sawp the spoiler? - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #75177 25 posts Started by Justin8358
the questions in the title.
what do you think about an aluminum spoiler instead of the stock one?
IMO I dont like them, assuming your talking about a middle posted more "aggressive" spoiler. Some cars car pull it off, but i dont think the celi is one of them. I would think about gt4 blocks or a hiro spoiler, again assuming your looking for bigger more aggressive look smile.gif I like the hiro personally

I've spilt my heart into this car :) And I don't ever plan to stop- 6GC for Life ->Semper Fi<1994 Cupra :p 3sgte1995 Celica ST DD1969 Chevelle SSalllll balls. P2 approved!
no, it really doesn't look that good on a celica IMO. celica's all curves, the wing is all straight. not a good match

agreed, but everyone has different tastes smile.gif I know people hate my kit, but i still love it none the less smile.gif
My friend just sold his CF spoiler with that look for $50, like 2 days ago, too bad, i coulda got it for you cheap.
But yeah the celi and its curves are nice smile.gif But again i wouldnt let us tell you what to do tongue.gif, although it seems pretty pricey.
And expect a long wait period from that company, I waited a month for something from them, but i have also been waiting for my CF hood and supra SS for over a month now too frown.gif think i have bad luck frown.gif

im currently saving for a carbon fiber lift back. mine has un-curable rust and carbon fiber is only 150$ more than a new one.
but i figured seance the new one wont have any holes in it, i could get a new wing and not have to worry about it fitting or anything

Agreed. IMO, the GT-Four wing is too much like the stock Supra wing. I'm actually thinking of getting the Eurou riser blocks for the 2 post from vincent's site. They look pretty good and not too tall.

taking too long to mod since '09June '12 COTM'95 AT200
i agree that some cant pull it off, but whenever i picture a celi with that style of spoiler on it it reminds me of the orange supra from the fast and the furious, which i love by the way!
If you were to rock any type wing like that it'd have to be something like this:


This is from one of the members in Thailand, Nampetch.
sweet looking ride, I'd rock this wing.

The only issue with that is the CF hatches dont have supports for a spoiler, meaning if you put a spoiler on there it will tear the fibers over time.
haha i LOVE that car too! one of the reasons im painting my car orange tongue.gif lol have always wanted one since then

oh really... would it be possible to make custom supports?

Anything is possible with the right amount of $$$, it all depends on how sturdy/lasting you want it.
i see...
well i suppose ill give it a shot when i get it.
if it dosent work i guess ill just be wing free
>>DO NOT BUY FROM ANDYS!!!>>

Andys auto sport sells items that the original manufacture did not reach their expectations, it WILL have sum sort of defect ie wing isn't straight, mounts are not in line, exe. This is why they can sell them for cheaper then the original manufacture.
sorry to hijack the thread guys, but does anyone know where Nampetch got that rear wing from? I need it in my life bowdown.gif
