Full Version: Put A Rice Burner Wing On My Car!

Ok so i've been wanting to add a lil sumthang to the back of my car for a while. i was thinking about doing a wing but i knew i didnt want the normal kind that goes way off the back of the engine cage just cause it wouldnt really look right with teh style of car that i have. So instead i thought about doing a SCU style wing, that actually sits kinda infront of the engine just off the back of the of the rear roof cage but because of my radiators i dont see that being possible....

So now i'm thinking about stealing a page outa the Paradigm cars book and doing an indy car/tuner car style wing. I've always been kinda fond of this look, and it always set the paradigm car apart.

Comon John Bishop dont be mad u know what they say, imitation is the most sincere form of flattery wub.gif zippy.gif

anybody with photochop skills help me out!!! threw in a bunch of pics of my car so hopefully there is one that works!

ok so heres the paradigm car

Please dont laugh, this is very rough but it gives a BASIC, STRESS BASIC look. To me it looks like your car is missing something in back, even though it is a gorgeous car!. Real quick Cut, Copy, paste in "Paint" before I head home from work.

It's much easier to do this stuff if both cars are at the same angle...

Personally, I like the look of the car as it is, without the wing. I know this is in the opposite direction, but what about a row of HID's, similar to what the 2nd Paradigm car has? Add's a little bling, and a ton of function.

You know what they say about lipstick and a pig don't you?

Save the money and buy power steering. And maybe more bricks for the front.

I'm not mad at all so don't worry about that. I like the first one Pete did for you, however I think it would look better a little further back. I don't like it on the roof. If you can't seem to get just the right look, you can always just buy Paradigm from me! 25cheers.gif

I always liked the way the car looked without a wing too. Kinda made it look a lil more like a truck or rock jeep kinda, but im ready to do somethang new plus we all know when you slap a spoiler on a car it adds at least ann extra 20 HP!!!! Good thing about this style of wing is that it will require very little if any fabbing. i figure it will go on with a couple support braces that will just clamp around the tubes on the engine cage, and if i get tired of the way it looks it will pop right off and the car will look just like it did before.

Thx for bringing up the lights cause thats another thang i wanna do, so heres the next photochop idea. i wana add lights to my car.
I dont really dig the light rack tho, I'm thinking two big dish lights. i love the way these look on Wild Bills SU





Heres some new pics of my car. Hopefully these are better. I can crop them down if they need to be. But yea, wildbills lights, and John bishops wing on MY car would be awesome haha!!

lip stick and a pig? dude, i dont wannna know about those "farm" dates you are always talking about....

you know what they say about opinions right?

I got money in da bank so ima do it all. maybe even some badass custom headers. U know anyone that does decent work??

If i were you, I would go for it. These are some very basic jpegs but i think it changes the whole look of your carIyou hsould be able to imagine the rest..). Seriously, do you need a 6 HID light rack on your ride? 2 well placed,discrete HID's will do the trick(unless you are sponsored). Again, very basic, I could do more if you needed,, ?

Lights are a good thing...

Yup, that's it right there! And maybe 500 lbs of lights on the front bumper to get the front end to turn.
freakn450
That is fugg'n hilarious! Won't your front shock towers block the lights if you mount them on the side?
socaldmax
Yeah, it will look like a big "Bat Signal" on the face of the dune...

i was thinking it will, prob depends on what kind of beam i get. Like if i get a flood the light would spread out too much and prob hit the shock tower and like socal said i'd get a crazy pattern and prob some major glare off the back of the tower right into my eyes. IDK, i'll have to play around with mounting ideas before i'd buy'em.

but the wing on the other hand looks killer. I'll prob just go with the smaller aluminum one and leave that japanese anime wing alone for Bohica to use on his funco :P
