96-98 J-spec wing

does any one have some pics of the 98-96 stock wing? I have the standard "desktop" type pictures, but they don't really show it off too well. or at least some opinons of how they look? I've never seen one in person.
does anyone know where i can find one for for cheap? i have seen some stores selling them for about $600 but that's too much for my budget. new or good condition used, i don't care.

Check http://www.jt-imports.com under the Used Parts section. Is that what you're looking for?

actually it suits the lines of the car very well when u see it from behind and on the side. It even has the upturned edge on the outer edge just like the plastic section that surrounds the tail lights.

how do i know? I have a 96 rx7 with that wing.

bla! i still think 99 spec is the best, it suits the lines so perfectly and has an aftermarket look to it.

Yeah but there's no comparing a FEED/$1800 carbo fiber wing to a Mazda OEM used/$150.00 wing. I agree the FEED wing is awesome though.


Canman6969 has a great price for those used 96-98 FD wings and I think they look great and go with the stock lines very well. Better than like a veilside c1 wing or something.

thanks, that is a steal!

does anyone have any pics that would show how it looks if you were standing at your driver's door? basically not a shot from the back?

looks too much like the Dodge Stealth wing.

I don't think it fits the lines at all..

and I can't stand that feed wing either.

Thanks Quivver.

i am undecided on what spoiler to get. i partially agree with some of you on how it "doesn't follow the lines", but i want something bigger than 93-95 vintage, not as big as 99, and not too expensive.

I know this question has been asked a million times, but are there any cool spoilers that fit that criteria?

thank you guys (and girls?) for all your help.

I had that 96-98 spoiler, and I got a lot of compliments. Also I dont know if you guys saw that guy from England, that had the Black RZ, it was really nice. He got a lot of compliments on here, and that even sold a couple spoilers on here for me... I think it looks good. I just needed some more downforce, thats the ONLY reason I changed mine...

Can we all agree to stop using the word spec to describe a body part.

JEEZ!!!!! J-spec makes it even worst.
