Wing Replacement ? ? ?

I de-winged my car last weekend, and although I fabricated some nice matching plugs for the holes left behind I am now leaning towards putting a low profile wing back on for a cleaner look.

I'm wondering if the Lancer wing will fit on our EVOs. Also wanted to see if anyone else knows of other options, for a rear spoiler. I've seen the Batman one and I'll pass on that. The Carbon Fiber rear spoiler Lip looks nice, but it doesn't cover up the holes. I want a wing that covers the holes but is very low profile. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanx

- Steve

03 Evo's had an option for the smaller wing. I think it may have actually been standard for the smaller wings. Just in 03. Anyhow, yes it will fit, but I'm not sure if it uses the existing holes.

It was a standard Lancer three post wing (see below), and I removed the center.

That unit looks excellent! Have you noticed any less attention with it compared to the stock wing?

my-red-rs,
You live in Alpharetta, eh? I live about 20 minutes from there. Maybe you know Dylan that works at Forged Performance with the blue IX?

The CF spoiler is made for the newer (04-06) ralliart lancers so it wouldn't fit perfectly with the lines on an evo trunk. The evo trunk shares the same trunk as the earlier lancers.

The '04 - '07 Ralliart came with no center post. I've been eyeing that wing for a while to tone down the outward appearance of my car since I can't stand the wingless look. I'd love to know if the '04 - '07 wing is a direct fit into the stock mount holes.

N/M saw the post above since I made mine... I guess I'm too slow.

Can we get anymore details on what you've done and what was involved?

As much as eBay parts scare me, there is this: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/TRUNK...3756.m20.l1116

Thanks.

Sorry this site is in Japanese but you can see a picture of a VII GT-A (only automatic EVO):

I guess they used that standard Lancer wing for the GT-A.
