Really? a FWD car?



Any wing on a hyundai will do nothing but create drag. If your worried about the "back end kicking out" then invest your money into suspension mods





@cone

I was gonna say do what makes you happy, but after viz posted the pic of the rd1, please don't do it

I also want to know what your progress has been. I'm looking forward to seeing it mounted on the car, ugly or not.

No progress yet, right now I'm too busy with the house and getting everything ready for summer. Plus I'm still waiting for my new job to start so I have the extra income to get started.



I've decided to lower the wing a few inches just so it's not totally outragous....I've looked at alot of pics of different fwd cars with WRX wings and really how outragous can my cosy wing really be? don't you worry I will post pics as soon as I get the build process going





any ideas of what I can do to the stock body to "customize" it without a kit?
