racing beat type 2? Close to the '99 but if you notice the wing is in contact all across the hatch.

You need to use a basic graphics/picture editing program to "resize" the picture. Adobe photoshop comes to mind, but there are lots of programs you can use. A program might have come with your pc, digital camera, scanner or photo printer that will allow you to resize the picture. A high resolution picture might measure 1280 X 768 pixels. Reduce it to 640 x 480 and you're good to go.
Also, saving it as a jpg file instead of a bmp will reduce file size. Most programs will allow you adjust a jpg file when you save it....size versus quality.

That wing is a little difficult to find.. There was a few for sale in the classifieds awhile ago but they are long gone now. Finding one used is the only option.. Unless you want to get the real Mazdaspeed Type II (the original creator of the wing) shipped from Japan.

That specific wing is the MazdaSpeed Type II wing. They're very expensive. Also hard to find.

The wing is also known as Racing Beat type 2 (the replica of the Mazdaspeed) which is no longer for sale..... It's a 1-piece design that covers the entire rear, from the trunk lid to the rear hatch glass.

They go for pretty cheap used as they are generally pretty huge (1 piece design) and 99-spec's slowly drop in price.



Also keep in mind that it's non-adjustable, unlike the similar-looking 99-spec wing.

Last time I checked for the Mazdaspeed Type II it was $1300 non-shipped from Japan.

Wing is semi adjustable for the Mazdaspeed Type II. Takes a little bit of custom drilling but it works.
