SUP EVERYONE. I am now looking for a wing for my car and i don't know which one too get. It seems like i am always looking for something and getting everyones opinion about. Well, if you don't know by now, i have a burgendy 4 door 95 cord. I currently have a stock wing on the car and now i am looking for something different. I was thinking about an aluminum or carbon fiber wing, but i am not too sure. Tell me what you think would be good !

IMO, unless you have a very elaborate body kit, a wing wont go well with the car..

Wings I like: Stock, or none at all.

Wings I don't like: big alum wings, huge wings, super rounded wings, cf wings.

That's just my opinion though.

in that case, you should first get the kit, then think about the wing..

Well, if you're going with a kit, that changes my opinion a little. A slightly larger/more radical wing will work if you have a nice kit. Just stay away from the triple decker stuff, and I still think that alum wings don't look that great. Have you considered just shaving the wing altogether for a clean look? That looks good with a kit too IMHO.

Yeah, i have thought a little bit into having the wing shaved. I think that would also look nice. its either i shave it, put a different one on or keep the one i got.

When you reply, there is an attach image option. Click it, find the image on your computer, and hit attach. It has to be a .jpg and within certain size restrictions though. It will tell you if its too big.

Well, here is the car. It is pretty stock for the outside for right now. The mods include apc clears all the way around, apc altezza's, apc hyperwhites all the way around and 35/20 tint. (did not work)

the thing is saying that my pic is too big yet my pic is less than the max file size and smaller than the max dimensions

if you don't mind me asking, what did you use to size the pic down, i tried so many things and it would not do it.

I used photoshop. You resized it leaving lots of white space still in the image. Also, 400x600 means 400 pixels wide and 600 tall. I think you were doing it backwards.

And as for the wing and kit, make sure to get wheels first, and I'd go with a shaved look on your car. Nice and clean that way.

You know, that is a crazy thing, i used photoshop to try to resize the thing.

as for the rims, what do you think would look alright, chrome or silver. I was looking into the motegi mr7 in silver.

Get silver rims, I don't like the whole chrome thing.

In photoshop, don't select anything like you did. Go to image size... under the image menu (i think its the image menu) and the resize it from there.

So you think that the silver mr7 will look alright?
