Great picture really like those spoilers. Now I am going to have search until I find out more about them.

Really like the lower stripes seen this on Miatas but not on a Fit

Thanks someone mention that it looked like a "Backyard Special" I checked the Thailand Jazz forum to see if there was any mention of what spoiler it was or how it is installed, none so far.

The exhaust looks interesting seems to be on more then one car wonder if the two pipes on the back of the bumper are just for show with the actual exhaust coming out the side of the bumper?

That one on the right has some pizzaz for sure, love it. I would like the other one more without the oni-camber.

This is probably my favorite GE of all time, was posted earlier.

I have seen a lot of those mirrors on the GE but I don't think here in the USA.



I like the diffuser and exhaust probably could have one done at a muffler shop but the diffuser is a different story.



Now that I see this side of the rear spoiler it looks like it has rods anchoring to the roof as well as the glass on the hatch.

looks like its of the same material as the front lip. u notice the left side of the front lip is higher than the right. custom made probably, but the evenness of the front lip makes me question the quality of the material used.

I was thinking maybe a DIY wing but it would be cool to have a wing that moved not sure if it would be very aerodynamic.

Better add a few pictures.

I don't know why, but I think that looks bad ass. Wonder what all you need to make it work.

Why not?

Check this... AWD EJ2 Build - Honda-Tech




.
.
.
Good news- the rear wing computer is done!!
.
.
G Sensor, speed processing, airbrake- the lot.
.
.
.
The main load is taken through 2 solid u-shaped brackets 1/8" thick. This is bolted to 4 steel telescopic tubes 1/2" diameter by 1/16" thick.
The load is transferred to the boot lid itself, where a large supporting structure triangulates it down to the slam panel and hinges..

Obviously the proof will be in the testing but im quite confident..

Yeah it doesn't look too bad, kinda like an updated Bosozuka (sp?) style, kinda.


I need this bad....

Noblesse v2 rear.
