: obstructed view (wing)?
hayasa 02-29-2008, 02:43 PM Just wondering if the standard wing or the "extended" one obstructs the rear view, particularly the one on the MR. One of the cool thing about the old Supras was that the big wing (similar in shape to the EvoX) outlined the rear window view.
PDXEvo 02-29-2008, 05:12 PM I know the big wing that comes on the SSS package is more of hindrance to my rear view experience then the VIII was.
toytec 03-01-2008, 02:45 AM The big wing definitely get in the way of spotting the man!
Kooldino 03-01-2008, 07:06 AM Can you post a pic of your rear view from the driver's seat?
BoyBeaterTsi 03-01-2008, 04:43 PM I got the lower wing .. The big wing on the SRT used to annoy me .. like toytec said .. you can't see copper lights! The lower wing doesn't get in the way as much.
on2it 03-02-2008, 11:09 PM Why would you want to look behind to see everyone you've passed? ;)
yes mine does obstruct the view slightly.
TRUSTcompany9000 03-02-2008, 11:25 PM The wing goes right through the middle of the rear windshield. I actually found myself at one point thinking that I was doing a good job spotting an unmarked police officer behind me... then when he moved over I realised that the wing was completely hiding the light bar lol.
EvoX-LI 03-03-2008, 01:26 AM Yup. Its in the way. I have to sometimes either stretch my neck or hunch to keep a look out before I have a little fun.

kwise22gsr 03-03-2008, 01:50 AM yea, agreed. the SSS wing obstructs my view somewhat, forcing me to crouch in the seat or sit up higher to see behind. Its a risk I'm willing to take though!!!

Juz10 xD 03-03-2008, 05:02 AM anyone know if the sss spoiler and the stock spoiler are direct swaps or are the holes drilled in different places?

DSMissed 03-09-2008, 06:43 PM I would imagine they are....
ddawg1130 03-10-2008, 09:11 PM i like the wing... blocks peoples headlights from blinding me at night. For that purpose i find it to be in the perfect spot.
evox_ 03-11-2008, 03:06 AM The big wing definitely get in the way of spotting the man!
hahahaha that is true!
Tunerhead 03-26-2008, 10:32 PM It does obstruct view but nothing I can't adjust getting use to.
ddawg1130 03-26-2008, 11:43 PM drove a pick-up for work with a big grate thingy with tools and shit back when i did construction for summer jobs. learned to live by the side mirrors.
lol... jk, the wing is nothing. Maybe it will be harder to spot a car way back or to see the roof of a cop car... but as i said... side mirrors ftw.
