Anyone know a specific time frame this spoiler will be out or any details as to if it uses stock holes etc. I think this spoiler looks great, not real big on the two extensions on the back but its groing on me. Anyone have any info on these?

 

Holy ducktail Batman!

 

RICE RICE BABY...

 

Perhaps without the jewelry on, it might look pretty clean. But I'd have to see it first

 

nascar

 

thats what the fins are meant for, they are meant to be trimable like the nascar wings to tune the downforce

 

Call me crazy but I am thinking that without the fins on it, it may be the best looking one on the market. Just look at it and imagine it without fins, I think it compliments lines a lot better than some other options out there.

 

I would consider this without the little ducktails, LOL

 

So, is it rice because it's actually functional? The diffusers may not be pretty, but they are actually making the wing functional. So I'm not getting the "rice" comment. Maybe you'd like to look at a few definitions of the term rice, and get back to us.

Well how about "ugly" then? I agree that it would look "nicer" without the "functionality."

As to functionality: does anyone know how functional any spoiler is on a car that is going 60 to 90 mph? That's about as fast as I'd go.

Or stated another way, how fast do you have to go to get any appreciable down force on the car?

Thanks

 

Agent 47 sells several items targeted at serious racers. That would include the quarter windows, the spoiler, the brake cooling ducts, and the headlight deletes. These are not for your every day cars. While you and I will not be attaining the speeds to make use of that, there are some that are, and that's who the parts are targeted to. Of course, you could buy the spoiler and not install the diffusers.

Anything else?

 

i agree with darkfire, just take off the diffusers and paint the bolts when you paint the spoiler and people will not notice, or you could leave them silver and get the motorsports look

It's RICE IMO because the functionality won't appear at the speeds the car will most likely be driven. What downforce will be exerted at 75-80mph?

I'm standing by my RICE assertion, and adding FUGLY as well.

 

I think the "rice" thing gets used too much on these forums...

First of all this is a spoiler...most "ricers" use large wings...

And like DarkFire said Agent 47 designs their products towards serious racers who go over 75-80mph.

 

Looks like a slightly different take on the GT500 spoiler... just picked mine up from the stealership today...installing tomorrow!
Agree, but I was sure glad for the lip spoiler on my '97 Viper GTS, when my wife and I took it 165 (rock solid changing lanes....this was in '99 before we had kids)....the RT/10 Vipers get squirrely at ~140 since they don't have it...

Agree with that too...a ricer would definetly have a "wing"...now that's for sure not a functional part of out GT's///that's why I'm putting the GT500 spoiler on tomorrow...and FYI, I take mine to 125 EVERY DAY on a long (3/4 to 1 mile) on ramp...

 

I think that thing would cover 1/2 of the 3rd brake light. That's why they removed it?

 

I wouldn't call that spoiler rice,...contemporary.As retro as the S-197 is, its nice to see some new school applications avalible for our newer cars.

 

If anyone here saw that spoiler on a Civic we would all be calling it "rice".

So, what makes it not rice on a Mustang?

 

Maybe you would call it rice. It's not a huge Gran Turismo wing that looks like it belongs on an airplane, it's a functional ducktail. If you take off the diffusers, the only difference between it and the GT500 wing are a few angles are a bit different, and it's probably about an inch longer. Otherwise, it's the same spoiler.

The term "rice" does seem to get thrown around way too much.

This is rice

The guy is so worried about looking like other cars, he forgot he would need to be able to steer his ride.

This is rice


This is NOT rice

 

obviously this guy went to far, but according to some of you guy that argue for fake badging. "it's his money he can buy what he wants." just because they sell it does'nt mean you should buy it.
