Just want to know if im the only one that has problems with the wings height....???
sorry this isn't a profound question....with hella insight....but just want to shoot the **** with my fellow RRRR'sss


as a matter of fact....whats the worst thing about your R?????

 

Nope the stock wing blocks the headlights at night for me along with the limo tint

 

My MOOOOOOOOOgen wing is at just the right height where if someone is behind me in traffic, it blocks their headlights from blinding me through the rear view mirror.

Another quality feature brought to you by Mugen, and those who make fake mugen ****....like the wing that I have.

stunna idiots that want to steal it.

 

Worst thing about the R? The attitudes of some of the owners. It's a damn Honda, not a GT2.

Oh heck nawwwwww, I know you did not just say that. Everyone knows that the ITR was the greatest human accomplishment ever.

Yes the wing does bother me sometimes because I cannot see all the vehicles that are behind me, which sucks when there may be vehicles that you should look out for.

 

It does ok on blocking truck headlights at certain angles.

 

Just lower the rear end.

 

I don't like it. I use headlights to identify cop cars and troopers behind me on the road. If i'm speeding I have to crouch down and try to make out Crown Vic and Impala lamps.

Yup! I got nailed 6 yrs ago with my first R coming back from Canadian GP and could not see state trooper coming up from behind until its too late.

my gripe exactly. My passengers are often confused to see me ducking and weaving behind the wheel while on the freeway.

 

Ditto.
The wing seems to only block headlights when that's what I'm trying to see (not when they're blinding me). The rest of the time the wing blocks the tops of cars, so I can't see a cop's light bars...

Best caR i have evaR owned. In not too many other cars can you cruise down the highway at higher rates of speed with your parking lights on and have caRs merge into the slow lan half a mile in advance . Lets see...i have seen kids at parties throw cups and run b/c of my caR, caRs slow down tremendously once they see me coming, but highways are the best b/c you all know no matter if its a cop or a 70 yr old grandpa....if you see a Vic you drive with caution.

&lt;---Who has had some great times in the Vic

bingo

love the way the wing looks, hate how it blocks rear vision. ive heard using a different mirror(one that doesnt hang so low) can resolve this though. fug it.

 

Yes, the wing is right in the way for scoping "the man" behind you. I run the GSR wing most of the time to eliminate the problem.

 

Or you could just get some sparco seats and mount them lower to solve the problem

Not if you don't know any better and get Wedge brackets


I liked the headlight-blocking aspect of the wing. I typically didn't drive in such a way that I worried about law occifers though. Occasional jackassery, but not during the daily drive.

Now if I could just put the Turbo Pig's headrests on a diet

Nothing wrong with those if you dont use sliders
