It's like chopping some guy's nuts off and stapling them to your girlfriend.

To be helpful, the base is about 52" across. I can't really measure it as it's on the car and quite difficult. The max width of the wing looks to be around 54" give or take a couple.

True, "save some money for a down payment on a new car" isn't in the DSM vocab.

ah man, this is one of those times where it sucks to have a vivid imagination this is horrible, but funny as hell at the same time! It irks me to see an Evo wing on anything other than an Evo. I don't even want to see it on a base Lancer because I know they are posing. Its a wing with straight lines, and you want to put in on a car with only curves. Remember, nuts stapled to your girlfriend.

Yeah thats my thoughts on this exactly, i hate seeing mismatched parts thrown together. Especially trying to make your 3g eclipse resemble an Evo.
