well not really lol

Essentially I just want to narrow down my tastes on a wing for this car. The stock one isn't doing it for me.

Not a fan of the endplates, but I like the low profile look vs a tall GT wing.

Doesn't look too bad aside from the endplates IMO, at least from a silly phone app haha

Is it a track or street car? I'm a fan of the stock, feed and 99 spec wing and wingless.

It's been a long time since I looked at different wings for the car

Street. But would likely do custom mounts for anything I choose so I can put on an APR if I choose to do some weekend racing.

Yeah everyone has done those options many times over.

The car is over 20 years old, so most things will be done many times. It's your car and you can do whatever you wish to it, but that wing screams rice to me.

But to each his own.

May not look bad on another car but looks kind of like an afterthought on the FD; the wing is pretty sharp while the FD has lots of curves. Either way, would definitely drop the end plates.

Rice is what I want to avoid, hence the desire for something with a lower profile. Maybe I should have asked the question better.. really just trying to see what's out there that sticks close to the hatch lid without covering the tail lights

It's not too bad, it is growing on me.

Maybe it's one of those things I'll have to keep looking and when I see the right one I'll just 'know', you know what I mean? I've loved these cars for so long I don't even know what my 'perfect' look is anymore
