Talk to pinoyESV6 (Allan) He has one and almost convinced me to get it when I saw it for the first time

Hey man check with JCwhitney. When you read like tuner magazines there is usually a JCwhitney or summit page(s) and you'll see some of the terminator Spoilers, Combat and there is a touring spoiler and it's actually on a Galant if you look at the pic.

yeah i seen that pic thanks, i know that it looks good on our cars, i just need to know what length i should get. im probably gonna get the 63 inch one, i'd rather it stick out a lil more than be too close or even above the back. thanks ya'll

Yeah Factory but for the Touring your gonna go further so I guess 63" would be cool.

i really can't tell u what width to get it. i know with mine its a li inward, almost flush with the body. some like it where the ends of the spoiler stick out past the body of the car. really up to you. but yea, ot measure, just measure the rear end of ur car, not just the trunk lid. and that will give u the size for it. mine i believe is 58" or 60" not 100% sure but yea, thats what i did the day i bought it to measure.

another thing u have to think of is the weight. them torsion bars are not gonna do anything to hold the trunk lid up. wear a helmet when opening hte trunk lol. so u might also wanna look into some ways of holding hte trunk lid up when ur car is not on level ground or when the wind is blowing.

also pick a good quality spoiler. i've seen many touring wings start to sag within months of being purchased. mine is about 3? years old and i haven't had any sagging issues yet.

i know this will be asked, where did i get mine? i got mine on sale at a local speed shop. the regular price for my wing was almost 400 dollars mine was on sale for a lil less than 200. so yea shop around.

verywhite01 has that wing, i think it looks much better when it has an overhang on it. It make it look serious, not like a toy wing.

thanks for the pics and info ya'll. i think im gonna go wit the 63 inch length cause i want it to hang over a bit. i just hope it doesnt hang too much and end up lookin silly. thanks peeps.

Get the 58 dont go 63 its will hang too far over you will be fishing and hit everything, the 58 over hangs but if you look at the rear of the car where the tail lights are it is wider than the top where the trunk sits. Tail light to tail light is longer than if you were to measere from the edge to edge at the top where the trunk is.
