D1 Drift wing style
Adjustable heights (2) and angle (3 on each height).
Measurments are: 1555mm length x 250mm wide (main body)
Height (min) 250mm (flat)
is it too high for 8??
thanks

In pic 2 it looks like the center of the wing is too tall, might cause a lifting effect. Is that why the moon roof is open in pic 3?
If it was a bit shorter I think it would look better and perform better.
I am aware that most wings perform better if they are higher than the roof of the car but this one with the angle in the middle like that should probably be below the roofline.
Or if the angle can be turned so the front of the wing is lower than the back. Is that possible?

yeah.. it does look like the wing is higher than the roof and that's why Im still thinking should I put this on my 8 or not...
The wing is look really nice and unique but TRU681 do you mind if you lower the front and take a another nice pic for me to have a look??
Thank you so much

I agree with moostafa, the huge wings are a little ricey. I saw a nice spoiler on street concepts site, here's the link:

You'd be surprised to know how many of those get sold in a month :P Lots of Cavaliers, Neons, and old school Mustang owners have bought them.. <ahem>..

Not my cup of tea... but PLEASE paint it.. IMHO nothing looks worse then carbon fiber on a painted body. Every time I see a civic, with a carbon fiber hood, wing, etc, my first reaction is "ohh they havn't painted their car yet..."

Hey, Keny, here's a couple of pics I took recently of the wing after I angled it down. I took those pictures in a hurry because I was late for a football game with my friends so these pics might not have the angles u wanted but here it is........
