XDEEDUBBX 05-18-2006, 11:07 AM why 2 threads about your wing? josh989 05-18-2006, 11:10 AM I really can't stand big wings crisis 05-18-2006, 11:16 AM GL not getting flamed a million times. You're a brave man. Cattywampus 05-18-2006, 11:20 AM That wing is incase he breaks down. He can use it as a handle to push it then. Just kidding. I dont like it. I think it needs to be lower. Mugatu 05-18-2006, 11:25 AM that's a nice third row of seating you got there. it's great on those sunny days when you can get 2 people to sit back there and have their hair blowing in the wind. XDEEDUBBX 05-18-2006, 11:26 AM hahaha Cattywampus 05-18-2006, 11:31 AM that's a nice third row of seating you got there. it's great on those sunny days when you can get 2 people to sit back there and have their hair blowing in the wind. Wouldnt that be called stadium seating then :rollingla jonyjoe 05-18-2006, 11:37 AM YOu can do BBQ at the back too......... rickeo 05-18-2006, 11:52 AM "the airport.. its that way..." "your wing, its LARGE" :gotrice: Rhawb 05-18-2006, 11:58 AM So what track do you run it at? I probably would have done suspension mods first if I were racing, but that's just me. rob.rotor 05-18-2006, 12:02 PM You really like that? Looks to 'ricey' for my tastes. STREET RACING IS BAD MK 05-18-2006, 12:05 PM I like the wing, it's just to high for me. If it was half that high I would like. bao0518 05-18-2006, 12:13 PM everyone have their own opinion and they own way of doing mods. you only do mod because you like what you see...i like it. it will look more complete when i have the body kit on....thanks for all the input Jedi54 05-18-2006, 12:23 PM umm, I don't like GT wings at all, especially when the car is bone stock. BlueEyes 05-18-2006, 12:30 PM everyone have their own opinion and they own way of doing mods. you only do mod because you like what you see...i like it. it will look more complete when i have the body kit on....thanks for all the input No, no then it will look like the car of someone with no clue what the term 'performance' means. See you at the 3fast3furious debut. maybeashinka? 05-18-2006, 12:34 PM disgusting velociti 05-18-2006, 12:42 PM no. just...no. QBallz 05-18-2006, 12:43 PM Is that a bench for tailgating parties? model_no15 05-18-2006, 12:44 PM The wing is nice, it just needs a bodykit and some rims to complement it HolyCross05 05-18-2006, 12:45 PM That is officially the ugliest 8 I've ever seen in my life. Why in God's name would you ever add a wing like that to a stock car? Elara 05-18-2006, 12:50 PM guys, be nice. you don't have to like it as long as he does. SlowLude 05-18-2006, 01:00 PM This car needs some serious body work. The back is way too heavy. 1st thing to do is to get a body kit followed by some CLEAR CORNERS followed by some rimssss and it should look half decent. time4akshun 05-18-2006, 01:03 PM Would like to see the rest of your body kit to see how it balances out. Good luck... Time Ike 05-18-2006, 01:29 PM Man there are a lot of ricers floating around here lately. SlowLude 05-18-2006, 01:35 PM ^ Totally. The height of that wing reminds me of an EVO. (Or an STI for that matter.) ;) L8APEX 05-18-2006, 02:27 PM it needs the widebody kit, the 3 rotor motor, full suspension, racing slick tires, a roll cage and a good driver, then it would look like it belonged back there. Not really sure why this would be the first mod, but hey, it's your car. NgoRX8 05-18-2006, 02:35 PM Man there are a lot of ricers floating around here lately. hahaha, i agree BlueEyes 05-18-2006, 02:35 PM it needs the widebody kit, the 3 rotor motor, full suspension, racing slick tires, a roll cage and a good driver, then it would look like it belonged back there. Not really sure why this would be the first mod, but hey, it's your car. But if it had all that, they'd use a real wing not some ebay special. zoned 05-18-2006, 02:57 PM to each his own. I saw a dude with a 1x4 wood spoiler riding down the road the other day. It was sick! phroztbyt3 05-18-2006, 03:03 PM buddy.. the airport is about 5 miles back alfy28 05-18-2006, 03:11 PM that is why i like the forums, it's free comedy. any how if you like then more power to yah. :rock: nez 05-18-2006, 03:12 PM hurrrry take it off@! L8APEX 05-18-2006, 03:14 PM funny how bad threads, or people with bad ideas get so much attention, but a good idea, or a good thread, seems to go un-noticed. BlueEyes 05-18-2006, 03:15 PM example? Whitey 05-18-2006, 04:21 PM MY EYES ARE BLEEDING!!!! WHAT DID I JUST LOOK AT?!?!?!?! Seriously though, you're off to a good start.....now all you need is the hood intake and parachute --->:dragster: BlueEyes 05-18-2006, 04:23 PM hurrrry take it off@! Do you want it? should balance out those canards nicely ;) I AM THE RED WORM 05-18-2006, 04:34 PM WOAH! ... dude! that's an aggressive wing for a car that doesn't even have any suspension work on it. Hope your car's mad sleeper status. crimson-rain 05-18-2006, 04:52 PM http://www.rx8club.com/showthread.php?t=65397&highlight=import+tuner Make it look like this, or something similar. Just complete the look. Do what you feel like doing because almost all of the 8s I've seen in magazines had wings. RE Amemiya, JIC, shaw in Import Tuner, that carbon fiber one in PAS, FEED, etc. It's your car so do your thing. Your car just looks incomplete right now. If people think it's rice, add chicken and beer ie just complete the look. jmaluso 05-18-2006, 05:02 PM yuck!@ Dro 05-18-2006, 06:34 PM That wing is opprobrious, I feel sorry for your trunk. :confused: GalaxyGrayRx8 05-18-2006, 06:47 PM umm, I don't like GT wings at all, especially when the car is bone stock. My thoughts... Detrich 05-18-2006, 06:48 PM hey bao, i bought my 8 at alhambra mazda too! so, at least we have that in common. :) congrats on the car and the new wing. i have the stock one and am very happy with it- tho a lotta guys at the local meets in socal prefer the ms wing. all good. dillsrotary 05-18-2006, 06:52 PM boeing just called, they don't like it. lazi 05-18-2006, 07:21 PM hahah, i knew this was going to happen once i saw the pictures of his car lol Roto8 05-18-2006, 07:50 PM So thats who stole the wing off the new A-380 Airbus. http://www.airbus.com/en/aircraftfamilies/a380/ \\Konig\\ 05-18-2006, 09:22 PM Whoaa thats a big wing on a completely stock 8... I'm sure it will look somewhat more balanced when you get the body kit put on though. What body kit are you putting on? painter1 05-18-2006, 09:33 PM alright... I think people have bashed him enough.. give the guy a break.. Its his car let him do what he wants. BlueEyes 05-18-2006, 09:37 PM Nobody's stopping him. Ike 05-18-2006, 09:47 PM alright... I think people have bashed him enough.. give the guy a break.. Its his car let him do what he wants. If I open a thread and have to look at this shit then I'm going to give him a piece of my mind ;) ColtSwitch 05-18-2006, 09:56 PM gotta get the flux capacitor first! Mugatu 05-18-2006, 10:05 PM gotta get the flux capacitor first! that's funny coming from someone labeling their 8 'Mazdaspeed' when there's nothing Mazdaspeed about it. BigOLundh 05-18-2006, 10:14 PM everyone have their own opinion and they own way of doing mods. you only do mod because you like what you see...i like it. it will look more complete when i have the body kit on....thanks for all the inputThat is why you do the body kit first, and wing second... otherwise in the meantime your driving around looking like an idi*t. -hS Rootski 05-18-2006, 10:25 PM that's funny coming from someone labeling their 8 'Mazdaspeed' when there's nothing Mazdaspeed about it. Can't really tell from the angle, but it might have the MS nose. Mugatu 05-18-2006, 11:12 PM Can't really tell from the angle, but it might have the MS nose. nope, it has the stock nose with the front aero lip. staticlag 05-18-2006, 11:34 PM WOAH! ... dude! that's an aggressive wing for a car that doesn't even have any suspension work on it. Hope your car's mad sleeper status. Exactly my thoughts, Dude, just take it off. RX4life 05-19-2006, 04:55 AM That is officially the ugliest 8 I've ever seen in my life.

I have a Nismo Rx8 btw . ColtSwitch 05-19-2006, 09:39 AM infact there is alot of mazdaspeed parts on my car. I updated my sig for the haters. Sorry i've only had it for 8 days. Give me another week or two, jdm parts are hard to find and get. all love! :grouphug: Sea Ray 05-19-2006, 09:52 AM He saw too many reruns of Fast and Furious it looks like. I thought our cars looked unique enough without mounting stuff that screams look at me. To each their own is what is great about this country, BUT............................................... ....................... I guess I'll never understand????? UFGator12 05-19-2006, 04:23 PM That looks awful. I don't even know what to say... Normally, when I don't like a mod, I will say to his or her own. But, this mod sucks so much that I can't even bring myself to say that. Please, take it off. You are embaressing my 8 all the way out here in GA with that thing on.

Have to be careful with that. Not my taste, though. Just my $.02. Raptor2k 05-19-2006, 06:07 PM alright... I think people have bashed him enough... ... THAT WING IS FUGLY!!!!!!

Slam it to the ground 2. put a kit on it or at least an OEM aero package If you do at least these 2 things then maybe it will look ok. The spoiler is just not flowing with your car. Post some pics once you get step 1 and 2 complete. NgoRX8 05-20-2006, 06:45 AM yes you need ground effects to even try to compliment with the height you got on that spoiler. IZoomZoomI 05-20-2006, 03:22 PM 5 pages and no reply from the thread starter. I wouldn't reply either, if I got flamed this bad.

IZoomZoomI 05-20-2006, 09:20 PM What kind of Tire shine you useing there bub? it's called no touch "wet&protect" ......bub. :scratchhe BigOLundh 05-21-2006, 08:25 PM 1.

Post some pics once you get step 1 and 2 complete. I agree, except an OEM kit is not enough to match that wing. He's going to need to get a VERY AGRESSIVE kit if he wants it to match. This thread is a good example of why i didn't post pics of my wheels for a month, until i had the body kit put on. 19" Bling Rims + OEM Appearance Package = :puke: Same as, Gigantic Spoiler + Stock RX-8 = :puke: -hS BigOLundh 05-21-2006, 08:26 PM Ladies and gentlemen, the only person in the world with the MS CAI installed.

G3tR3DDY2GR3DDY 05-23-2006, 11:46 PM you guys are so harsh on the man haha... i do agree though. Get a body kit, upgrade some suspension, and ... get rid of the wing and it will look good lol... Winfree 05-24-2006, 12:13 AM The good new is most people won't know what it is And if they do .. well it can't hurt them! toxin440 05-24-2006, 03:16 PM I hate to jump in and flame a fellow 8 owner, but by adding that wing to your BONE stock car... you just assed it all up man. What if any performance incrase does it offer? None so we are going to assume you did this for looks. If you like it thats all that really matters, but thats just "too fast and too furious" for me. haha When I saw the pics of your car, or cars similar with all that crap bolted to them, it reminds me of some little 7 year old kid that never gets enough attention and is always running around screaming "look at me!!! look at mee!!!!" Simplicity and Subtlety are Key man.. ditch the wing and go for something less obnoxious. |
