Should I Install This Rear Wing
 

I currently have the stock rear spoiler on my rx-7.

What is your opinion if I removed the stock spoiler and installed this Universal Carbon Fiber GT2 Wing For the RX7 FD3S. The WingSpan is 55.5 Inches. The Height is 9 inches.

I found it on ebay for $299.99

lol do it, all your highschool buddies will think you are soooo cool.....

God no.

do it. Go ahead and destroy the sanctity of your FD with that abomination.

Dont

only $300(plus shipping) to make your beautiful sports car into a rice mobile, what a deal

I'm surprised you guys are against the idea.

I should have mentioned that I'll definately have it painted to match my cars color.

Don't listen to them... they're just jealous they didn't find it first!
Install it and take some pics to post here.

hahahahahahahahahaha

Thank You. I think it will look good when it's painted and mounted. I've seen a few videos on youtube and these wings give the RX-7 a really nicer look.

I'm just afraid that what if I do this and it looks awkward.

i call bullshit

you shouldnt get some cheap ebay crap wing..


atleast go with an RE-Amemiya wing, or something of better quality suitable for the FD

if you want to make your car look better drop it, that thing is 4x4 status right now. uglllyyyy

You should buy two and install one on the hood as well.
Whoever said downforce was overrated was full of shit.

rofl:lol:

+1

fixed for accuracy.

:icon_tup: or dont even waste the money at all, fd is gorgeous stock

agreed, or he can go with the 99spec wing...


either way, dont go ebay cheap.....:icon_no2:

The Rotary Gods won't like this one captain

its too small.

Those things don't work when you don't have the required other 2 on your doors. You'll never get enough lift to get off the ground without installing the door fixtures no matter how fast your takeoff is. Plus, you'll need afterburners to see any real gains on the street. Don't get me started on what kind of fuel upgrades you'll need to support afterburners. It's ridiculous the price they charge for street legal afterburners. I would just put this dream of a flying car to rest.

Here's what it would look like. Do you all think it looks so bad?

Nice wing. I hope you got the one with lots and lots of Type R stickers. You will need them (12 hp/sticker IIRC) to overcome the aero drag from that wing.

All joking aside, it wouldn't look so bad on a car that has been upgraded heavily and looks like it means business (looks like the owner tracks it a lot). It does look silly on a stock car mainly because it demonstrates that your priorities are in the wrong place. So perhaps you will want to wait until most of the body/engine has been crafted out...

It's like a cape for cars. If you have the outfit, a cape doesn't look half bad. Try wearing a cape with just t-shirt and jeans....
