I am now getting a new wing for my car because mine was broken off.

That is my civic and wing.
Please post pics of wings or links of pics so I can get some ideas.

Thanks
Derek

derek I would say go back w/ a stock spoiler unless you have a liking for a single low profile Aluminum wing...

Just my $.02 for you...;)

Don't worry. I WILL NOT....put a wing on that is over half way up the back of my window. I refuse to have a wing that is too big. No point. I think about 5-6" tall is my limit. I hate those guys that put huge wings on thier cars, or wings that go over their roof, or those big 2 or 3 stage wings. Dumb and usless if ya ask me.

Well Derek, since you're looking for opinions, I say go back to stock. I'm really not a huge fan of the type of wing you had before it broke off. The stock wing looks much cleaner to me.

Whats the point in putting a wing on a rear wheel drive car that doesn't go anywhere? I doubt half the rustangs or slowmaros need them either.

thats BS... A FWD car benefits from downforce just as much as a RWD car does... But if you do something with the back.. You need to do something with the front as well... Not all wings are functional, some are just pointless. Its the same with a RWD car also..

What's the point of coming to this board and trolling it? Do you really not have anything better to do with your life? I guess since your POS is broken down you'll come here to beat on us who have cars that work. Get a life.:rolleyes:

I like the low profile ones derek. Stock preferably or even the Si wing isn't too hateful.... Your wing was nice. What happened that it broke?

A little uneducated? You obviously have no concept of aerodynamics. :rolleyes:
I'm not saying that all of us are running cars that need it, but hell neither are you. The spoiler on your Camaro serves no purpose other than looks.
Some people like the "show" aspect more than "go". Just deal with it in a respectful manner.

Respectful for a Camero owner to a honda owner is just unspeakable...they like you said are "A little uneducated" They have the whole 4cyl vs. 8cyl idea in their tiny little brains and can't seem to figure out that well our little 4 cyl we can make them fast. So until your going to bash honda's on a honda board, learn a little so you can make a decent post and have some respect.
oh and BTW some one vandalised my car and broke my wing.
