Who is going to....
...shave the wing? Put me down. I've never been a fan of wings. On some cars, it looks good or decent, but I've always been for clean and sleak. Tint, lowered, wheels/rims and a shaved wing. Now that's drool worthy. 
What do you think?

Why shave just the wing, shave the entire trunk! That huge Chevy bowtie’s got to get of my Cobalt in 3.5 seconds!
I will not make any final judgments on the wing till I see it in person, but right now Its looking good

It looks good with and without.... I'll see but I think I will just keep it. Definitely a cop attractant though, although I guess so is a top speed of 230+ kmh that will HAVE to be tested out at least once! :mrgreen:

You know now this may seem a little OUT THERE> and may be the cause of no sleep lately, but why doesnt anyone put the wing on the FRONT of the car. I would like to see that. 
Sad thing is im sure some dork has already done that.

And if you think about it. Your going to have holes in your trunk and then you have to sand it fill it and paint it. ON A BRAND "NEW" CAR!!!!!
Give the car a chance and lets see what it looks like in person.

WOW ok i guess. hey we all can make our own decisions. And i would like to see them take off the wing in order for you to buy it. That would be pretty funny.

Well its just so tacky to me---looks like an add on on a clean design.
And if they wouldn't take it off for me--out the door I go! :P
They should leave leather as an option and the wing. I hate paying for crap I do not want. Cars are not nearly as customizable as years ago--now they are almost always the same.

Thats true. You shouldnt be charged for something you dont want, but I think there's a limit to that. If you go and buy a new video game do you tell them you only want the game and NOT THE PACKAGE. I think they charge you for it no matter what. "ITS JUST HOW IT COMES" Thats just what I think, and im not baggin.

I have heard they do this to cut down on combonations of a car that can be bulit. By having only 6 or so possible combonations it would increase your chances of findiong on on a local dealers lot.
On top of that a dealer must think about the colours too.
This would be VS 20. Trucks are still highly customizable though.

I like both of the wings available for the cobalt. Nobody liked the high profile wing for the redline until it came out. It actually looks good now that people have seen it from different angles, and not just one. Give it a chance, and if you don't like it, shave it.
No dealership is going to take the wing off and pay for the trunk to be shaved and repainted, just so you buy the car. If that's a good reason not to buy a car, sadly, some people would only settle for taking public transportation.
