I Wasn't a Big Fan of the High Rise

I suppose, though, it's all a matter of perspective.

i finnaly bought a high rise for my ss/tc

i believe it gives the car the ss attitude. and most of the people on the streets driving who dont have a ss will know its an ss by the badges and of course the wing

I like the low rise better. but if I got an SS with a high frise I probably wouldn't bother swapping it...

The high rise is the thing that most sets the SS apart from the base models. I'm a fan.

to me the angle does it, some angles the low rise looks great and at some the SS is the way to go. Both are good looking IMO but I prefer the SS's

in my book wingless is ftw if the car is slammed. If not then highrise>lowrise.
And then of course there is always the rksport wing which is always ftw
the only thing i realy dislike about the ss wing isnt even the height, but the fact that looking from the back it just looks really narrow compared to the car, particularly if the car is lower to the ground it makes the body look wider/flatter to the ground from the back which makes the wing seem really out of place imo

I think the color also plays into the slammed look, a clean white or well polished black can really set a LOW car off, and wingless is sexi on a slammed car.

If I ever buy an SS, I have to get a high rise if it doesn't come with it already. Sweet photo

It all depends on the angle. Sometimes I love it, other times I hate it. But that's how I was with my low rise, and with my girlfriends clean trunk though too..

IMO, Stock ride height/lowered slightly = Highrise looks best
Slammed = wingless looks best


I dont care for the lil wing much

Exactly. Slammed with no spoiler looks mad slick. But if you're at stock height with no spoiler, it looks silly. lol
