Theres a wing on nopi.com that I'm thinking about getting, I was just wondering if it would fit on my Civic, the trunk width on my Civic is about 47" I think, correct me if I'm wrong. But this wing is 54"...I was wondering if 54" was from the furthest tip on the wing to the other tip on the complete other side or if it was from where it bolts onto the trunk on one side to the other side where it bolts on, because where you bolt it onto the trunk isn't as far apart. Also if you guys could tell me what you think of it and if you think it's a good price...thx I have a 1996 Civic EX 4 door (LX to you guys cause i live in canada) thx again.
Heres the direct link to the exact wing i'm looking at: http://www.nopionline.com/nopistore/dsp_pa...erglass%20Wings |

do yourself a favor and skip the wing, instead invest in maybe a oem style wing. Trust us, you'll thank us later.

just buy it and learn from your mistake when people laugh at the stoplights. Its the only way.
But. just for the record, It serves no purpose. |

Ok...But not one person answered my question...whether or not it would fit. But alright i'l take your guys advice and not get it...just asking...whats wrong with it? too big?...the kinda racing i'm doing are drags. (Not really drags I just like to take off after a red light and not stop till 150 kph sometimes :P) Would the stock wing give me a decent amound of down force? thx

you dont go fast enough off lights to even think about down force. forget the idea, you want to eliminate drag in your case.. lower the car get it more centered and air flowing around it.. it will do much more than that ugly wing.

With the right paint and in the right sunlight, I say that wing will compliment your car nicely. I say go for it.

54" wing huh... may get bad news from haters.. But personally I think it's a bit big..
I've always loved the original touring wing though.. I think that'd look sweet on your ride. Or either no wing at all.. But whatever you like man.. It's your ride.. just be happy.. And sorry, I dont know if it will fit your car.. ![]() |
