Default New Spoiler Design. Help me design it

So I have been kicking around the idea of making a new spoiler for the 3S at a lower price structure. I need to be able to make the sides out of aliuminum, and want to take some aspects of two spoilers I like and try to come up with something that would look good on a 3s.

I like this spoiler on the 360, but the sides are too big, they need to be scaled down.



I also like the Supra style spoiler sides, and think they would look good in aliuminum design also.


Here is a good picture I think we could all play with.




Keep in mind the sides will be skinny when I go to prototype them in aliuminum. I may or may not use the current center section we have.

there is a spoiler that was on the puma gto. the car was black, and the spoiler sorta looked like the supra spoiler. maybe we can start with something like that, and then change it around?

That was an older evo wing.

I think a slightly taller version of the aa wing would look much better. Maybe a couple of inches taller.

does it have to be a "high profile" spoiler, we already have the 99, why make variants of something that already works.

maybe we can make some kind of low profile duckbill lip spoiler. I dont know much about manufacturing, but I would imagine it would be cheap to make, and installation could just be some autobody double sided tape.







not the best pics, but its all i can find at work.

I think ActiveAero is on to something. I'm not sure which one would look best but I have a feeling it would look better than anything resembling the 99 combat wing. Just my opinion.

I think something like the tsx wing would look hot. But I will shut up if you are more looking for opinions on the ideas you posted.

The cheapest route to make those would be in ABS. Being that I would have to make a mold and build them in fiberglass I could build a 3S Specific wing like that for around 290 + S/H if you want to get 20 people to buy them I will build it..
