    opinion: Aluminum of fiberglass wing?

    alright guyz, gimme a holla. Need to decide on whether to get an aluminum or fiberglass wing?

    Everyone in our group has fiberglass, but I think aluminum would look good. I have a 2002 galant with patriot red paint.

    So tell me what ya think? I wanna stand out in the group. Cause anyone knows that when they see a tricked galant they usually do this :shock: and then

    ok now, gimme some feedback. Gotta make a decision soon; tired of being the one without one and looking like a :retard:

    thanks for the reply

    there are some pretty ugly fiberglass wings out there and there are some nice alluminum ones out there. so yea, gotta see piks of the wings. i mean most of us here prefer the fiberglass but a nice aluminum one would look better than an ugly fiberglass one

    R u meaning that if aluminum, paint it? :?:

    My buddies said instead of Aluminum, get CF cause it will make it look better blended, especially if CF Alezetta tails was added to the car.

    Holla back, & peace

    what are you talking about? he hasn't even shown any pics of a wing yet, but they are ALL tacky? i think a properly placed wing finishes off a car. some cars look dumb without wings.

    I know I'll get stomped for this one, but what about one like the wing on the S2000 in the post in the Other Pics forum? Maybe not as tall, but aluminum brackets and a CF airfoil. Just my .02 Come on, let me have it...

    As far as over the top CF wings go, I like the Universal CF Mega GT Wing from C-wings. Hell, even the name sounds rediculous, but I really like that GT, 24 Hours of Le Mans look...

    that is not the way that spoiler sits on that Celica. the spoilers are ugly but as far as the ones madr for our car. most all universal Glass spoilers that aren't OEM ....most not all are kinda .......Gay

    Aren't wings made for cars that are rear wheel drive? I thought the purpose was to create downforce.

    So, for those of us that have front wheel drive, I think that its best to go with a simple fiberglass wing thats obviously just for show than to be a big poser with an aluminum wing on stilts.

    pretty much all spoilers are tacky. some of the factory smallish ones are okay. the large suckers are hideous no matter who makes them (If I got an evo, id definatly go for the smaller wing).

    I prefer subtlety. A SMALL wing is okay on the right car.
    besides, putting stuff on that actually has a purpose on race cars but is only for show screams "POSER" to me.

    of course, this is only my opinion.

    body kits are meant for "aerodynamics" so everyone with body kits are posers too? CF is meant to lighten a car, how many guys buy it to lighten their galant? its a styling option....not necisarily being a poser or tacky.

    i say go for whatever you want but cf wing wont match cf tails due to the fact that the tails are silver checkers on a black background.
