Lil Batmobile

I just had this new wing put on and all I hear now is WOW that looks like a little batmobile.

Its definitly different, i wasnt sure about it at first but its growing on me.

The place where i bought it got the paint code for the brilliant black and the paint place matched it up really well. Up close though the paint job could be better. I will probably have to take it back a few more times to get it buffed out again.

It's kinda big, but it still beats the crap out of the huge rice wings that are out there...

A bit too big there on the wing, but looks nice on the 8.

I wouldn't put it on my car, but it looks a LOT better than most of the other wings I've seen! Overall it looks a bit big, but still has a nice unique look.

I'm not big on wings either. But it's YOUR car and if you like it, that's all that really matters. You make the payments.....rock on freebird.

Thanks for the feedback. Either you like it or you hate it and im not suprised alot of people dont like it. I didnt like it either at first when i had it put on, but its hard to tell what its gonna look like when your buying out of a magazine. I really wanted something more eclipse gst style but the guy at the shop where i bought it convinced me to give it a try.

The car does get alot of looks though with that wing. Wether there bad or good looks I dont know but everyone wants to race me now and thats a bad thing since mines an automatic.

For those few people intrested in where i got it. I wont waste your time with the name of the shop where i bought it because they will overcharge you and they dont have a website but the place where he ordered it from is on my receipt and I will post it when i find the reciept

Thanks again for the feedback!

Doesn't look too bad IMHO.

Looks very much like the rear spoiler off an AU series Falcon in our local V8Supercar series:



Cheers,

It's a big much IMO. But then again, it's you're car, so who cares what everyone else thinks.

Do you have trouble with every 16 year old in a suped up civic out there wanting to have a run with you?
