Did I mount the mid wing correctly?

I got the mid wing with the car and it was never mounted. I placed it where it belongs when i first got the car about a year ago and it seemed bent in the middle just a bit so i put it on a shelf in my garage until last night. I was cleaning out the garage and came across it again, I forgot I had it. So after cleaning I pulled the car in and gave mounting the wing a shot.

I dont even know if i did it right! I placed it on the hatch a few times and it wanted to sit the way i mounted it. It has a lip on top that just wanted to sit over the ridge. It looks good top side but now that i'm looking at my mid wing and others the bottom of the one I have just don't look right. Is it my mount job or is it the wing?

Please tell me what you make of it.

P.S. I have no idea what brand it is.

    I want one where did you get it?
    And if it it fits tight and wont come loose don't think you have anything to worry about.
    they weren't meant or wagons so idk if they are supposed to fit perfect.

    looks good to me. I would love to get one of these and fill in that hideous gap in the middle. My rear wiper is deleted anyway and I figured it will look much better without the gapped tooth look.

    I have no idea where it came from. When I bought the car it was one of many spare parts that came with it, including a turbo kit, front and rear sway bars, and a bunch of skunk2 stuff.

    that gap is the jdm trunk handle XD

    I guess if the wing was painted the same color as the hatch I couldn't notice the gap under the wing as much.

    did you drill to mount it? it looks good to me. i would at least paint it black to match your trim and stuff if you aren't gonna do it body colored any time soon.

    There were 6 bolts, 3 on each side. 2 of them were very hard to get in place without cutting the hatch so i didn't use them. Only 4 bolts are holding it secure.

    Lol, it is painted black. That is how badly faded my rear bumper is. But yes, I will paint it to look better soon.

    post some pics of the mounting locations... like, where you put the bolts through...
  • mrhalfwittmrhalfwitt Band Wagon
    It was such a pain in the butt to get 4 of the 6 bolts in I'd rather not take it back off. But if I do i'll be sure to take a few pix for you to see.

    Wingswest midwing, i believe. looks like you did it right.
    for people that want something similar without the wiper arm cutout, 1988-ish Prelude trunk spoilers fit just like this ;)

    Well, it might be a wingswest manufactured wing, but the design is Honda.

    Do they make that wing as a full piece?So it would hide the wiper hole after it was deleted.It kinda looks odd with the hole in the middle.

    Having not looked into it I would say NO.

    But please feel free to do research and prove me otherwise.

    I always search all the forums before I ask a question.You are right though cant find one anywhere.Ill have to make one and see how it looks as one piece.
