Back window visor or wing or nothing on 2001 blue integra
Alright so I just got my integra maybe a week ago, just have put on coilovers, Rota rims, cold air intake and other little things inside and out that you cant really tell, and yes I have changed some seals and checked out it out mechanically before I started to make her nice cosmetically and anyways so I've gotten some suggestions On put a nice type R wing on it and others say to out a back window visor, I like both ideas but wanted to see what people have to say on here about this, my thing is I just want the car to look clean, it literally has almost no scratches no rust at all, no accidents, I'm the 3rd owner and only has110,000 miles and it was bone stock when I got it,
Just want her to look clean, so I need some help on making a desicion! Thanks everyone
I'll post some pictures of the car
Let me know what you guys think

Always loved the SSB integra. Please don't put that hideous window visors. A paint matched ITR wing would complete the "clean" look imo. can't go wrong with the ITR wing.
Re: Back window visor or wing or nothing on 2001 blue integra
GSR wing is my favorite. i would remove what looks like a tow hook strap and also strip the red paint off the calipers. Painted calipers is tacky unless it came like that from the factory.

Yeah it came worth the calipers red and the tow strap when I bought it, they were the only things done to it when I got it, I'm going to look for some nice wings and see what I like thank you

Yeah I'm going to look for a nice wing and get it painted the color of my car, and idk I rather not change the front ( even though I know it looks great) because idk I love how the whole are is like original you know, the paint is nothing faded some very light scratches but you can bearly tell, but thanks for the input I though of going nothing but after reading your post, I think you absolutely right

True that I'm going to look for some wings soon and see what I like, now stupid question, I kind of like wings with brake lights on them I think it looks nice, what's your opinion on that? Or no break light?...
Re: Back window visor or wing or nothing on 2001 blue integra
I liked my old teggy wingless with a rear window visor, but that was on a forest green 94. I don't think your color would go good with a visor so I say none.
Re: Back window visor or wing or nothing on 2001 blue integra
It really depends on if you want the looks of a wing, or better gas mileage. Most of the wings aren't aerodynamic or even provide down forces, just drag.

You can use a third brake light in the hatch. Look it up its a direct oem bolt on.
Re: Back window visor or wing or nothing on 2001 blue integra
The only wingless look i ever liked was from my CSL VIS CF hatch i had on my Integra a few years back but there expensive and imo only look good on a White Integra.

Alright well thanks for all the help, I going to sit on the ideas for a bit and not rush into anything and see if I wanna go wingless or with a wing, and a back window visor is not an option anyone idk I feel like it may look funny, just want a nice clean car, ill see what happens thank you for the up though

Omg I loveeee that picture, looks great! Very clean, tbh it's hard to find a nice teggy that isn't either rusting or has had one or a lot of fender benders, love the picture wow, and glad you kept the normal antenna too, everyone changes it but I love it haha,

It's definitely hard these days to find a nice clean one. Most are riced out or as you said is poor condition.
Overall I'd say it's up to you. I personally like everything that I put on my car to have a function other than looking pretty. If you go by that sort of standard you can save yourself a good amount of money too
IIRC since these are FWD cars you want all the down force to be on your front wheels if possible to allow for maximum traction/grip. So a wing won't do anything unless you have a magical RWD integra
Re: Back window visor or wing or nothing on 2001 blue integra
I personally like my Type R wing on my Integra. Previous owner put it on and I never thought to take it off. Don't know if it would be worth it to buy one and get it color matched to the car. If you are looking to upgrade performance than put your money elsewhere, but if you just want it to look clean and you have the spare cash then I'm sure it will look great.
Re: Back window visor or wing or nothing on 2001 blue integra
Very nice car! I'd consider the wing out instead of visor but I second 1990IntegraLS and COM2 that wings are mainly for looks. For performance, investment would be better spent elsewhere. I thought about putting a wing on my Integra as well but eventually decided against it for the same reason.
Re: Back window visor or wing or nothing on 2001 blue integra
See I really thought about everything you guys said and usually I would thing performance wise because I always have in my past cars 07 si and a GTS lancer 08 but well with those are it was worth it I even turned the civic to 15 psi but well with this teggy it's not really worth it too much because the most it could have rn is 140 and well I just want a nice clean teggy, tasteful mods such as the cold air intake I put on, but nothing big, and well I ended up getting a beaten up type R wing, sanded it down to the bone, got the paint made since I couldn't find it online and well I have to say I am not disappointed with the results...
Before ( to be hones didn't look that bad but wanted something different)
After pictures
None are edited
I'm pretty happy with the results, just quick pictures I actually like it more in person than pics haha
Re: Back window visor or wing or nothing on 2001 blue integra
it's common but I like it no matter what it's got a simple 90's feel in a sense like the supras wing but more flat and lower. Personally I chose a huge Voltex wing for mine but it's retardedly expensive, and long wait.
