hey, yes i am new here, but i have been lurking in the backround for quite a while. i am 17 and own a 4g (canadian) 90 cx. Ill post pics soon. But for my question. I have been offered a really good deal on an aluminum wing (100$ candian) and i am wondering if i should take it and slap it on the civ (on top of the exsisting small hatch spoiler).... the arms on the aluminum spoiler are not as tall as say the one on the supra in the fast in furious and might actually suit my car... if anyone has a pic of it already done, id appreciate lookin.... and please please tell me what u think i should do. thank you... aka, 90civic4u2nv

I can show you 2 pics if you really want to know how it would look
This VTEC is from a girl here in Holland, and she has the wing on the car at all time.
Not just for the Sprint race here on Circuit Zandvoort in Holland
Hope it helps, but like the others said..........dont do it :eek:

Eh, it doesn't look that bad. But it really doesn't serve much of a purpose. I know that some car like the Mugen/Spoon/J's Racing (I forget which one it was!) Hatch had a Touring Wing on it on top of the stock spoiler. So it's not that bad. But still sort of pointless.

I'll admit to the wing not looking too bad, but really, there is no point for that spoiler except the aesthetic pleasure. Unless you converted your Civic to RWD, then you could take advantage of the additional downforce.

you can do what ever you want..... but no matter what you do, if you put that wing on your car WILL be considered:apuke:RICE

If you could find a way to remove your stock lip and then put the spoiler on, I think that would be OK.
I also think that no spoiler at all (even the stock one) looks hella badass.

hmmm no, no that would still be rice... in fact EVERY aluminum wing on import cars are gay, no matter how you attach it. Now when it comes to any other type of wing.... they may look okay if positioned right. just my $.02

Why put a rear wing spoiler? Do you really need downforce for rear wheels, on a FWD car? It does not have any effect until approx. 150mph. At those speeds lift is created and the rear of the vehicle will begin lifting off the ground. It's a waste of money if you were to ask me, but if you really think it looks good then do what you gotta do. I like the looks of the JDM rear-wing w/ 26" LED 3rd brake light. You could always install the aluminum wing centered over front tires. That means hardcore performance man!

Idon't know what the others think but if the wing can have enough angle dialed into it, pull off the stock wing and bolt the aluminum (aluminium for some of you people) one there. That, in my opinion, would look great! Try it before you bolt it down and see how it would look or if it would work. Have a friend hold it in place. Oh yeah, put some pics on here if you can.

Welcome to the website!
Honestly it will look like ass. Those spoilers looks so cheap and they look like they have just been slapped on. Cleaner is better! SAY NO to APC and gay spoilers! :)
