Re: Real JDM Spoiler Installed. Pics inside. 56k Take a Hike.

Sorry to hear that Crazy Pilot. Where do you live ?

I live in Chicago which is notorious for potholes and I dont have any problems at all with my 18" Axis Decades Maxi Lip's.

I watch for holes though but I do that with my 2008 Wrangler anyway.

Re: Real JDM Spoiler Installed. Pics inside. 56k Take a Hike.

8 months of the year I'm in Thunder Bay, Ontario. There are roads in that town that I refuse to drive down with the SVX, even with my stock wheels/snow tires.

These peripheral discussions and observations and ratings are not really off topic. I'm pretty sure Mike is OK about people expressing an opinion, good or bad.

So let's not make it personal when there is no need for it. First Amendment, and all that.

K?

Re: Real JDM Spoiler Installed. Pics inside. 56k Take a Hike.

Ive gone back and looked at these pictures again and have concluded that I am going to buy this wing. I have always wanted 2 wings that I like and I may have just found the 2nd one I am looking for.

However, I am going to have my fiberglass guy someway somehow extend the sides further up towards the front to make it blend in with the trunk more and hopefully look a little more like the prototype JDM picture with the silver car you see all the time. Maybe this is not possible, the pictures leave me with a few questions.

This wing, while being rounded like the stock wing, is as high as I would want a rounded wing to get.

Anything taller, like my custom wing for instance, has to have sharper angles to match the angles of the car, like my custom wing.

Anyone know where I can buy this wing and how much it will cost ?

Btw, redlightingsvx, your paint job sucks. You picked the wrong red color. Iits not the original red like I have, its too bright. The same old stock wheels are boring, black and red looks awful. Your car is boring and it sucks.

Sorry Mike but I need to set things straight. It is the original Barcelona red which is DARKER than yours my pics make it look brighter than it is. I Don't have stock wheels and i'm leaving it at that.

Mike did you have to do any wet sanding and buffing to get the black to shine with the rest of your trunk lid?
