Try not to make the assumption that I don't 'appreciate the car for the fine machine that it is'. Like anyone who replaces their stock wheels; their stock pulley; or their stock air system, I don't happen to like the rear wing, so I'm thinking about changing it.

End of story, except for some of the juvenile comments, I'm probably sorry I bothered to ask.

I thought this was the Crossfire forum and not the Mustang or Subaru forum, sorry for the mistake

 

n-n-n-n-nooooo

 

You must have been busy this weekend. I figured you'd be all over this like a fat kid on a cupcake... Mmmmm, cupcakes! LOL

 

they keep insulting my wings....and I will be all over it...lol....

 

They do come in handy for pressing your cloths when traveling....

Honestly folks, it looks like and was an afterthought. it wasn't on the concept, was it. They had to come up with something to make it look different than the NA.

 

Well mister it wasn't on the concept, what's up with the convertible top then? LOL

 

Since we're talking about the rear wing, words of advice for you all:

I removed my Srt coups rear wing last year & since Daimler had unpainted exposed metal on the wing; (where bolts are attached to hold on the wing & going thru the back hatch), The exposed unpainted metal began to rust! DAIMLER>>>>>EXPOSED unpainted metal??? I scraped it down & treated the unpainted metal surface with clear Por 15 (make sure you also treat the attaching bolts with the por15..the nuts will still go on them with a thin coat or 2 of the por 15), then cleaned the painted area it rests on & applied a HUGE bunch of wax, then re-installed that wing. That car is now done! Don't forget to re-install the o-rings & DO NOT over tighten the 4 nuts that hold the wing on!

NOW Car # 2, the srt rag-top is a different story! 1st I removed the entire plate on which the wing rests! I STRONGLY recommend eveyone removes that plate! There are about 12-14 10MM nuts holding that plat on which the wing is attached to) The junk I found under it was amazing! My car is garaged & not exposed to weather, but still lots of dirt under that plate. Then i removed the wing. Again rust starting to form.UNPAINTED METAL!!! I again treated the area with the clear por 15 after i removed the forming rust with steel wool. Also i treated the attaching bolts. Before I attached the plate & wing, I applied a huge amount of car wax & didn't wipe it off, to the area under the rear plate, and between the wing & that plate. The Rag-top has 6 o-ring, be sure they're clean and they're inplace before you reassemble the wing to the plate. DO NOT overtighten the attaching nuts!!!

I still can't believe a $50,000 car has rust issues, while my 1987 Chrysler lebaron had 250,000 miles without 1 rust issue? Maybe its a Daimler thing!

 

Not a good argument. Natural evolution.

 

that would have to be some tune.

maybe m3pig can start a lottery for his wing. i'd even pay shipping if i won.

 

you're right, fp as usual.

 

FP isn't right....don't even start to encourage him....the wing tells you where the rear of the car is when you are backing up.....besides, it has some shape to it, my wife has a flip out ironing board in the laundry room...and it will open anytime as well....

 

Like both of my wings Doc. But if some one dislikes it enough to spend the money to remove it , then by all means do it. Do what makes you happy.

We need to get Rudy looking at the wing on the sl65 AMG. I like the idea of the wing extending at speed. Since his cars will preform like that super car maybe he ought to have a similar wing.

 

if it doesn't make HP....I'm not spending a dime to change anything....lol

 

Did those 'C' emblems make you go any faster?? The aftermarket grill maybe? No, must have been the wind restrictor

 

that was the 'old' doc.... this is the 'new' doc....

after a season of racing he will go back to being oledoc2u, and making the coupe purty....
