i prefer wing less as well, but if i were to get a wing i'd choose the Wangan wings, they look nice. Choosing a wing and everything i think really deals with your style and taste, i say just do what yo want, it is YOUR car.

Im gonna be the only one in these whole furoms to say this!!!
Aluminum wings will look good seeing as I own a fastback(Oem spoiler getting rusted to hell) I think Aluminum wings where made for fastback cars cuz imo they look good on these kind of cars. The F & F eclipse didnt look bad with this wing but seeing as most of these guys hate rice and aluminum spoilers are associated with Rice they hate it with a passion.

Biggest problem with those spoilers...pointless. They have no use except to "look good"

there are a lot of spoilers that are pointless, that's if you mean that they don't add downforce when you say they are pointless.

Spoilers on 90% of imports are pointless, just style. Do you really think any of those civics with 5 foot alluminum wings really need downforce? Stock b16 with an exhaust tips dont make that much power, despite what your friends keep telling you. If you have a stock 240, its not going to need downforce. If you have a 240 with an sr20, its not going to need downforce. Your cars aren't going as fast as you think. All of those wings do nothing.

And U_NeeKz, those wings don't look good. They were popular for a while because they were a new thing, now they are old. Want a sure way to know if something you put on your car is old, played out crap? Check if APC makes a replica of it.

why do ppl keep using the stupid movie f&f as a reference, **** THEM. im tired of hearing that thing. everyone keeps mentioning it every forum i goto. especially noobs. f&f SUCKS.
anyways, ER34 wing might look good on the hatch. i still need to find a pic of the wing and photoshop it onto my car.

Oh what import racing movie do you love?? Redline

Really these people are so biased, Who cares what spoiler they place in there car as long as there happy with it I swear its pathetic how people bash others for trying to do something unique, When I see a car with decals and big rims and spoiler and a nice paint job I dont go "what a ricer" I give them props just cuz a civic is not as fast doesnt mean you cant have fun driving it. Oh well who cares you guys just keep your cars looking stock and miss out on the second looks that most makes you feel like your driving something beautiful not just another one of those.
Im personally thinking of putting some black tribunal decals all on the side, Sleepy eyes, and maybe after I remove the rear wiper and spoiler I might put a nice sleek aluminum spoiler my s13 will look really unique and that is what I want.
