The RE-Amemiya wing is SEX!

The big aluminum parkbench style is NOT easy to find for this car. The generic Pep Boys wings will not mount on the FC, because there is so little space behind the hatch.

I can't tell you WHERE to find what you're looking for, but here is my advice: You need one that says it is specifically made for an FC3S. If it is not, it almost certainly will not mount properly.

Those wings are outrageously huge. IMHO, I think you should look into fins rather than wings (I like the GTU one).

heh..Cheapy wings..well I do Know about Cheap.I also know Function..But those things Aside.I would rather have a Car that has a "wing' that looks like it is Part of the Car,and Not Part of Central Park..any Bigger and you could fit Six senior citizens on the Back of your car..Come back and they would be Feeding Pigeons!...but to each His Own..I would really like to see someone With One of those "Aerodynamic Park Benches" on their Daily Driver.Then Ask them If you can put something into the back Hatch.It would be Quite the feat to actually get something From Back there!.

I was unaware that 20 pounds of metal and plastic made your car faster.....

The RE-Amemiya wing is the only one in this thread I've liked. Universal aluminum park bench spoilers just ruin what could be a nice car. To each his own though..

I have to agree the RE-Amemiya wing is prolly the only wing I would even consider. I don't like wings on an FC really but the RE-Amemiya wing does look pretty hot.

still say the stock s5 wing is the best aestitically. its enough to just be noticed as a nice little accent without DRAWING attention to it. it flows well with the rest of the car rather than jumping off of it.
