I think it is made by JSP. Look at www.spoilers4less.com and look under the mach 3 wing. It is supposed to be for the newer style mustang but what i think this guy did is chop it down a bit. Anybody think it is to nip. Want to get it when I get a camaro, so please be honest. I work with some philippino guys and most say it looks bad. Help

Ya, it's not the Mach 3 wing. The mach 3 wing is a copy of the Saleen wing for the Mustangs. It also has flat decks, but the one on the Camaro has a lip that flips up on the upper deck. The side panels are also larger and a different shape.

I talked to the kid about the wing, he said it came from some company up in los angles, cant remeber for the life of me what the name was though. A better description of the wing then the mach 3 wing is the optional wing for the vipers, its identical to that...Didnt even think of that Jimbo.....but it kinda makes sense now....

Just open any ***** magazine or even a mustang magazine and I'll bet you find 50 different companies selling a 99% identical design.

Anyways guys, i still like that wing. It doesn't matter what everybody who has nothing better to do than rag on everybody else who has something different. I just can't stand people who say how bad other peoples their ideas are when it is very unique. I like it and think it is very unique. So if anybody knows who makes it or where to buy it. Please tell me. Thx

Driving around with a giant cardboard ***** on your roof would be unique too, but I'll bet you wouldn't feel as cool as with your park-bench-turned-spoiler on the trunk.

Time for me to rant some more.

Every time people rag on spoilers, the spoiler-lovers get all defensive and start screaming that they want to be unique. Let me tell you something. Putting all that lame crap on your car doesn't make you unique. It makes you look just like every other 16 year old pizza boy that drives a car with a giant sheet metal spoiler attached to his trunk. The majority of the thirdgens I see are clapped out sh!tboxes that have a pile of ridiculous ******* or ***** bolt-ons attached all over the car. You know what's REALLY unique these days? A clean, unmolested thirdgen. Once in a while I see one of those, and it makes my head spin around to get a better look. It restores my faith in humanity for a brief second when I see a clean, original looking thirdgen in the sea of unbelievable crap I see the rest of the time.

That thing looks horrible in my opinion. Before I get into detail on how fugly it actually is has it been outlawed to make fun of those things on this message board? I remember a whole bunch of people wineing "wahhh stop making fun of me cause I have a gay spoiler" its almost like these gay rights people that are always complaining about being picked on cause they are "different". I am almost willing to bet 90% of the people on this board hate those things anyways..

No need to apologize. You're as entitled to your opinion as anybody else. Just be prepared to hear our side of the arguement as well.

I actually made that name since everybody was bashing on my car saying that the wing was made for an airplane, not for a car. But thanks for pointing that out to me.....

A Ferrari is an Import......Is it ok if i put that wing on a F50??

Do some good bashing on cars, such as the analogy about the cardboard ***** and the sheetmetal wing.....You get alot more credit for that instead of comming out and saying

that car is fugly

Anyone can say that...but it takes some thinking to say something clever and i have respect for that.......

Sorry if I'm going on and on, but if you are gonna bash someone else's car, you should back it up with why you think it's bad....Just my .02

hheheeheh....i would pay some one to get rid of that car....wings belong on airplanes...not cars....i dont care if its a honda civic, 3rd gen or a fricken ferrari....

You know what's REALLY unique these days? A clean, unmolested thirdgen. Once in a while I see one of those, and it makes my head spin around to get a better look.




IS YOUR HEAD SPINNIN YET???????hehe

FYI: my car has 125K miles...and it looks like it just rolled out of the factory in CA...all original too.....

BIG spoilers = beggin for attention...

I dont know why everyone is bashing everyone in here..
So the guy has a wing on his car, biggggggggg deal... its his car. leave the guy alone! If the guy likes to put TYpe- Peice of **** on his car, I wouldent care. Sure it would look stupid or pointless or whatever.. its none of my business, its his money, his car, his decision. Now there is no way I would throw a wing like that on my car, but whatever, if he wants to go ahead. Do whatever you want to your car bud.. I like your rims and the car looks great, the wing isnt my taste really but its different.
Anyways
cya

actually this just hit me, if that wings supports were much lower and the wing it self was low, I think it would look wicked.

I am the second to say that Flynlow92RS has a Nice set of wheels, but the wing does have to go. There is nothing wrong with a little bit of uniquity (is that even a word)

That car is very sharp but I would make just a couple of changes like 18" wheels and a 91-92 spoiler. That would be the bad

I don't like the wing, I agree with Jim85IROC on this one. I rarely see a mint thirdgen on the roads or around town and when I do, its those that turn my head. If I saw that wing, my head would turn, only because I wanted to make sure I was seeing that someone would actually put that on a thirdgen.

Flyinlow- I may not like your car, but you definitely take the harsh words from everyone very well and thats hard to do. Keep up the sense of humor about it all
