but when I got some good pics of it I realized it was too tall and round in the back and lost interest. Oh, and I couldn't find one so it helped me in my decision making process.

nice black TII but your headlights are broken.

Yeah, I've seen them in person and it just looks awkward to me, along with the rest of the Kaminary kit. Some guy here in campbell has the complete kit withthe license plate "obscure7"

Maybe with a TII lip and slightly boxier sideskirts it will look like it belongs there.

Yeah we don't need a video like this to embarrass the Rx7 community.

Personally I don't like the wing due to the rounded off rear and how tall it is. But if you like it then more power to you!

lol because a soccer mom in her enormous suv decided pull out of her parking stall to close to me about 4 years ago, used to have color matched s4 aero mirrors, most likely will pick up a set of border rear views, i've come to terms with my fugly mirrors for now though and try and try as i might those damn headlights stay broken

thanks for the comments

edit: to the poster below me: You're right it is a TII swap, finished it about 2 months ago, took alot of time and some money lol (went microtech lt-10) pretty happy with perfomance aspect fmic is going in this week then larger injectors and turning up the boost and ill be happy. on current setup made 255.1 on a mustang dyno

anyways sorry for the thread hi-jack but i do like the wangan wing
