I kinda like the organic lines of the spoilers.

I kind of like them as well. I would like it better however, if the uprights were not bare aluminum but, carbon fiber like the wing itself. Or atleast painted black. I dont think that the other more dramatically curved wings that are on other vipers look as good.

I like either nothing or the stock R1 or the '99 stock wing. that's about it though.

If you put the two next to each other the bodylines are very similar.

As far as the wing goes, you better have some serious horsepower to back something like that up.

I don't like it. I looks like you just bought the car from someone who had really bad taste, and you have not had time to remove it yet.

If you're you are considering to put the wing on your FD, bad idea. I think the tail light cover/tail that member, LT1-7 has on his 7 would look really badass on your car and still retain the sleek, wingless look.
