Do people really still use the words "ill" and "illin"? Nice wheels, understated and classy. How badly will you f-it up with the stancetardation?

ETA: Being Norwegian, it pains me that you would do that to your car. However, if the young ladies like it, carry on.

Anything and everything on the car is a factor of its overall "stance."
In keeping with this post regarding your thoughts on "stance", you need to dump that ugly wing.

OK at the risk of exposing myself to abuse I actually don't mind that wing!
Now...it will look much better with the right rims (standing straight up and down) and some lowering.

It does match the front of the car, which does not match anything else, so there is that. Sort of completes the "WTF" look.

ETA: There are some extremely wide motorcycle "spheres" that would look better on some of those "stanced" things.

IMHO that TRD wing looks fantastic, especially on a white 86. @Killerbee has some great photos of his car with that wing here: http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=22222

After seeing Killerbee's car up close I have a craving for a white GT86 with the full (EDM/JDM) TRD package... And I'd buy one if it wasn't for...
1) I have developed a deep relationship with my black GT86 and can't bear the thought of getting rid of it.
2) The TRD package is very expensive, I can't justify spending that much money on looks on a car I fell in love with mostly for how it drives.

But I salute AeroToy for his choice and look forward to seeing his car up close when he's finishied doing his mods :-)
