Talking SupraVX

alright so almost immediatly after one of my friends saw my car, he decided that i needed a supra wing instead of the stock wing. so i have been on him to photoshop one on to my car and he finally got to doing it today. now the sheen on it does not look right on the wing, but hey it is just photoshop. but yeah i was wondering if anyone else had ever thought of this. well tell me what you think.

EW!

It's fun to look at to remind myself how nice the stock SVX looks Really though, the Supra wing is meant for a curvy car, the SVX is an angular car, and so I don't think there is any way it could possibly look good. Something like a T shaped wing *MIGHT* work and not look bad if you really want to go for the ricer look.

See this pic to see much it contradicts with the styling http://www.subaru-svx.net/forum/atta...&postid=112960

I'm sorry, but the Supra wing is just wrong for the SVX. Check out the JDM thread that Porter started to see what the JDM SVX wing looks like. Dayle is now selling them state-side.

The JDM wing is a completely different story. If my SVX didn't already have the stock spoiler and I had some cash I would definately buy the JDM wing.

If I can find some time, I'll have the JDM wing on my SVX at Reading.

I think you need to be beaten with a pushbroom.

Hypothetically speaking of course. :P But seriously, that's just freaking gross. Look at the SVX. It's kinda angular, and NOT very swoopy. Now look at the supra. Very swoopy, not angular.

THUS, a supra wing would not work at ALL with the rest of the SVXs design. Please, for the love of god and all that is holy, do NOT do it. (fig of speech).

Here you go, a real picture of an SVX with a Supra wing, not just a chop. And I must agree with Beast's statement of EW!

The JDM is definitely a nice spoiler, better than any other aftermarket spoiler available in this country. But personally, I like the stock USDM wing, just pushed back a couple of inches.
