I would just like a clean and subtle look something like this but of course designed for the ft86. I just feel the huge wing takes away from the sleekness of the car but then again its still camoed up so I cant tell for sure

I do agree with you that aftermarket is usually filled with garbage but thats with just about everything aftermarket and cosmetic you just have to pick and choose wisely

Always loved the sagaris it reminds me of a love child of a supra and viper.

I'll take the wonky sideways exhaust please always thought that was such a cool design

I'm hopeful that maybe everyone's wing/no wing discussions can stay here.

Tired of every thread I discuss my visual preferences ending in an argument about wings...

But by god that red one with the wing looks so good lol. If i dont get one with a wing i at least want/think a small duck bill spoiler would also look nice. That red one though is the image that i had in mind for mine @_@ (still wish they did jade mica as a colour tho)

Preferences will break down like this:

Over 35: no wing/spoiler
25-35: probably a wing/spoiler, but not an STI-style
16-25: wing, and supersize it!

Me (over 35), BIG WING!!!

mockngbrd · 12-09-2011, 02:29 AM

i wldn't mind a small lip. but not a fan of a big wing

pr0j · 12-09-2011, 03:15 AM

the low profile spoiler, but on that blue TRD model from that video, man that thing sounds beastly.

Midnight Run · 12-09-2011, 04:50 AM

no big spoiler/wing for me.

2fast4you · 12-09-2011, 05:30 AM

36. TRD lip spoiler for looks... unless track performance necessitates an APR GTC-200 adjustable wing.

blur · 12-09-2011, 08:21 AM

No wing for me, thank you very much. As to the functionality can those with no aerodynamic knowledge please STFU?

Oh and I'm 20, I have no clue why I'm supposed to want a wing lol

I don't think you can pigeonhole everyone like that anymore. Maybe circa 1999, but times have changed.

Personally, I'm not a fan of the frumpy trunk spoiler. It looks jumbled and messes up the styling flow of the rear end. As such, I prefer either nothing or the huge mega-wing. The big wing does look supersized, but if the aero data behind it means same drag and less-lift or downforce, sign me up. Since Gazoo used it in the 24-Nur race, it's possible it's reasonably functional. If it's not, though, clean trunk it is.

On another note, a little Gurney flap might look good. [along the lines of the TVR flap posted]
