wingless...
just thought i would go wingless for a couple of days...
note: I am using Iphone camera, so not the best picture quality and I have not washed my car for a while. I am also still trying to decide on either depo or es tails.

NICE! I actually want to go without a spoiler as well but I can't seem to find a good cover up for the holes that's not permanent. Now that I'm settled in a home for good, I'll have more time on the weekends to figure it out.
If you do find a solution, please let us know. I know I started another thread on that subject before.
I also like the red bulbs you put in, I'm thinking about getting colored ones but don't know what would look good on a white car.
I'd say go with ES tails.. ES tails always look good on a red or black RA IMO.

dude, where are you in San Diego??? i'd say keep the wing on becuz it will cover up those holes and it overall doesn't look that bad. unless you have a lot of money and want to repaint the whole trunk with also doing work of covering up the holes professionally.

 thanks guys, I don't know if i want to spend the time/$ to cover the holes so i might just put the stock wing back on.
I drove a lot today including freeway time and I really like wingless.
I have both a stockie and an evo viii wing and ratings go as follows:
1)wingless
2)stock wing
3)evo wing
and to NorCal,
if you are by SDSU I am really close to you. I live over in El Cajon.
I was even going to race my car at RaceLegal on the 23rd but i keep throwing a lean code  ever sense I installed the RRM CAI. So it looks like i wll be spectating

Your going to run lean until you get it tuned, Try resetting the ecu and maybe it will learn its getting more air. But whats up with your License plate bracket?

I have reset the ECU a couple of times, I found out this afternoon that it is a fault with the MAF port on the intake itself. As soon as I removed the MAF i noticed alot of scratches without paint and a pretty rough surface which would cause the O-ring on the sensor not to make a flush contact. Giving false readings to the MAF and throwing a CEL.
I have only had it on there a few days and have had problems from the start.

You still need to keep it waxed though, you cant just let it sit in the sun and expect it to stay looking good. Carbon Fiber does take a bit of maintenance.
