Whats ur favourite wing / spoiler for the FC?

After doing some looking of my own, i like the re amemiya wing alot, but it's too pricey, and i know i'll never own it.

Whats your fav? A picture speaks 1000 words, but if not, input welcome as well.

I'm partial to the supra style wing as far as looks go.

I would really like to find some actual evidence/research on different wings and their actual functions. Not all wings/spoilers are meant entirely for down force, but they can be used for aerodynamics as well in eliminating that vaccum effect you get on the rear of your car and such....

Stock wing is just perfect for me. But if I were to go with some wide-body kit then I would probably opt for a GT wing(like Amemiya wing).

Kamanari Wing, but It has to be moulded on to the body - not bolted on.

wingless imo. the **** end of the FC is too small to fit a decent looking gt wing without all the other contraptions to attach it and it spoils the look. Go wingless for that squat look

The stock one is the best, functional and hard to pick out, flows with the car, like a sexy manican!

I STILL don't know the proper name for it... but we've all seen it.

I only like this wing when it is MOLDED to the body...

In this pic, I don't like where the wing mounts to the rear quarter panels... It's just "wrong" needs to be nice and smooth mounted.



Only because this one is "more subtle" and not too high... not too flashy.
