Default CR Wing?

Alright guys, I know this has been discussed on the forums already. I Just wanted the opinions of the locals, so I am in process of changing the look of my AP1 SSM. I'm heavily debating on a CR wing or keeping my AP1 wing. Keep in mind I will have a Ap2 front end with an OEM lip, along side with a Black Mugen hardtop. What shall I do?!?

I myself am leaning towards the CR look. Now to your thoughts!

BTW, if anyone has a CR wing for sale, let me know!

I'm sure it's functional but I absolutely hate the look of it.

You could probably get the same result with a couple of canards.

Canards arent going to help rear downforce....

A CR wing imo can look good, with supporting mods.

You should go for it so I can see what my car would look like with a CR wing, without me having to put one on my car to find out... just my (selfless) two cents

Just be warned when attaching wings to a stock trunk lid, you may warp and damage your trunk!

The CR trunk has extra reinforcements and is beefed up to support the wing and downforce.

Mine hasnt buckled or flexed at all without any additional reinforcement, not saying its not a good idea, they just didnt have them in stock at the dealership when i installed this and have since forgotten about it.

^ I imagine you should be fine for awhile. I have seen trunks from the socal guys who track every weekend, and they are slowly starting to see some warpage, but only after a lot of miles.

Not even sure if the CR wing produces enough df, but if Honda went through the trouble of reinforcing it, then that is enough for me.
