Carbon fiber oem wing?

Alright, I did a search for this since I figured it would have been answered already but I didn't find what i was looking for. I also did a search on google and didnt find what I wanted. SOOO I'm here asking you guys.

I drive a 97 eclipse RS. Love the looks of it aside from the 3pc wing it comes with. I love the oem turbo wing. I was just wondering if there is a carbon fiber version of the oem turbo wing? I looked and looked but couldnt find one. I tried ebay and all that shit but to no avail. I did however see one an eclipse on cardomain with one. atleast the dood said it was carbon fiber. Anyway, anyone know where I could snag one?

As a side note, I've been hesitant on getting the turbo wing for my car, especially in carbon fiber for fear of being called rice. I get called rice enough having a stock looking RS >.< ... I dont care anymore. I'm doing what I want, If I like it, I'm doing it. So I'm hoping there will be no one trying to call me rice for this. Anyway, thanks ahead of time for your help!

Re: Carbon fiber oem wing?

I've never seen a carbon fiber stock oem turbo wing. Maybe he took one and had it wrapped in carbon fiber, that could be.

If you don't care what other people think, then it won't matter what they call you. It's important that you like your car. It doesn't matter what others think of it.

Re: Carbon fiber oem wing?

ive seen that turbo spoiler that the guy on cardomain has, its a customized wing, you have to get it professionally wrapped in carbon fiber, or be willing to buy the c/f yourself and learn how to wrap it, because im doing the same exact thing on my car, it doesnt matter if people call you a ricer, its usually an indication of jealousy, or at least a hint of envy..haha, do you know his webpage by any chance?

http://www.cardomain.com/ride/568661/7 theres the link to it. If you go to page 7 and read his exterior modifications, thats where he says its carbon fiber.

Thanks for everyone's help. Look like I'll just have to get one painted. My car is black so I figured I'd skip the paint hassle but looks like thats out. Thanks again

Who made those guidelines? The term "ricer" is so damn overused it's not even funny.
