Wingless looks better...why would you want you car to lock like a cheap lancer?

I agree, the big wing looks the best. I did this mostly because I'm starting a new job and don't need the boy racer look and going wingless would have meant having covered up holes, or spending money for a new trunklid, which is a waste IMO. This required no modification or shoddy looking coverup and was free, can't beat that

No? How bout the RS, is it any less of an Evo without the stock wing (BTW this wing came stock on an 03 Evo)

no argument there, but I was toning down the aggression

There's really not that much wheel gap. Hard to tell from the pick, but the car is on a hill, so the weight is shifted to the back and the passenger side of the car making it look that way

The same reason many other people do, to avoid the attention from ricers (based on your avatar, you are one of the ones I'm speaking of ) and cops. Also the reason I went with TB.


In person, it actually really reminds me of a lower version of the Evo X wing.

compared to the front, the back of the evo is already lacking in aggressiveness somewat. now remove the stock wing and its like declawing your cat.

I'm not one to talk much on the forums (yet) and I don't normally comment about someone's ride because i'm not too picky, but the wing just doesn't look right on the evo. I would understand going wingless or getting an aftermarket wing thats more low profile (Are there any besides lip kits???), but that's my opinion and your right to do whatever you want with YOUR car. Other than that, looking good bro.

IMHO (and it's a bit hard to tell, because you hardly have any pics of the new wing), the low rise makes it look like your standard grocery getter. i'm definitely looking for other options for wings to try to keep the cops away, but i'm not sure any other raised wing (x/c maybe the evo x wing) keeps the car from looking silly and plain.

Boy lot of haters. To those that are saying it loses it's look and its agressiveness without the wing, I agree. At the same time, I've driven a car with a large wing on it for 5 years and aside from needing something more subtle, I am ready for something more subtle. Oh and you're all crazy if you think that the Evo ever looks GOOD (A 2gb DSM will always look sexier than an Evo). It's an ugly box regardless of what wing is on it. What looks good are the FMIC, the big brakes, the wheels, and the Recaros. Finally, I don't need attention on the road and I like being able to see out my back window as well as the fact that it isn't common on Evo's.
