Default Mugen wing on a USDM front DB8 @ NASA PIR 02/03/07

So I always wanted to know what my DB8 would look like with a Mugen 2nd gen wing
I have only seen one other sedan, and it was a JDM front.......

I love how it turned out, but I feel that a lower front splitter is in order to balance it out....

<<<<<< puts on flame suit


here are the pics , any and all comments welcome!













HUGE THANKS to twistedpriorities.com for the action shots!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I didn't like it on my car
for some reason it just doesn't look them same on a sedan
might be the front end balance of it

hope you didn't pay Mugen price...

Looks like crap, it reminds me of the sti/evo wing. Do yourself a favor and go get yourself an oem r wing

I'm a firm believer that the DB7/8 chassis is better off with no wing at all.

I like it very much. looks great. Jsut curious, how is the visibility? My ITR wing on my GSR blocks vehicles behind me. Is that a true Mugen wing or a replica?

yeah it does
but not on the Sedan. The trunk is a wider on the sedan and the stock holes won't match up to the wing.
