I was thinking of getting a TJ wing for my TL some time in the future and was wondering what people thought?

Also, Where would i be able to get one and how much? Would a self install be easy enough?

Um... Which TJ wing... There are a few.

Self install is only recommended if you have reasonably good spatial awareness, common sense and skill with power tools.

The VR X wing, sorry, should of specified that.

The wing like this one: http://www.spoilernet.com.au/sitephotos/Mitsubishi%20Magna%20VRX%20wing.jpg

Ring Caine at the Mitsi place......08 8382 9566.....he has plenty of vrx ones a limited supply of ralliart ones(white,silver,red)...$125.00

Any places in Queensland? or would he ship them here?

What price on the ralliart ones?

ONE HUNDRED AND TWENTY FIVE DOLLAAARS......!!!!!!!:D :D

Does anyone think it would look good on the TL?

There's a black KL Rada up here with a Ralliart wing and Don't really like it, doesn't really gel with the front.
There is also a white KL like mine with a VRX wing and looks heaps better.

Errrr No..

Lots of members actually de-wing their car for the clean look.

I think a Ralliart wing should stay with the ralliart.

And dont forget the springs for the heavier boot as well.

I was thinking about de-winging it, but wanna at least get some nice rims first, stock 15's are pretty boring. I didn't want the ralli-art one, just the VRX one.

i have had some good comments with my ralliart spoiler on my vrx but each to there own
on topic saw a tl with a vrx spoiler yesterday looked good except for the fact that the brake light wasnt hooked up :nuts:

If i do end up de-winging it, what will that do to the rear suspension? I want to get it lowered but dont know when i will be able to. Rims first lol.

taking the spoiler off and leaving the stock suspension will mean you have less rear downforce, so you might struggle a little for traction. It will also stuff up your rear suspensions general dynamics due to the less weight and different weight balance. Definately goto pedders or something and get a suspension tuneup

wont effect it at all, def go rims first then lower it :D

damn, that **** sounds serious

I was gonna de-wing my XR8... that would of been mayhem

How much would the tune up be? Has anyone had any problems de-winging thier magna?

probably only about $100 much worth it to decrease the tyre wear on the car! My mate had it on his TE his tyres ran out in about 2000 k's due to the decrease in downforce

But the spoiler really only comes into use at higerspeeds, unless your gunna be really fly the spoiler is just for s**ts and giggles. So taking the spoiler off isn't really gunna affect the rear suspension unless you decide you average speed is gunna be around the 180 mark....

Agree'd, besides all the magna spoilers excluding VRX and Ralliart aren't really creating downforce, they are sitting too low to make a difference.

Have a TJ VRX wing on my girlfriends TL, I think it looks ok.

Ahahaha - wait, you're serious right?

*sigh*

Aerodynamics only become an issue at 80km/h, im yet to see a Magna breaking traction in 3rd........furthermore - the chances that these wings do anything more other than stroke your ah, ego, is yet to be proven through wind tunnel testing results.......more often than not, these wings actually hamper performance as they add to the drag of a car, without actually adding any useful downforce.

Now, as there is less rear weight on the back, traction would actually be increased at the front, being you know, a front wheel drive car. However, the weight of the spoiler compared to the weight of the car is rather redundant. Its like saying, make sure you tune your suspension if you have some eggs, milk, and a bottle of coke in the boot......

But anyway - yes, do get a suspension tune up if you ever have shopping in the boot.

Thanks to all you guys who told me i was getting played on this subject. I'm still new to this.
I'm Planning to de-wing now once i can afford some rims.

lol if you go through all of liverpool's posts, i think the only ones that are serious are the ones where he tries to argue how good his cressida is :P

oh, i personally think the TJ wings are alot sharper in design to the TL's smooth flowing body shape. I personally thing a TL without a wing looks hot as.

take your time, plan everthing you wanna do, and do it in an order. no point getting a big spoiler on a stock car - but that is my view...go the rims, then the lowering, then tint - then start messing around with the body - ie grilles, parras, bodykits, wings...etc

haha, read through the post, its ridiculous! I was just having a joke.... i didnt know someone could be so dumb:bowrofl:

Instead of being a total f-wit, you could actually try and help the guy out.

Then again, im sure you knew everything when you started out......

im much better at being a 'totla f-wit' than actually helping

i didnt know everything, but seriously, removing a spoiler and it doing anything to your rear suspension, pretty obvious i would have thought

Well obviously.

If only the forum had an inbuilt sarcasm meter that changed the color of the post according to the amount of sarcasm involved. :(

I agree the T/KL look better without a wing

Don't let others decide your mods for you, your young and easily impressionable, do what you like but take advice of others and make your own descision.

Only just starting out in the 'own-ya-own-car' world myself, it's hard to know what looks nice, what looks hot and what just makes the car look cheap.
I'm guessing we will all make mistakes - just hope we learn from them.

As for the VRX wing on the TL, looking at that Black one posted earlier - it looks good. Suits the car just as well as the TJ.

tl/tw's suit slammed and dewinged look tbh... only way i can bear those models :P

Has anyone tried a tail lip spoiler for the TL's?
I think something like a mercedes or bmw style lip spoiler would look sweet on a TL.
Try getting a rubber or plastic one off ebay and modify it to fit,they are onlt double sided taped on.
Would look the goods cause i wanna find one for my verada!

do 3rd gen wings fit on 2nd gen rears?
I want a wing on mine, because I dont like de-winged tails of 2g's, but want something a bit different and bigger maybe to just a normal 2nd gen one
was gonna get an evo III or something but decided against it, and dont want to copy pual too much

Yes, im a ricer, whatcha gonna do?

any suggestions?

any suggestions?

limo style boomerang? That way you can get TV reception too.

As for TJ vrx wing a TL, no way, do not like it at all. There was a black TL or KL with a ralliart wing on it that looks pretty sweet.

I was totally against wings on TL's but if I had my nuts in a vice and the only thing that would save them was to wing my car it would be a ralliart one that went on.

have thought this for aggeesssss!!!

the TL has great flowing lines and i think a shortened drift style wing would look awesome...like a little kick up off the rear!!

Totally agreed there!
I might try and mod a lip spoiler for my KJ soon and i will post pics when i find out something do place on it but i dont want to drill any holes which is a big hassle!

This is the spoiler is was thinking but one that sits back a little would be better!

something like this in length, maybe not so angled up though.

^^^ do want!

Will see if i can find something soon and i will post pics when executed.

Here is my lip spoiler, I'm sure it will look good if color coded.

whats the go with the lip spoilers, are they easy to come across? multi-fit etc?
i recon one of them would look sweet on the 2nd gen rear

Looks the goods!
Dont mind me asking were you got it?
Totally fine if you dont but i may need to modify one as my boot drops down in the centre.
