I look at the shape of the car...and gah DANG it's sexy...so excited for this car.

...back on topic. I go back and forth on the wing. I guess I have to see the production version with it. But for now based on the mules I want the low deck wing, but if I HAVE to get the large wing to get the body kit I'll deal.

no wing ...until i decide it is hardcore enough after i put a rollbar in.

then again, i think i rather save the money

FRS Trunk lid or STI spoiler. id be happy with either one. The concept 2 spoiler is not acceptable.

If functional and looks good, then yes
If functional and ugly, probably not
If non-functional, NO!

FR-S trunk with the edgy CSL style duckbill is perfect... the camo spoiler is almost a joke with how crazy it looks with respect to how plain the car looks in the camo... it belongs on the batmobile and it's going to be around 200hp, does downforce even come into question until like 400+hp on a normal track / street (not that you should be going speeds enough to notice)?

I know some GT-R guys notice at the track when they run no spoiler / upgraded spoiler, but they're all pushing around 600+ hp.

I bet aerodynamic gains can be noticed at 60mph with something like that.

It has nothing to do with horse power and everything to do with speed. I could put a spoiler on a bicycle and as long as I can go fast enough I can generate downforce.

I wait and see to make my mind up.

I actually like how the car looks with the wing, so it will depend on 3 things: price, actual down force created, and penalty to MPGs (drag). If it's acceptable in all 3 categories, I'll get it.

I'm talking about the wing on the 'Ring production car.

Uhm Don't know what cars your referring to? I personally do not usually like decklips. I usually prefer High Rise Type R, A-Spec, Type S type of spoilers. Aftermarket is where all the gross stuff comes from usually so I definitely don't agree with you

how about something like the tvr sagaris

Would be pretty slick if I didn't have to look at the giant stainless steel bracket.

Why would I want an airbrake that I can't disengage from in the cockpit?
