Nobody'll make things for a coupe! You'd think it was a re-badged Curren or something... wait?

I like it, might hold off on the rims.
got one question though what do I do when C/F starts to haze. Many of my friends who have c/f hoods, have become hazy after a few years. Is there any way to eliminate that prob? |

not sure, but perhaps you could get a body shop to shoot a clear coat over it.

Wow, that's a sweet wing for $400! I wish I had a hatch, because coupes have no really good wings readily available for them.

I agree. I wish they made that wing for coupes so badly. Then I could have my vented carbon fiber hood up front with a sweet carbon fiber wing in back, and I wouldn't have to pay for paint.

Coomer, you could get that wing modified to fit the area of your coupe. A good shop should be able to cut out a small piece of it and shorten it for a reasonable price. Your car would look sweet with that on it, matched with a carbon-fiber hood. Plus, it would be the only coupe like it (with the shortened wing).

Yeah, it'll be in the parts database soon. Someone already added it, and I'm going to authorize it in a few minutes. Inferno, isn't the area where the wing touches the hatch/trunk lid a different angle between coupes and hatches? I was looking at Natalie's car when I met her up in Seattle before we went to Hot Import Nights, and it looked like the hatchback's hatch lid is more angled on the end than a coupe's trunk lid. Has anyone ever bought a hatch spoiler and made it fit a coupe or convertible? -------------------- New Toyota project coming soon...

I'm not sure. But, It would definitely be something to look into. Thanks for bringing up the point, though!
