Wing or No Wing

I was originally planning on keeping my SS/SC wingless... but now im leaning towards putting the wing back on. It looks so sleek without it, but its kind of the SC & TC "playful" look.. Opinions?

do you already have holes in your trunk for the wing? Did you patch them up if you removed the wing?

If you had them professionally filled, then I wouldn't put the wing back on. Just my 2 cents! If your car is lowered then wingless all the way ... if it's not, then I would put the wing on. For some reason wingless ot me looks better lowered and on stock height winged looks better!

Wing on! It's one of the few cars that works with a high profile wing (mainly cuz it's factory designed into the bodylines). So you might as well run with it!

No the holes are not professionally filled in. They are temporarily closed so water doesnt go in them, but they are still there (I was planning on just getting some gloss black vinyl to cover them up for now so they look a LIL better).

I do plan on getting coilovers but not anytime in the immediate future, she sits on stock suspension for now.

And yes, slammed wingless = sex.

Just like in your signature!!! If that car had the high rise it'd look so out of place ... everything on the car is low, but you have some BFW on the back of it ...

My opinion

Lowered = wingless
Stock height = winged

Why would the high rise be a target for the cops?

My buddy who has a black TC has the high rise and when we cruise together and a cop happens to be nearby they always target him first over my low rise for some reason.

I guess the cops look at it as being younger, driving faster, blah blah blah that they always assume and stereotype.

I like the wings.

The DD was bought with out a wing (my buddy had removed it) and the first thing I did was buy one and have it installed.
