personal preference I like it only with a cowl hood, stock real saleens could pull it off with stock hoods but gts cant in my opinion.

With a 3" cowl, I think the bigger Saleen wing helps to balance it out. Except for Tunedins car, his looks great with the GT wing. Im gonna go Saleen when I do my paint/stripes.

What about a cobra wing?

Some cars looks good with the saleen...others not so good.

I think with the cobra wing you then need the cobra rear bumper....but i like the GT Bumper and exhuast set up too much.....side note: I still have the stock cheese graters on and there not coming off

Is there any companies that make a Cobra rear lip for an LX? I wanna put the Cobra wing on mine and put a Cobra bumper on but don't wanna swap out all my moldings... Just need a lip and mold it in.

That's a big negatory good buddy....only Countach's need wings of the Saleen kind, and even they are kinda gay.

I would have to say nay. LOL even thought thats what I got. It does help with the balance of the front and rear with a cowl hood but I would personally go a different route. I am gonna repaint my car sometime soon and when I do the Saleen wing is history.

We dont have many options as it is, so you have the stock wing, an lx wing, a saleen wing, or the cobra.... or that one that looks like an lx wing with a boner... with a bigger hood, id say saleen or cobra

I say no way. Of course, I like a car that doesnt look custom or flashy.

Lol, im the exact opposite. I want a car to be as different (but not fugly) as possible. especially when you own a car that 10 million other people own, to me it takes more to stand out from the crowd than to blend in. but again, we dont have many choices for wings. someone would make a killing designing decent aftermarket wings for our cars.
