ex coupe back end

07_FG1 · 09-26-2009, 02:31 PM

I want to do something to spice up the back end of my car, such as a better wing or something.
I was just wondering if anyone knows of anything I could do besides go wingless (costs a ton to a. buy a new trunk lid, or b. have the holes from the wing welded shut and repainted)

and I am not much of a fan of the double spoiler civics (Si wing on top of r18).

Does anyone know of anything I could do?

possible pics?

paint the bottom valence black? (i'll post a pic of mine when i get home or just search my posts)

I skimmed your posts and the only thing i noticed was the back H emblem painted black.
By the lower valence do you mean the part on the bottom of the bumper by the exhaust that is outlined/indented in a trapezoid-like shape?

(not my car, just for reference to what I am talking about)

oh wow that actually looks pretty nice. maybe even the rectangle around the license plate blacked out would look good with it.

Okay for the longest time I haven't been able to figure out why I always see Hondas with stuffed animals hanging from the back towhook. Why? haha

the stuffed animals are racing charms or something.... my friend has one on his 240 and he told me that its some kind of drift charm. apparently its some japanese thing like the charm bracelets for luck or somethin.... anyone correct me if i'm wrong, this is all just what i've heard

okay so i have come to the conclusion that I want to remove my stock rear wing on the trunk.
Problem - I hear that the r18 wing is held on by an whole lot of unneeded hardware, which will be 1) hard to cover up with plugs and/or 2) be hard to weld/repaint

Does anyone have a picture of an r18 with the lip removed with Plugs in its place?

curious as to how this would look, I searched and could only find wingless si's
