Hmm, I've seen a few people on here asking around for window visors. I however would be VERY interested in a roof spoiler for the hatchback if there's any way you could make one. I don't know if  there were ever any made for the S12. I'd like to see some renderings or a prototype of it first though. Pricewise, maybe $200 max?

Do you have any examples of your work?

I definitely want one. My buddy and I tried to fab the same thing on his celica. The supra wings go through the glass but mounting a wing to the hatch of an s12 should be easy. Now cardboard and duct tape sounds like great material for the wing itself.

Looks like it has potential, like I said, I'd be interested if you could make a roof spoiler for the hatchback.

RomeroFeb 22, 2013, 5:56 pm · #11

i think this will look good on even a notch

Looks awesome man, the only thing I'll say is: try and make sure it stays true to the s12's shape, boxy and defined edges, minimal curves, and just have it angled upwards a little bit more.

Thanks for the Feed back i'll keep them in mind when i do the full scale mock up  But I Need More Feed back from other members that would be just awsome :)
BkhaosFeb 22, 2013, 7:08 pm · #15

It looks awesome but I think on an s12 it would look better with less curve of the hatch or completely flat.

vegasS12Feb 22, 2013, 7:43 pm · #16

Thats awesome!

ArroFeb 22, 2013, 8:16 pm · #17

This reminds me of the RA65 Celica Supra spoiler, only more subtle...

side note, in an image search for RA65 spoiler, my S12 came up twice in a row on the second page :P Followed by Keith's copper S12 hatch.

Is Subtle Bad Arro ?
ArroFeb 22, 2013, 9:53 pm · #19

Not at all. It makes it different than just copying the RA65 version. I like the idea, and in fact I'd consider sporting one on my two-tone S12.

witch one ?? the coupe trunk duck bill ?
I_heart_VVLFeb 23, 2013, 2:02 pm · #21

Definitely would get a window visor for the hatch as long as fitment is good :)

sideways_s12Feb 23, 2013, 2:14 pm · #22

I would like to see a finished prototype before i make a decision....

I like this look,  I like how it follows the roof line straight over the window,  that's the only kind of roof spoiler I'd like aesthetically on my S12.
pakii-afaFeb 23, 2013, 3:54 pm · #24

I too would be very interest in both door visors and a spoiler for the hatch. I'm also thinking about trying to mock up a spoiler that goes over the original spoiler.

I would be interested in the coupe rear window visor the duck bill not so much my style. even though it looks good not the route im going with on my car.
DjayS12Feb 23, 2013, 5:52 pm · #27

I'm curious at how a duck tail wing will look on a coupe. I think it is possible to make it look good... and also possible to make it look hideous lol.

Just an idea if you want to try some shapes on your car without damaging it. Buy a tube of insulating foam, lay a piece of cloth or something to protect your trunk and spray the foam on it, then cut/sand it into shape. It will give a better idea of what it will looks like.

Well By The End Of This Month I Should Have A Full Scale Mock Up  Guys I'll Keep Every One Updated And Feed Back Is Great Keep  Posting On  The Thread !

What do you suggest ??
pakii-afaFeb 25, 2013, 8:46 pm · #33

fender flares would be epic, i know we can already make our cars look good with the z flares, but a s12 specific one would just be way way way better. id say go for it, see what your mocks up look like, if theyre what we want we will buy them :) ive been wanting window visors and a flush roof spoiler ever since i got my car pretty much.

You cant count me in for a duckbill for a hatch!

SchizophrenicMCMar 1, 2013, 7:53 pm · #38

Unless you can design a duckbill that spoils laminar flow, why add the weight? Damn body kit fixation.

The only reason the Celica Supra got a roof wing was because they wanted sunshade, but didn't want to copy the 280ZX with its louvers. It's also not a duckbill spoiler.

Actually, all the cars I can think of that have duckbills are Civic hatchbacks and VW Beetle Turbos.

for a roof spoiler (duckbill i guess,)

something simple like this for an s13 but it would have to follow the shape on an s12, maybe an 1-2inches farther back depending on style. for me atleast

burritomannnMar 2, 2013, 3:08 pm · #43

The supra roof spoiler looks neat. Would it simply be a plastic piece or are you considering any other material? A dark filmed "glass-like" visor/ duckbill would look nice imo for the hatch... Keep us updated!

I'd kill for those window visors^^       :cool2:

sideways_s12Mar 2, 2013, 8:44 pm · #44

Fourth Pic is win! I would love that spoiler...We need someone to make those...

well sideways s12 ima make some since i really want one

well git'er done then lol I would love to see a finished pic so keep me informed...

pakii-afaMar 2, 2013, 9:41 pm · #47

i personally think the original spoiler is the best one for the s12, but there is also the thought of a duckbill moulded onto it, which sounds interesting. i really just want a roof spoiler for the hatch and the visors. (all i need is a name and and address of who im supposed to kill for those visors in above pic) lol

sideways_s12Mar 2, 2013, 9:51 pm · #48

Justen was actually selling a set he might still have them...

pakii-afaMar 3, 2013, 6:29 pm · #49

theyre pricey though, like 300 bucks i think. worth it but also a lot to put out for an aesthetic part.

sideways_s12Mar 3, 2013, 8:27 pm · #50

true!
