i aint got da readin ting down so good. pikturs ?

[bimmer8604]

this is what you need.



i heard a guy on here has one that he just painted black, for longevity, but because its just a wing, it adds more down force.

[fcsteve]

Well, OTish, what could you change on a Ryan G splitter to give you downforce?

step 1.

read above links.

And honestly, the splitter wont give you much more downforce just driving around. It is usually just used to help channel the air under the car vs over the car for a pressure differential at high speeds.. There have been no studies on this forum to prove the benefits of a splitter, as they are probably nothing. just purely cosmetic.

honda wings serve a purpose .. you can predict grade levels... how many fingers am i holding up ?

[bimmer8604]

honda wings do serve a purpose, when they are properly used. there, i said it. wings on FWD cars are not necessarily a bad thing.

keep talking yourself into a hole. a deep deep hole that you will never be able to get out of.
