I know which one he is talking about. Its my wallpaper on my pc. Trust me. You dont want to buy that wing. You get a whole damn bodykit for the price of that wing. Looks amazing. But damn expensive.

Anyway... I like that wing.

GTUDrifter, IMO those all are nasty as a beastiality. I like both the blue FCs, and the yellow one. I like the stock also, but I have a vert, and am biased towards Kevin Landers. I think it is off of a 3000gt.

The yellow on looks a little bit like R Magic, maybe not as big though.

Hell no!! That's ugly IMO!
How about the stock wing... the one with 2 middle pillars... I think that one looks way better than that one!

This is the most aero dynamicly functional wing stock. Lowered the drag coefficient significantly along with the rest of the areo package. Function over form bro. IMO your probably looking for a ricer wing but don't want to admit it.

ok from an aerodynamics point of view, the most effcient wing is the wing which will lower the drag coefficient of the car and create a downforce! this is accomplished by creating a vacume effect! The most efficient wing and as far as i have read the stock s5 wing. All thaught i cannot seem to find the flow charts and drag coeficcient charts, none of the aftermarket one other than the RE wing has any data that proves it is better than a pice of cardboard and I will not believe it till proven!
but if you are looking at making your car "better" looking the go ahead to each his own..
On that note formula one Race cars stick to the road because all of the air foils on the car are desinged to creat a vacume effect on the bottom of the car, this is what every aerodynamical pice should do from a stand point of view if i were to build me a Road Race car it would be the following,
s5 TII body,
Mazdaspeed front spillter with custom slitter pannel,
RE rear diffuser
RE rear spoiler
this would be a descent vacume under the car!

1987rx7guy beat me too the most efficient wing thing;
however I tend to agree with him about the ricer wing, I mean those wings were created to "mimick" functional wings, not reacreate them. thus not having a function infact some of them are only counter productive making more drag thus slowing down your car, making it more heavy, and lowering you gas millage due to the added drag!
