Big Country Labs AkA Big Wang.

Well, I'm here to beat a dead horse. Was wondering if anyone had one installed of course, or had the crazy thought of buying one.

Just wanted to start a little fire here.

Come forth my children.

I have one waiting to be installed just in the process of making custom trunk mounts for the wing. The wing is pretty damn big though gonna be really interesting. Cant wait to hear all the hate

Make you you don't confuse hate with getting laughed at.

None of the wings on here are functional unless the manufacturers can provide wind tunnel testing results, so it's safe to assume most of the wings are for the 2 fast 2 furious tuning crowd.

They have a red frs on instagram with a front bash bar that has one installed. Looks rather insane. Not my cup of tea.

I'm getting one for my Lexus SC eventually but I think the FRS doesn't look good particularly with a big wing unless it's widebody (just an opinion). Voltex series are pretty nice but way more money ... and to those that are arguing about functionality... wings don't really come into play unless you're talking about over 100+ mph and most of the time over the roof line (REALLY tall wings)... so this is more of an aesthetic exercise more than anything. For my drift car big wing is a must! =] and I've heard nothing but good things from my friends about BCL.

An airfoil is simple, and getting it into clean air is just as simple...
