The Civic gets a new wing (that I've had for 3 years)


I decided to finally install this wing I had in my basement. I ordered it three years ago but wasn't sure about installing it without a splitter in front to balance things out. I was thinking about it and I remembered that my old Civic had an almost identical wing with no front aero and it seemed to be nicely balanced. Anyway, it's worth a try. I also installed some new front pads (the old ones were toast) and the 15x9 inch wheels I recently bought (after grinding the knuckles a bit and moving the wheel weights)... if this gives a bit more front end grip, it may go well with a slight increase in rear downforce. We'll see soon enough I hope. My next chance to hit the track will likely be on a Tuesday evening at ICAR.
