need more specifics, does it do it at idleor a certain speed or rpm? Consitant vibration, or intermittent?

I think my spelling is going to be wrong
but if it shakes really bad I would look at the
"harmonic balencer" first.

If the purpose of a wing is to apply down force to the drive wheels at high speeds, shouldn't the wing on most imports be mounted on the hood?

Does it vibrate when you drive or does it vibrate when the car is parked? What were you doing when you noticed the car starting to vibrate?

I had one of my cars vibrate like a bitch at about 75mph and it was two things... Shitty stock driveshaft and one of the bolts holding the DS to the rear end was loose! Oh well, hope you find out what it is man.

it could be any of the following.
1.Harmonic balancer.
2.Loose drive shaft or drive shaft is bad (unbalanced)
3.tranny mount is bad.
4.Wheels are off balanced.

if it is rpm related, its probably the balancer. speed related, it is in the drivetrain somewhere

Before anything you should check the lugnuts and tire pressure for each wheel. Sounds dumb but it could be as simple as that.
