Personally, I wouldn't mind a gt-style wing, except i'd go with a not-so-loud design, like the feed alum one. It's thinner & made speciifically for the FD (somewhat pricier though). Anything else looks like those generic ricer wings made by Arospeed, ARP, or Bomz....

Wingless is good too

*I have a Racing Beat type 1 spoiler for sale if interested :P:

If you like the 99 spec, you should consider the Racing Beat Type II wing. It looks almost the same, and it's alot cheaper.

the racing beat 2 wing.. how tall is it ? it seems more like the mazdaspeed new spoiler than it does the 99' spec because the RB 2 wing is actually connected on the bottom, unlike the 99 wing.

well i personally have a T wing not that big though. It actually came with the car imported from Japan. A 99 spec or a replica would be nice too. But definitely not the supra style. Here is a pic of my wing.



It's a single blade aluminium. I still don't know who makes it since it does not write anything on it and haven't seen it anywhere on the net. If you have any info let me know.

IMO, the 99' Spec style wings wouldn't look good on that car. The GT style wing looks nice with the kit. I'm not too fond of that particular wing, but definitely not the Supra style wing.

Out of your three choices, I would say the T Wing.

Your car looks great Kiwi. It looks good with no wing but the small T-wing adds to the wide body. You should take some pics from the rear with no wing and the T.

T wing looks good on a completely modded 7.
A stock wing or no wing looks best on an un-modified stock look of a 7.

hey guys ,(racer that wing looks good i plan to mod mine so it looks similar single blade etc but i might mount it very low like the scoot red rx7 n keep it simple cheers 4 pic)been thinkin and i feel the 99spec or similar will look weird because of the fenders making it wider
anyway cheers for opinions guys much appreciated

edit/also the car looked unfinished from some angles with no wing

Id say Supra wing or no wing...I like the Supra wing, but if it was a bit smaller, I would like it even more. In my opinion, the T-wing destroys a car...just my opinion though.
