What do you kiddies think of this wing?

http://www.members.shaw.ca/rob970/pics4/new%20again/Picture%20009.jpg

I've been looking for a mid-wing for my car (something along the lines of a Type-R style), but I can get this guy for a killer deal since the guy really wants to get rid of it.

Personally I just love the lines of it, it's just a little too high for my tastes (by like a foot, lol!)...HOWEVER, since I'd have to repaint it, (I'd be getting my trunk filled & shaved as well) I could take the time to shave down the part that attaches to the trunk by an inch or so...

Thoughts?

Not bad, I still think stock wing looks best.

What do you like about it?

Go wingless or stock, any bigger and it just looks horrible. This is an example of horrible.

It is a little bit too high, but if you could knock off an inch or two it wouldn't be too bad.

It is still alot better than those double decker sheet metal wings.

your going to get some crazy down force with that....

:burnout:

keep it stock and spend the money on a good suspension set up.

i would say leave it low key, the wing is not going to make a functional difference, as for looks, that's up to your preference.

Haha, already have suspension boys, and one of the best you can on these crappy cars... :poosie:

I like the lines of it on the Cavs personally, it's just a shame that it's 2 feet tall. lol

Not really a fan of the stock lip wing with our cars. Meh, we'll see, like I said I'd have to re-do the entire trunk and the wing would get knocked down somewhat...

I was supposed to have a photoshop pic up with it cut down too, but somehow the pic never showed up on my webspace when I saved it at the Uni, thus I have to start from scratch...:banghead:

There is obviously a reason why he wants to get rid of it, next week it will be the wheels:rofl:

If you want ppl to think that you have a really fast car and you need all that downforce, then go ahead....

Personally I only like the color of that wing. ALOT. Otherwise like every one else has said its way to big. If you can trim it down at least 2 inchs that would be the only way i would get it. Remeber though if you trim it down then at the bottom its gunna have a funny fit

dude the flaming here is in no way shape or form j-body exclusive...if that wing was on ANY car, there would be equal flaming. what do you expect on a car forum that puts emphasis on clean well modded cars, not airplane wannabe's.

and ya, it looks like an airplane IMO.

If you like it then go for it!

By shaving it down you would have something that no one else does, that is always a bonus :bigpimp:

I'm sure they didn't mean anything demeaning dude...

If you are going to post a question "What do you kiddies think of this wing?" you are going to have to accept the fact that you will get all types of responses, good or bad. Accept it, live with it, move on...

I'd post my opinion, but does it really matter? If Paul is happy with it, that is all that matters.

If it is for show, it looks okay, but like some mentioned above, you'll probably get some downforce if you take it on the track or something.

It's not hate, or looking down.

He posted a picture and asked for opinions...and opinions is what he got...both good and bad.

If you have issues with that, click the "back" button, or read and dont post it's all you. But don't start haterading on haterades when they are doing what the thread starter asked...

If you like the wing, keep it as is, if ya don't listen to some of the suggestions. Its ridiculous to even mention downforce on street cars so its all about the look you are after. I mean the car looks fine to me, not something I would do to my own ride but to each his own.

If you want to feel accepted on this forum, you have to keep your car looking stock because thats the trend and everyone and their moms will tell you to remove wings, remove decals, buy multipiece volks, buy a turbo, etc.

If you ever stray from the norm you'll get flamed.

(wow, 3 paragraphs, all starting with IF.. woot)

Haha, :drama:

Look what I've done - How the hell did all you people end up in the Southern AB forum anyways?!? I really only expected the usual 6 people to reply here! lol

I guess I should have asked something more specfic along the lines of "do you think this wing follows the lines of this here car (Cavalier in this case) even though ITS 40 FEET TALL? :nut:
