You could have gone with a lower seating wing since the tC is a fast back, and the clean air is not so up high. But at least it's a lot more functional than the pedestal spoiler and lip spoiler, which does absolutely nothing. The lip might even create more lift, since it will force air to pass around it a bit faster. Match that with an APR front air splitter and maybe some canards, and at least you'll be on your way towards reducing lift, and giving your car some highway stability.

And BTW as far as I'm concerned if it does not improve performance, if it hinders performance, if it's just there only because it looks good, and if it's just there only because it sounds good, then it's R-I-C-E.

OMG you got ripped on ebay for $100 how sad! I hate when ebay ripps kiddies off like that... My god man. Different is one thing. Freakin retareded is another. Sorry but that is just.... the most uncool thing I have ever seen done to a tc.

See here is the deal... When 99.9% of the planet thinks that looks retarded, them all your asking for is people to laugh at you, key your car or take a bat to it!

Sorry man, but I hope you drive more than 80mph, should take that nasty thing right off the back of the car.

Better yet, someone could always tie a rope to one of those wing struts from an aircraft to a tree so when ya go to leave it yanks it off! Heck I would rather see a damaged hatch than that thing on it.

oh well scion community is like the neon community. about 4 people have good taste. flames, chrome rims, 19-20" Konigs, additional scion emblem/stickers. so dont go thrashing this kid and his ridiculous wing until you go buy some goo-gone and take the "bad boys drive bad toys" sticker off your bumper douche pickles.



on a lighter note, *insert cliche line about a plane flying or how this wing only works on a porsche*

oh and i love you all

I forget who said it, but this quote fits in numerous situations:

That's not a spoiler. That tC is being harassed by a small airplane.

Its not my cup of tea, but its his car so let him do what he wants. A month or 2 ago, someone posted pics of a tC that had a huge aluminum spoiler and had put tape over the holes where they probably took off the pedestal spoiler. It also had a 01 number on the sides of it, chopped up the bottom grille to put some hotdog shaped fogs in, and had a fart can that was tilted to the right so much that it was touching the rear ground fx. Comparing his to the one I'm talking about is a grain of sand. You guys would have said worse things about the one I'm talking about then his. BTW what part of Cincy ya in?

For punishment must put this on his car:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Bmw-M...76665254QQrdZ1
I looked at that link and thought those rims would look nice on the car, then I noticed this out of place looking thing on the fender and read further,

No Screwing needed
It was all over when I read that. Don't do it man, you already got the wing, if you put this magnetic thingy on you'll probably never get any girls since there is
No Screwing needed
Is that little girl stealing the magnet?

WoW, I think i just puked in my mouth. Being different is cool and all but, what you have done to this car is blasphemy and I hope you come to your senses and change it. Granted its your tC but, what did it ever do to you to deserve this? Do you need a pilot's liscense to operate that thing?

you're so full of it man.

this is a public forum. if he was really only concerned with pleasing himself, then he wouldn't be posting a thread about it. by posting a thread and/or pics about something you just bought/installed...obviously you are either directly or indirectly asking for opinions. and he's getting just that...our opinions.

that wing is a pos.
