Advice on wheels & rear spoiler please :)
Basically...The car has the FEED wide fenders (front and rear), the FEED II R front end with the FEED combo lights & lens covers, And yep you guessed it, a FEED hood.
The car is waiting to be re-sprayed in a yet un-decided colour. I cannot decide on a rear spoiler & I am not sure I know the full range available. I like the look of the 99 rear wing...Except the base that attaches to the hatch, which can only be discribed as a lump of uglyness (in my opinion). The FEED boot spoiler (Not sure of its real name) looks like a possibility, but I hav'nt found many decent pics of it as yet. The car is used mainly for fast road, with the occasional track day...So I don't really need a GT2 wing (Or I may just switch to a gt wing for track days...I will see how it goes :)). Any advice/pics/opinions would be great :) Now..Regarding wheels...I have no clue what I want really...My taste range is huge...From things like Advan RG's to Work VS-XX's. Of course, it will be super flush fitment & a small stretch on the tires to allow for more low. Go wild :) If anyone has any colour ideas too, they would be welcome :) - I'm currently flipping through a mass of House Of Kolor charts. Cheers in advance :D Ceylon. |
FEED type2 seems like the obvious choice for a rear wing. I have one on my FD and like it a lot..not too flashy, but definitely aftermarket.
Wheels are all up to you. If money were no object for me, I'd be on a set of CCWs, BBS LMs or Fiskes. Nice FD BTW if that's your car in the avatar (doesn't look like a FEED hood though..?). :icon_tup: I also just had my FD repainted to stock Montego Blue. My mom has a Jaguar, and I absolutely LOVE the BRG color of her car. Part of me kinda wishes that I would have had my car sprayed THAT color. Remove all the badges, paint it BRG, keep the wide body and watch people wonder WTF your car is. :awesome: |
Here are a couple pics of the FEED type2 wing.

British racing green is an option I had'nt even considered. But that actually would be pretty sweet. I will look into the alloys - Thanks :icon_tup: Ceylon. |
Well the Feed type 2 might look great, it won't be functional on the track. For a great wing that isn't huge and actually is functional on the track check out the MazdaSpeed GTC wing.

As you know MS discontinued their whole product line, but when they were available the wing was $1600. We sell them for $1000 in good condition. As far as wheels, what is your budget? I haven't seen too many yellow feed fd's, I think a nice yellow with black/cf accents would set the car off. Only yellow feed fd I have seen http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y121/purerx7/rftr6.jpg |

Only yellow feed fd I have seen Regarding wheel cost - Thats not something I'm taking into account really - So assume there is no limit :gwink: Idealy I would like something like Advan RG's - I am not too keen on RG2's. Something light & prob gold (depends on what colour he car ends up..) is what I am after I guess. SSR GT2s are nice too...Something along those lines would be perfect! Yellow & carbon is an awesome combo yeah..Its definatly something I would consider! While searching up greens I came across this, which I think looks awesome http://i108.photobucket.com/albums/n..._FSW_0804b.jpg Thanks for the help :) Ceylon |
The only thing I dislike about yellow FEED front, is it makes the front look too soft & non-agressive. So I quickly did this in mspaint....It could be CF overlay or just black, what do you think? I like it, it brings back that agressive look imo.

^ I love the look of it yeah, beautiful for a street car...The main deterrent though is the method that it attaches. I'm not confidant doing a decent speed with that on the back. Also, when you change a bulb in the rear cluster, I presume you have to remove it and use new tape?
I may just run a GT2 wing for track, and wingless on the road.... Thanks for the input guys :icon_tup: Ceylon |
^ so upgrade to LED's and never worry about it again, no one has had their just FLY OFF.
