Spoiler idea!

[kris.Is.Awesome]

I saw a listing on eBay that caught my eye a few months ago. I've been looking to stick something (M3 lip most likely) on the decklid, because the back side of the car is so- plain. It's for a spoiler for my car, a Del Sol. they wanted $200 for it, which is fucking outrageous.

Here's the listing:
eBay Motors: 93-97 del sol custom jdm type r rear spoiler wing (item 350073307390 end time Jun-30-08 19:29:27 PDT)

And here's the spoiler:



So I made my first template for my idea today.

I want something that is both functional, and appealing to the eye. Yeah yeah FWD needing downforce yah yah... I will be tracking this car at VIR this year. I plan on riveting it to the trunk itself, and using turnbuckles to hold it steady, and adjust it.

Here's 2 shitty cell phone pictures of my first idea. It's only cardboard, and I'm not even going to say what my 'turnbuckles' actually are.


THIS IS ONLY AN IDEA- 30 minutes and cardboard, of course it's not going to be perfect.







Input, CONSTRUCTIVE criticizm- I'm all ears.

That reminds me of the cardboard front lip. Its one thing to be creative, sometimes you should just not be. Its a neat idea, but in the end, its gonna look "home made" anyway, here are some pics of a local SiR transtop that has the same one:

the cardboard is just a mock up-

The finished idea will be aluminum with steel turnbuckles-

just get the rear spoiler for an EG civic, some minor trimming and it should fit fine.

The lip style wing is a Mugen wing and an actual one goes for about $450.

For looks, I just like the JDM style wing for the del sol. Just a little for stylish but its no shopping cart.

i thought the mugen spoiler was different.

The Mugen doesn't turn up, it just comes straight out, but it is basically the same idea.
