Default Officially riced out my BMW

Haha, I'm only joking. I just bought a wing for my car though, I wanted something to make the back end not look so incomplete. I also like the fact that it was only ~$100 and has an adjustable Gurney flap. Yes, I know my car is filthy and yes, I am getting the wing painted. This was for test fitting purposes only:

closer to god awful...i hate wings for the most part. you should have gotten a smaller wing or one with a lower stance would have looked better. but its hard to tell because it stands out so much without it being painted. im sure it will look decent once that happens
i heart your wheels though!

Honestly, I have hated wings forever too. But this was a good price and from some pics I've seen on other cars, it looked soo nice. Here it is on some other cars.

Personally, I think it looks good. It will look better painted.


Haha, I'm not trying to kid anyone, this is purely for looks. It makes more drag than downforce, by FAR. But meh.

It must be a BMW owner thing because I also think it looks ugly.

I like it, I think it gives some of the old school BMW style to it.
