just do yourself a favor and retilt the wing to avoid creating down-force on the rear-end, without also adding a front spoiler to pull/push the front down, too.

I would like to congratulate you on jumping into the import tuner/fast and furious movement! You made a wise choice when you decided to turn your low horsepower 4cyl V-tech....I mean Z-tec into a type-R JDM Drift monster! I love the steelies. Those should take a good 4 seconds off of you quarter mile time(It did for my friends civic). The wing and muffler were a great choice. The laws of physics say that a louder fart can greatly increase your low end torque. Backwards spoilers also create reverse downforce, and if done just right can make your car fly higher than mary poppins! Get some type-R stickers and a fake NOS tank and you'll be set. Don't forget the japanese stickers you can't read...People get intimidated by japanese words. It doesn't matter what they say as long as it's in japanese.
JUST KIDDING!! Don't take it personally. I'm just messing with you. To each his own!

That's some funny shiznit!
PS, maybe just the endplates are mounted on the wrong sides, making the wing look like it's backwards? Because if you look at the mounting points, the tilt adjustment is correct.

Bwahahahahaha! Not only is this a Contour, it's a Zetec Contour, he doesn't really need to bother with "aero balance."

In retrospect, it was all downhill from here. RIP, CEG.

Now, if you wanna put a wing on your zetec for looks, ok, whatever (mine has no wing...) but you need a carbon fiber one painted the color of the car, not an aluminum push bar (originally designed for use when your honda breaks down, but now in wideranged use)...
