Well for street cars wings are mainly for appearance only. At high speeds wings provide downforce resulting in better traction and control. What does your car look like? Maybe you could post a picture of your car so that we could give you some suggestions for different wing types that would look good.

Erm...downforce is only useful for RWD vehicles...sadly our Accord are FWD.

You drill holes into your trunk and secure it.

Many, many styles ranging from fiberglass to CF.

[align=left]I would say no wing but if you do go with one, get a stock wing they are subtle and look the best and because you have an accord(FWD) you dont need one.

If it didn't come with the car or its not a stock replacment, it shouldn't be on your car.

I have a 96 accord four door, and four cyl (if it matters) but I just bought a "M3" wing for 20 bucks (from a friend at bmw) does anyone think this was a good buy or that it will look good.

Even though people say that wings are huge, ugly and ricey, I would have to say a carbon fiber type r wing is mint on any civic, accord, or integra. Check it out.
