i would worry about getting your car lowered first and some mags!! worry about the wing afterwards, imo the magnas look better without a wing but thats just me, watever tickles ya fancy. i would go for the TJ2 wing. :D

On a TE... is better bare and smooth.
I love the vrx wing, but not on a te/th/tf.

Yeh for sure. Te-Tf should all be de-winged. they look ten times meaner without one.

I like Wings Big..
I would Look up some of the Aftermarket Wings from SSV or Talon..
I had a Talon Touring wing on my Mondeo and I wouldnt Hesitate to get another one..
But my TE has the Factory Spoiler already on it..
Don't put a wing on.
Lower it and see what you think. All a wing will do is:
- Add wind resistance
- Make the car look higher than it actually is
- Disrupt the lines of the car
The pros are:
- Easier to guage the end of the car when reversing
- 5kg of downforce at Mach1.3
Up to you, but personally I'd spend the $500 (educated guess) it will cost to source and paint it on a straight through muffler and K&N panel. It will bring much more enjoyment :)

3rd gens looks better without wings imo. They look PHATTER and LOWER without them! Dump the biatch and whack on some big rims and then see what u think!

Magnas look phat without wings. However the Verada looks better with a nice wing due to the protruding rear bumper IMHO.

A lot here don't like wings, but some do. If the guy wants a wing he's going to get one regardless of what we think - He's asking which one - not if he should do it or not.
lenny,
Out of the photo's you have posted, I like numbers 1/2 (silver) and 3 (red). I think I like those without the centre column bit. ...and I like the Evo & Ralliart type too.
But then I like wings (big wings). :cool:

also.. im really starting to like the wings like on the 380VRX/GT's and the latest mazda3 SP23's.. also seen them on statesmans/caprices etc..
they just add a touch of class yet dont interfere with the free-flowing lines of the boot..
CBF looking for a pic to post, but im sure you know the ones im talking about..
dunno if there are any other there for TE/TF's or if they would look any good.. i just like the look of them on the above mentioned cars:)

could someone add a raliart wing to my car so i can
see if it will look any good

Wing or No Wing Magna's look PHAT ..
I think a Wing is a personal preference and I know my last 3 Cars I have had I have put Spoilers onto and I dont think I could live without one now..

This is the only wing I like on any magna because it makes the bubble boot of the TL/TW go away.
http://us1.webpublications.com.au/static/images/articles/i19/1906_3mg.jpg
I also like the VRX only in these two models because the Colour coded lights and chunky grille make the Smily Face go away and the kit makes it look less like a Duck. :D
TW VRX in Black or Burnt orange = nice looking magna.

You don't need ears either, or a nose. The holes will suffice to breathe through. It's just a cosmetic thing.

You so do! It makes it 50 times faster, cooler and more powerful! It helps you with parking and it scares the bejeebus out of you everytime you look in your mirros for the fist 4 months you drive the car. On a more serious note, i dont like the sie profile of my car with it on but from the rear it makes the thing look mean.

OMG! we breathe through our ears, but that means i just failed my human biol exam, noooooooooooo lol

My first Magna was a TE Advance, with no wing. All I wanted for that car was a wing. Then it was stolen.
I bought a TJ Sports, it has a wing. Now I want it off.

yeah i'd have to agree with a few people in this thread in saying that a wing will ruin(your car's look. Especially with stock rims/ride height, i don't think it will look normal with a wing on it. I'd definetly grab some king springs and dump it (approx.$300), then maybe get your windows tinted with the other $200, if you wanted to spend $500 on cosmetics for your car.
But if you must rice, then i would try to get one of those spoilers that looks like a slight extension of the boot. Like, a small lip. Nice and subtle, will help you reversing(won't block your vision), and will flow with the lines of your Te much , much better. In my opinion.
PS. i have to warn you though, modifying your car will probably be an addictive and expensive hobby ! but , there really isnt any other way is there ? hehe
have fun !
