IMO, this is how I would see it on the street. Suits more to be in the track.

yea i wish you could do that too.. By the looks of it, if you remove that wing you are going to have a lot of holes to fill up...

is wing that size legal on street?

I absolutely LOVE the wing. BUT, and this is a big but (and I cannot lie), with just a street car, that's still not making a huge amount of power, it's a bit over kill. Try maybe a more exaggerated lip spoiler, kind of like what Lux-Motion has, because honestly, unless you're planning to track this pretty often, it's too much for street use.

^ agree. Awesome for track car, way to much for street car.

It would interesting to see if someone could develop a wing like many of the Porsches have that would rise up from the rear as you reach the appropriate speed. But that would mean it would probably stay lowered 99% of the time.

I agree with the Lux-Motion idea. Here's another aggressive lip from AB Flug that think would work.

+ if you're a baller and have got extra bills laying around, you could get this SARD wing. It looks like it attaches under the trunk so you would not need to drill through it. That way you could take it off when you're not on the track.
