I can't find any cold air intakes for my Malibu. I was wondering if i could just get a intake that was made for a Cavlier z24 and install it into my malibu since both cars have the same engine. And has anyone seen this kind of spoiler on any car? I'm thinking of getting it, but wanna see what it looks like on something before i buy.

If you want to see what this wing will look like you need to post a picture of your car. I suggest that you might want to ask in the Photoshop category as well.

If you drive a front wheel drive car...DONT GET A SPOILER...and if you drive a rear wheel drive car go fast enough to require one.

As for your intake just grab whatever filter type you want and some piping..take it to a metal shop and have them bend one that would twist around your motor...but im sure you can find one someplace.

As far as the "wing" goes...do what you want man its always personal taste, I wouldnt add that to my vehicle, but if it turns your crank then kosher...

The CAI, test fit one from a cav, and see how that goes, if not grab a filter, and head off to a fabrication shop like MAHK UNO said and they should be able to whip something up for you for relativley decent coin...

That wing is such an overkill.
On the CAI thing if you have a pic of your engine bay i can tell you right now if a z24 intake will fit or not.

That's a very original wing.... I've never seen it on any cars before, so I say go for it if you like it. Better to be original than to copy what someone else has done.

No man....unless you have some wacked out super crazed body kit for your car...this spoiler would be dumb...the spoiler will be dumb anyway untill you do a few other mods to your car first "considering it would be stock of course"

first thing you should do is lower your car with rims...this is the first step to a phat ride and it wont look dumb done only by itself...then move on to your fiber glass body kit first...then after that its open you could go hood, spoiler, fenders etc. keeping in mind you dont want to look faster then what you really are so please dont forget about the engine:banghead:

have any of you ever seen a car with a huge picnic table spoiler with no other mods done....its retarded and you get laughed at plus on a cavi that would look way to cheesy most spoilers would anyway it just dosent seem to have a spoiler friendly rear end..try not to be so dramatic ease some flow into your car a low pro feel with styling mods that can only be picked out by the trained eye is where respect will come from:devil:

a rear spoiler acts to deflect airflow from getting sucked underneath a car at high speeds which can create lift from under the rear wheels. any car, fwd or rwd, can benefit from this when its going fast enough and turning. of course, a street car would never get going that fast, so a spoiler is useless, other than for aesthetics.

i think its obvious that this guy is going more for looks than for performance with the wing, though i should add i do think that wing is some funny shit :rofl:

i think someone created that pic in ps as a joke haha

What the hell are you talking about, don't get a spoiler if you have a front wheel drive vehicle, there are millions of styles of spoilers to fit millions of vehicles, they don't have to have anything to do with performance or bragging rights.

Theres a red del sol in calgary that has a wing that resembles that.. its double decker, and has like lil wings that come out of the wing itself.

he tried to race my buddy's accord one time.. its got z3 fenders, I think a shogun front bumper and a huge wing.. I think thats it.
