Definate on the wing. Give it back to the Civic owner you took it from. Not sure how I feel on the wheels.

u guys have to understand something. the wing i didn't buy primarily for looks. that wing gives me sooooooo much more downforce. it is noticeable at 60 mph. plus i am constantly out at the track. i know it doesn't really flow with the car and it has a 2f2f feel to it, i joke about it with my friends all the time. but it serves a purpose. and the rims. they are track rims. the red was just a small touch to make me stand out.
more than the stocker? in any case, I am glad you bought it for function vs "wanting to look like an airplane" feel

Doodie for the street but ok for the track if you think it's more functional.

I don't think the wing works since you don't have a kit to balance the cosmetics. I understand the whole function over form thing though. Also, the red kinda works. In the front it's a little weird but maybe you should get a red diamond star badge for the grille.

That wing is the same wing on this evo VII which i think looks pretty nice.

yeah, the wing on the Evo 7 looks better because he has a nicer front bumper, so the lines of the car go better with the wing. is that the Chockettes/GP Sports front bumper? also, those Volk GT-7's don't fit the style of the Evo IMO. they look better on a sportier car, like a 350Z, G35 coupe etc. don't get me wrong, i still don't like the wing. also, that Evo 7 is slammed!!! the rear is tucked in. not my style

I for one think your car is nice, very different in style than most evo owners in here, but hey that means you'll only stand out more. BTW, what size rim are those TE-37s and the offset?

Stock wing, powder coat wheels silver or black. But these are just my opinions.

i think the wing is fine, the wheels would look better if they were a dirtier, darker red. like maroon or sedona red.

get a body kit and then it would look great with that wing....its the same theory where you can't toss 18s on a car and not lower it without it looking dumb

You're car looked alot better one month ago. Great choice on the te-37's, but i cant agree that red was a good color to paint those rims. Looks super ricey in my opinion. As for the wing, the stock one is too nice to mess with. I understand the performance over looks thing, but I cant see the gain in actual downforce being worth it. Im not trying to flame you either man, to each his own. I just think your car looked nicer with the stock wing, volks, and the red tails. Doesnt get any better than that. Best of luck though!

the look of the wing is alright, but i think it's worth it for it's functionality. the red rims are kinda iffy but again, good for it's functionality as racing rims
