You win the opportunity to be next week's sandwich!


I was left out on the inside joke so I'm just assuming that sandwich = flavor of the week
Or something to that extent...

For my height, visibility is a little worse with the MS spoiler vs the stock one...
but not much.
It does not bother me at all.. plus the MS looks sooo much better.. IMHO.

sandwich (v.) = music between the sheets...

Here's a picture I took recently for those considering the MS wing.

Don't know why, but every time I see the stock wing, I think late 90's Eclipse! Am I the only one?
Needless to say, mine is the one in the back with the MS wing.

Tell `em you didn't mean it.
Damn, you haven't been here that long and you already know about that story?

Your 8 looks great Jedi! I wish we could have met at SS8.

Thanks Dazy! I'm totally bummed I didn't get to meet up with you and some of the others that came out from TX.


You'll just have to come up with an excuse to come out to Cali again and you can go cruising with us out in Malibu!

Actually I find the wing kind of a blessing, as it is the exact height of most SUV headlights, so it blocks out the annoying glare at night without blocking the halo, so you can still see cars behind you. And it looks sextacular.

looks nice dazygirl . sux about your winshield though. is it fixed yet? you made this thread back in july lol .

as far as glare through the rear winshield goes, just go w/limo tint guys! it works wonders for all that glare, but if you have your windows rolled down at night (like i usualy do), then the glare coming off your mirror(s) won't help you any, lol

as for not being able to tell if you have a cop behind you or not, it should be pretty easy really. any crown victoria (if the cops in your area drive crown victorias) have the two very large and noticable orange side markers on the inside of the headlights.

It's all thanks to the guy who ACTUALLY installed the Celica wing on his RX-8
