Hey all, just wondering if anyone could post pics of after market (OEM knockoff) wings?

The original owner of my car had the small Lancer wing installed instead of the full size wing, so i'm in the market for a full wing. There are a few on Ebay, but i'm not sure of the quality or construction, and i'm rather wary of buying one without seeing it installed or a review of it.

Anyone tried this route? Or anyone know of a good place to get an OEM wing in tarmac black?

Thanks all!

Buy the real thing, its going to cost you much more but you will appricate it much more. Knock off wings are not true 100% carbonfiber like the OEM ones are. They are made of ABS plastic and fiberglass/carbonfiber(if your lucky). At highspeeds they will flex,rattle and just plain suck. Id say go to your dealer but its going to be an arm and a leg. To check if its a OEM or not, look on the insdies of the 2 pieces that stand up, they should be pushpins if im not mistaken, the knock off's are screws.

Problem with going to the dealer is that im in Belgium. Im not sure there is a dealer around here worth a damn, much less one that has an Evo on the lot.

Still trying to find an OEM one, i really didnt want the abs pos, but its hard finding one in the right color, much less someone willing to ship

Good looking out, i sent him a pm.

So I guess no one is running those ****ty abs ones, probably a good idea im sure. Hopefully I can find an OEM one and call it a day
