I was just wondering, and forgive me if it's already been posted, but I was thinking of losin the wing. Is there a how to on this, and what is the pros and cons of not having a wing, is the wing just for show or does it serve a purpose???

Thanks for any reply's!!!!

 

it has now been proven that it creates down force at high speeds. that is just extra weight that you dont need IMO. its getting hot out now, just leave your car in the sun and when your trunk gets hot unbolt the 4 nuts under your trunk. then take your 15lbs fishing line and in a 'sawing motion' cut out the doublesided tape. next time SEARCH

 

In "theory" it provides a little downforce at 70mph... If it is removed you would have to find a way to patch/cover the holes, and GM was nice enough to not make it as simple as a plug or 2 by punching out some funny looking ( ) around the holes. So if you decide to go wingless you have 3 options.

1.) Trade trunks with a wingless balt (good luck)
2.) Remove wing and cover holes with colored vinyl
3.) Remove wing and patch/paint the trunk holes

As far as removal, its 4 screws and some body molding tape

 

Its just for show... It detaches with four bolts in the trunk and you have to get a crap ton of doublesided tape off that keeps it on... fishing line and goo gone and it should be good... but they you need to fill up the holes so no water gets in

 

it actually does provide down force for the car.. thats a pro of it.. the con is that you cant hardly see past it the rear veiw.. lol and i do believe there is a how to on this..

 

oh, and yes it has been discussed 10x already

 

wow im slow lol

 

Thanks!

lol yea I'm only repeating what other's have already asked, but it was getting late, and I just wanted a quick response....and I got it!! Thanks again

 

more like 110x.. lol

 

The wing is a bitch to get off and you'll have to get the trunk welded shut and repainted. The downforce thing at high speed I think is BS! All that thing did was flop up and down and create drag. My car is just as stable at high speeds without it, and it's a hell of a lot better looking now! Just look at how sleek it looks now.

 

wingless is t3h sex

/discussion

 

I know I saw this in the show off your wheels, I love that wingless set up....so about having it welded shut and repainted. How did you go about do this?

 

i like the wings looks, wingless looks to much like a normal car.

 

yeah but you get a sleeper look without one..

 

Makes the car look more classy instead of boy racer IMO

 

yeah that was the main reason it was put on there to catch the attention of young boys thats done watched the fast and the furious to many times.. they did the same with the evo, sti, celica, srt-4 and god knows how many other cars to sell to young peps..
