Ricer wing or not bad? - The Ford Focus Forum

I can't decide if I think this wing is ricer or not. I don't want it for my car, I am just curious to see what the reaction is to it. If it were taller I would call it ricer for sure, but on a well done focus it might look nice...maybe. What's the verdict?

Doesn't look like it fits the body at all....

**Great One** · 11-04-2009, 11:10 PM

ehh, it's not the worst that I've ever seen

**Racewar101** · 11-05-2009, 10:30 AM

THats the one i plan on buying lol i think it looks great or dose anyone else no a better one if yes send me link Thx

**o2_designs** · 11-05-2009, 10:44 AM

Looks like a Fusion spoiler...

**LornesBored** · 11-06-2009, 12:37 AM

doesnt look bad.

**stilix** · 11-06-2009, 01:10 AM

i like it

**bustonit** · 11-06-2009, 01:22 AM

I'm not down with the large ends. Looks heavy, out of proportion....and look like flaps extending outward over the bodyside.

**bustonit** · 11-06-2009, 01:33 AM

This one looks good.

A different view.

**tysmagic** · 11-06-2009, 12:15 PM

That one kinda reminds me of a fox body hatch wing (LX if you want to get specific). I think i've seen the wing I posted on a focus around Knoxville, I know it turned my head. It's the edges that flap over that get me, maybe if they were a little less it would look better. I'd like to see it once it's on RaceWar101

**deltafocus** · 11-06-2009, 06:44 PM

I vote not bad........ for the MK1 ... ok for MK1.2 ... a little weird for MK1.3

I have a 2002, I think it would look good

but I'm not feeling it on the 2009

but in either case, not rice at all

**deltafocus** · 11-06-2009, 06:48 PM

ugh, I take it back... just looked and saw the pick on the white car... I vote no on MK1.2. It could be the color mismatch, but I'm not feeling it; actually looks better on the newer car

**tysmagic** · 11-06-2009, 07:08 PM

I agree there. Def a no on the previous sedan body.

**Lancer211** · 11-06-2009, 07:51 PM

It'd be ricer if not painted body color.

**MrBirdman330** · 11-06-2009, 09:36 PM

Not bad, a little on the large side but then again it looks like a standard sedan spoiler just raised above the roof a bit more.

i'm not a fan, doesnt flow with the lines of the car
