I like it better with out. The reason for the Poll was to see what other people thought. Some of my friends said take it off some said leave it. I planned to remove it anyhow.

why on gods earth would you put those spinners on your wheels?

This is called coming up with a solution by thinking out side the box.
SVO/Lincoln 5 Lug conversion, only way you can make the center caps fit the front. And running with out the center caps looks like @ss.

Even with a 1/4" spacer on the wheel;




I have actually got many complements on them from people who have seen them in person, have had a couple people offer to buy them from me if I ever change wheels. Even had the owner of a 2000 Cobra R ask me what kind of wheels they where, LOL.



I am doing a SN95 conversion on the car now but I may keep the spinner modified centers anyway, gives me a unique one off set of wheels unless someone copies me.

Honestly I dont see that happening. It is an ingenious way to make the caps work though, It does look better with them as compared to no cap though..

I've never liked those wings on any model, and coupes look so good on their own without a spoiler. Ditch that thing!

The only wing that looks somewhat acceptable on a notch is the special edition wing. Any other wing looks obnoxious on a notch. That is, of course, IMHO.

That said, if I had a notch, I'd be wingless.

No wing on the notch, keep the lines simple.
