Default tell me-should i get rid of the saleen wing?

If i was successful, there are pics of my silve coupe, I am not crazy about the wing, thinking i might want to remove it. I do like them of hatchbacks, but not to sure about the way they look on a coupe. What is your opinion???

unless you take the car to a track, or routinely drive fast enough to need the downforce...i say drop it. thats one sexy looking notch. the wheels go well with the car. ive always been a fan of the 5 spokes on a fox

marx91, thats a nice looking h/b, and i did take your advice and get the bigger dia. tail pipes.
seeing your pic make me remember driving in snow, dont think i would enjoy that in a 5.0 fox.

Nice fox, If you didn't have it on I would say don't buy it, but since its ok just leave it, it doesnt look bad...

leave the wing on there. it makes the car NOT look like crap

i have never been a fan of foxes... but if you take it off.. your fox will look just like everyone elses

ditch it. Unless you drive where you need the downforce I couldnt justify it.
Just my opinion, but if you ditch the spolier and cowl hood (if you dont need the clearance), youll have a hell of a sleeper.
Love the 302 badges btw.
