:iagree: IMHO it looks better without it. It does not match with the lines of the car. Either way you go, your car looks awesome!

Lose it, it's just way too boxy and doesn't fit your car. That's the only thing I don't like about your car.

I think it is a very unique look. It is not very ricey except the fact that it is tall. If it were mine I would just trim off an inch (or a couple). Just find what you like. You already have a highly modified car, why keep the stock look.

I like the corvette letters to, but they may be a bit to big for my taste. It really bugs me when I see a mustang with the name written on each side of the car, on the rear, and on the windshield. Its like they need to make sure the world knows they are driving a mustang when everyone knows what one is.

Lose it. The car's lines will flow better.

I think your car is really cool looking but it would look better without the wing. Shooting a paint job like Lasse's car would be awesome. That would truly make it a keeper (although I really like your current paint scheme).

I'd dump the wing and the lettering, but it's your car
Or chop the wing shorter

Your vette looks cool in both pics, but i think bonnets & side pipes make a vette. But thats me. Your car your choice. As long as you can keep smoken those tyres thats what matters.
