What mid wing is that ?

Painted And Mounted - guilty - 06-01-2007

Looks like the Wings West or replica of that design.

How did you end up getting it mounted? Did they just use the tape for the whole thing? The big piece of mine was bolted on and the sides had some extra glue on them since the tape started letting go a little bit.

Some people just never learn. :lol:

Personally i don't mind the wing when they're body coloured but painted black as it is, just doesn't work for me. But if you're happy with it thats all that matters.

if you went with black it should have been flat black like your stock body kit from Ford, and door handels, and body moldings, and black plate light strip. that way it would not stick out so much as it dose.

as for tails don't tint them too dark or you'll be getting a ticket or worse yet, rear ended at night because the car behind you couldn't tell if you were braking or not.

and for pure looks & nice sounds, loose the fat can, you own a Focus, not a Civic.

I like it. As for the lights im not gonna tint them. Gonna get Black Aftermarket ones.

Fartcan goes when I have the extra cash for a proper exhaust system.

Painted And Mounted - ANTHONYD - 06-01-2007

unibrow.

Hmmm.. Have it painted Mason..seriously. It looks like one of those hacked up civics we all make fun of.
Just being honest bro.

If you dig it...then by all means!

Painted And Mounted - Mason - 06-01-2007

The problem was as the guy explained before it was painted is because the finish on the plastic is different the color will look different.
Its there now. Im not changing it lol.
Gonna get those black tailights on to even it out and im gonna shine up the stock body kit on there.

Painted And Mounted - Flofocus - 06-01-2007

Nice wing, wrong color.

I just had my rear bumper replaced and hatch re-sprayed and everything looks the same to me. All the colours are in line and nothing looks off. BTW, I drive a yellow ZX3.

Painted And Mounted - ANTHONYD - 06-01-2007

You painter is a lazy f*** who just sold you what he had in the shop.

I've never heard of plastic parts looking different after being painted :(

I think he played you bro.

Painted And Mounted - hardk0re - 06-02-2007

Plastic parts look "off" due to them adding flex agent. It would still match. Sort of a mute point now tho....its already painted and mounted....

I like those rear wings, the original WW one was best in my opinion.

Painted And Mounted - oldeguy - 06-02-2007

Looks alright. If it was my car, and again, it isn't, I would have painted it the same colour as the body. Maybe a horizontal stripe of some sort would help it out. Your missing something though, your Focuscanada decals

Painted And Mounted - Mason - 06-02-2007

Its not a big deal. At some point im gonna get a kit and the whole car will likly get painted. :P
In the big picture its not that big a set back.
In the time being I still like it.

Tail lights come next week :lol:
