I ment the wing in general...but i must admit i forgot about the car being FWD

You never know a ricer might think it is RWD. But then again might is the key word.

anyway, it shouldnt be too hard to create it yourself. draw it out on the hood. Each cowl probably would consist of 3 sides of styrene, two skinny ones for the sides and a large flat peice for the top. A little putty and sanding could smooth them out.

I'm not even sure I'd bother with the sides.

What about just templating the shapes and stacking them up on the hood, then clean up the edges with putty...

It took this long to figure out why I posted . Rear downforce on a FWD with no complimentary downforce in the front is plain dumb. Besides, that sushi table he has on the back of that Civic is run-of-the-mill. It's not wind-tunnel tested for the specific car aerodynamics.

Once again......

Welcome to way off topic. Let's return to the task at hand, shall we? That would be the hood...

[nis.k.a.]

If he also thinks the hood is over the top than do him a favor and build a model with a CF hood or stock hood.

Nah I want something he can take to car shows..a little "mini me"


Lol at comment about girls on internet and driving too... GREAT way to put it. And how do you know I wasn't just a gay guy?? I am a female though... good call.


As for downforce.. Not many cars with wings get downforce from them anyways.. From what I understang 99% of the wings made will need an excess amount of speed to actually apply any downforce to the vehicle..

looks like you could cut up the hood from a revell trans-am, the last bodystyle with ram air. It would need heavy modification but the basic shape would already be there.
