#60438, "Next Week: Turbowing install, where on trunk lid to mount?"




          

I see a lot of turbo wings around I love them but only NOW after I bought mine do I notice where it's mounted, IMO its too far forward, does it fit further back? look better? Will it fit further back? I know theres an actual mounting point or something and someone posted pics a coupleweeks ago showing EXACTLY where it goes factory but... Can some one post a good big pic of a side profile of a 2g w/ that wing so I can chop it and pull the wing back a bit. Thanks for your opinions guys.

I bought mine from Erebuni and it wouldn't fit 4 inches from the edge...mine sits right about exactly at the edge..

It's supposed to be mounted forward dude. Notice the line where the door meets the window? Keep following it back and see how the line curves upward and is continued by the spoiler. That's why the wing flows perfectly at this angle. Mitsu didn't just throw a big wing on there, they made it so it looked natural.

If you place it too far back it'll break that line and look out of place imo.

BTW, welcome to the turbo wang club! emoji

Like it is now?


I don't really like the turbo wings that much. Kind of goofy looking and when I test drove a GS-T it just got in my way of my view in the mirror.
