thanks for your comment, it'll help me with my decision!

Unless you're actually tracking/racing your car, don't do it!

radiantm3 · 12-04-2012, 08:51 PM

I think I like edge better. Seems like it would be more sturdy as well, but I'm no engineer.

I like the edge mount, but only on dedicated track/race car.

right .. form follows function is when true engineering beauty comes through!!

unless you need it for a function (aka track / aero on a dedicated track car) ... then DONT DO IT MAN!!

kchu221 · 12-04-2012, 11:18 PM

thanks guys for the votes and comments, but right now im actually debating whether to just install the wing or go with something else...

roastbeef · 12-05-2012, 01:22 AM

wheres the "don't do it" option?

Thanks Guys!

Don't do it man! Not on a streetcar. Save the wings for all the Hondas.

JK. Put the money aside in your supercharger cash accumulation account.

haha thanks man, i have couple other plans before i blow my car...

Robz26 · 12-05-2012, 01:10 PM

If you have to do it, edge. But unless it's a dedicated track car, and has other stylings to make it look like a true race car, I WOULD NOT DO EITHER.
