Just to note that the APR wings do not have the same profile at all as the RE's.

They have the "3d" shape but are the mounts are much higher.

The RE are'nt that much like 1,400$ in CF.

Mazdaspeed wings are slightly cheaper new. You can get a cheapy. But i just love to have some genuine parts. I recommend looking on ebay and even better yahoo auctions Japan, ive seen RE Ememiya wings going for a couple of hundred dollars

i got the Origin carbon wing. only about $500. APR's are still pretty expensive. for that price, i'd get a voltex wing.

why do people like to get tail light covers! my opinion is they make the car look like a ricer. using them with the 99 spec tail lights is prob the only remote thing i believe they could be used for...and look ok.

There are a lot of options out there...FEED, R-magic, Knightsports, Voltex, etc etc. There are quite a few options out there, but it's true that all the high quality carbon wings are pretty much in the same price range...and of course I can get 'em all
