I took mine off once, and I thought it looked pretty cool (minus the holes). I almost left it like that but my friends talked me out of it. Anyone ever do this, or have pics? Opinions?

I think it looks absolutely terrible. AND you would be getting rid of a functional wing that will change the handling characteristics of the car at high speeds.

I went wingless for a week while my Saleen wing was getting painted. It looks like ass.

Car looked like a Hatchback and a Notchback had a baby and then kicked it out of the family for being so ugly

The wingless look on a hatchback is really not my favorite. It looks like there is something missing on the car because the back end makes a sudden drop off.

Now on a notch, wingless is the way to go.

You crack me up Mike!! LOL!!!

I didn't have my wing for a few days when I changed to the GT hatch, and besides the holes, I thought it looked OK,..........different, but OK. Like anything else, it would take a while to get used to it. Reminded me of the early 80's base models without any wings. I always hated how my LX wing looked so "tacked on", but at least the GT and others look better with the way they are mounted.
