Help me choose on a wing to put on the FD

bop_rocco · 04-23-2008, 11:44 AM

I am trying to decide on using the R1 wing i have sitting at home or get a 99spec wing or the FEED type II wing. I will be getting a carbon Rear diffuser soon and I may get a hood not sure about carbon or not.

this is the car currently

and us129photos and killboy ill be putting in my order soon!

You all know what the r1 & 99 spec wing looks like so if you dont know about the FEED here it is

R1 wing since you still have the 93-95 front end with a lip.

You need more Exterior parts to make the FEED one work well.

Shineautoproject's low profile wing when it comes out.

i will be making the change to 99 spec front bumper soon after i get the rear diffuser and wing on.

I have found out that the R1 wing and the 99spec wing use the same holes except one. the R1 has 8 bolts and the 99spec has 6. (this is from what i have seen not totally shure though) so i may get the R1 mounted using just those 6 since i have it and so i am able to switch to the 99spec later with no extra hole. But if I go with the feed or shine's low prof wing then ill be screwed

Go with the FEED yo!

And that's a mighty fine tailpipe you got there.

The 99 spec wing is my personal favorite, but the Feed wing is a really nice piece. Whatever works for you though, you have to live with it.

99spec wings are the best on red, black and IBM 7s, but for Montego blue, the only spoiler that looks right is the R1 in my opinion.

do you have shots from the side and rear, and closer shots of the cf front lip? i voted feed.. seems to go with the street look ure putting together

not sure about the diffuser tough i think those look best with gt wings or wingless. amemiya taillight cover seems to go well too

bop_rocco · 04-29-2008, 09:19 AM

I need to take some pics but here are a few from the back and side

am i the only one that thinks the original-designed shine wing looks terrible. the amemiya tail light add on looks a LOT better or even the modified type with the circles cut out, seems to actually flow with the car.

7_rocket · 05-11-2008, 07:55 PM

Go wingless or 99 spec

REVIT93RX7 · 10-28-2008, 09:01 AM

The type RZ wing looks good as well. It reminds me of the Porsche Turbo whaletail albeit a lot smaller.

Proxy One · 02-10-2009, 12:01 PM

Im partial to the 96-98 wing myself if you go stock. To me the 99 wing doesnt flow with the curves of the car and the 93-95 wing is a bit too small and well everyone has it so its good to be different.
