I&#8217;ve been contemplating getting a wing or lip spoiler for my FD for sometime now. The stock lines of the FD are already beautiful but I wanted the rear end to appear wider and more aggressive. I pulled the trigger on a carbon wing by <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bakemono-imports.com\/\">Bakemono<\/a> and I love the way it came out! Some people told me it makes my car look like Lightning McQueen&#8217;s car from <a href=\"http:\/\/disney.go.com\/cars\/\">Cars<\/a> and some people say it ruined the lines of the car. Most people really like as do I. Installation was pretty straight forward (it&#8217;ll be easier if you have an OEM or 99 spec wing on it already) but make a quick template out of blue tape was easy. installed mine in the dark halfway into the street from my friend&#8217;s driveway.<\/p>\n<p>They&#8217;re offered in FRP also but I opted for the carbon but will be painting the top side of if to match the car later.<\/p>\n<p>Here are the pics<\/p>\n\r\n\t\t<style type='text\/css'>\r\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 {\r\n\t\t\t\tmargin: auto;\r\n\t\t\t}\r\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 .gallery-item {\r\n\t\t\t\tfloat: left;\r\n\t\t\t\tmargin-top: 10px;\r\n\t\t\t\ttext-align: center;\r\n\t\t\t\twidth: 33%;\r\n\t\t\t}\r\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 img {\r\n\t\t\t\tborder: 2px solid #cfcfcf;\r\n\t\t\t}\r\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 .gallery-caption {\r\n\t\t\t\tmargin-left: 0;\r\n\t\t\t}\r\n\t\t<\/style>\r\n\t\t<!-- see gallery_shortcode() in wp-includes\/media.php -->\n\t\t<div id='gallery-1' class='gallery galleryid-9298 gallery-columns-3 gallery-size-thumbnail gallery1'><script type=\"text\/javascript\">\r\n\/\/ <![CDATA[\r\n\tjQuery(document).ready(function () {\r\n\t\tjQuery(\".gallery1 a\").attr(\"rel\",\"gallery1\");\t\r\n\t\tjQuery('a[rel=\"gallery1\"]').colorbox({maxWidth:\"95%\", maxHeight:\"95%\",title: function(){ return jQuery(this).children().attr(\"alt\");
