looks hideous and out of place. really don't think touring car spoilers suit the Celica, not suprisingly considering they aren't touring cars.

i'd rather go wingless than have that piece of shit on my car. thumbsdown

I took mine off b/c I just didn't like it anymore. But, if it's the true APR spoiler it won't rust...It's aluminum, aluminum doesn't rust. confused

i guess no one here knows anything about perspectives... lemme give you an example - look at my avatar, do you really thing that the dog's nose is larger than the dog's body wave



Here's another example... do you really think that this rear wheel is that much larger than the front one rofl

Because Front-Engine/Front-Wheel Drive vehicles are lighter in the rear, it is important to add more downforce in the rear to achieve more balance. Rear wings and spoilers can do both of these effects.

If a race car is constantly lifting, it does not have the traction and control it needs to go fast and those are some of the key components to faster lap times. Cars need controllability and traction to retain higher speeds through turns. If a car cannot retain higher speeds through turns, then time ultimately is lost.

Two effects are created from aerodynamic wings, downforce and drag. Downforce gives more traction and stability but creates more drag. More drag will slow down a vehicle at high speeds. Adjustable wings can help balance these duality forces. Instead of having a wing at a fixed amount of downforce/drag, adjustable wings allow for more or less of the two. If you are driving on a high speed track, you would want less drag to allow your vehicle to have the maximum amount of top end speed. Conversely, if you are on a technical track with a lot of turns, traction is more of a concern and more downforce would be needed.

Basically, What a rear wing is supposed to do is keep the rear end down in quick high speed turns (at the expense of a getting little more wind drag). Many people crash when making quick turns at high speeds... they spin out. A wing aids in keeping the rear end down at high speeds.

it looks good in person if you have the right setup on the car...
but it's big and heavy.
and the bolts DO rust that hold it onto the trunk..mine were shot.
