The bigger the wing, the more down force at lower speeds. Eventually your car will glued down even in stop and go traffic! Flip it up side down and wave bye bye to those poor wingless S2000's on the ground! Cheaper then a Cessna, I think.

Likewise, aero (vents, wings, canards, etc) makes cars look gaudy and trashy... but you accept it cause the car you think the car is being utilized/tracked.

When you find out that the trashy girl is a prude and "conventional", you are immediately let down.
Likewise, seeing aero on a car that isn't tracked is, as someone above mentioned, a "boner kill".


Or as one of the guys in the gallery once said: "that's a lot of aero for a car to sit in a parking lot."
ignoring anyone's reputation on this forum, id say thats kindof true and kind of dumb

aero is a tramp stamp of a car that is meant to be driven hard, and not neccesarilly tracked to oblivion. I drive my car very very hard on the backroads of nc and I have a mugen wing(real) and a cr lip. i find the parts weirdly beautiful, but i also get alot of use out of them where i live.

aero is not noticeable at legal speeds, but i use it alot.. the mugen stables the back end out massively cornering above 100 and killing the back roads.

however, im not a fan of hard parkers with 'jdm' aero and wheel offsets/suspension that doesnt fit. my shit is purely set up because i think its awesome, but, i think someone on the forums could destroy on track with it

The big wing is for my NSX and should fit the stock holes.

The smaller wing is from ASM for the s2000 and yes that one I will need to drill new holes which is why I have not decided if I wanted to mount it on my car yet....

If you don't track it, don't bother
