Hey Matt, remember how you were saying that CF wing... - Subaru Enthusiasts Car Club of the Sierras

sperry · 2004-01-06, 11:33 AM

... would look good on my car?

Well, I think, I just made myself the new recipient of the "riced-out wing" comments. Thank goodness we can still razz you about the bent rim.

(images ripped from SubyDude)

I found a guy in Cupertino that's got a replica STi C/F wing he's selling for pretty cheap. He's boxing it up as I write this so he can ship it today so I'll have it for the Car Corral.

MattR · 2004-01-06, 11:59 AM

ARE YOU KIDDING??? I love that wing, I saw those same pictures on Subydude's site last night, I think it will look very cool, way to go man.

Fedex will have 4 boxes for me wed or thursday *fingers crossed*...MikeSTi will not be happy

Meh, just sell the T2's to Mike after the corral and order up a set of gunmetal SDRs.

Speaking of gunmetal SDRs, there was a WRB '02 WRX parked near the deli I had lunch at that had gunmetal SDRs on it!! But they looked like the older rota gunmetal/anthracite that's a bit lighter than the current almost-black "gunmetallic". They looked very sick.

You got that right...

sperry · 2004-01-06, 04:39 PM

Well, at least this wing generates some downforce, unlike the factory one on there that just causes drag.

MikeSTI · 2004-01-06, 04:40 PM

I likes the wing aahlot...way cool I was going to swap my wing with that one if I got another ticket

.....definatlly sick

The picture's not too bad, at least if you click on it and view the non-thumbnail image. (For some reason the thumbnails are coming out shitty on the new server... prolly a problem with ImageMagik)

Hahahaha!

I bet he gets more ass with his new wing, and thats all that matters!

I like the wing Scott, It will differentiate your car from the 354,651 other blue wrx's in town.

Oh yeah, Mike, I have a set of Bronze TII's on the way!

tysonK · 2004-01-06, 09:06 PM

not installed yet ,,pending more deliveries.

MattR · 2004-01-06, 10:27 PM

OMG! what is with everyone? Can;t we spread out some of the excitement a little. haha, Tyson, what did you get?

AtomicLabMonkey · 2004-01-06, 10:31 PM

Here's the data I got:

"Wing is functional"

So that's gotta be better than my current "wing is a parachute" wing.

Which reminds me, my old wing is sitting on my workbench in the garage. I washed, polished, and waxed her last night (took 8 hours in my tiny-ass garage... I'm BEAT). I figured I better remove the current wing so the trunk under there gets cleaned up good for the new wing, which exposes more of the trunk. Word of warning: w/o the wing, the spring on the trunk is way too strong!

I thought my trunk was going to leap through my rear window!

tysonK · 2004-01-07, 10:20 PM

Well I just got my digital camera in the mail so I can go down the garage and take a picture.

MattR · 2004-01-07, 10:24 PM
