dont do it! keep the spoiler

andyneed4speed · 1st November 2006, 09:48 PM

I've had my aftermarket "wing" on-off-on-off-on my GTT since I bought the car in April - I've been painting the spoiler cos it was a bit tatty.

I still can't decide which is better but I've had several positive comments about the car looking smooth/clean without it. It certainly looks more "competition/aggressive" (OR chavvy depending on your point of view regarding aftermarket wings

) with it on.

Well I've spent money painting it so it's staying on for a while - and then I don't have spend some more dealing with the holes in the boot lid

THE problem is there are SO many GTR wings on $hit pail Hondas and such that it looks like you trying to hard to look good... where-as people miss the point totally that a GTR wing comes from a GTR....sad!

Looks totally ass without one. Atleast run something but dont leave it naked.

I disagree...the standard low 34 GTR wing suits the GTT much better than the GTT wing which I just dont like the look of...

Look odd

just like Supra dont look right without the spoiler

Here is my car Wingless

Here is my car with a Wing. (need to be painted if you ask me)

I think both look have its own charm. But I do like the R32 with something in the back. However, with a smooth booth it does look hard also.

RBnemesis13B · 2nd November 2006, 02:59 PM

I voted good cause either way they look good but with their spoilers they look better.

Eikichi · 2nd November 2006, 03:46 PM

Skylines need a spoiler, totally look "mean" on the car

IMHO, Skylines, Supras, WRX & Evos (dunno if I missed some) are the only cars to be allowed to have a spoiler

andyneed4speed · 2nd November 2006, 05:39 PM

OK, here's my GTT.....

Without wing (crappy phone pic)

With "Diecock Speed Racing" (I think) wing - taken tonight with flash (bit dark sorry!)

If I was to take this wing off I'd replace it with an R34 GTR wing - much better than the GTT standard

I remember a post from a new GTR owner returning to Sweden, half way across the North sea he unbolted his metal wing and chucked it over board

SENSASIAN · 6th November 2006, 12:08 PM

Yep agreed ! First day I took my GTR to work they all took the pi$$ out of me saying I had a stupid rear wing (standard with nismo lip), they didnt understand that it was standard.

In my country, wing = beer counter

Thanks to all scoobies

But unfortunatly all Bimmers with wings (wich seems to be the new trand) are looking cheap, the GTR-wing is allways autentic and spot on.
