Default Did You Say Rear Wing?

Despite the fact that I already have one, I am always looking at Corvettes for sale.

Well I found this one.

What do you think of that rear wing?

I used to like wings like that one. Then the fever broke and the dilirium ended!

Now, as others have said, no way in hell one of those is going on any car of mine.

Not a fan of large rear wings on the vettes. I think it cheapens the sophisticated, classy, refined look.

I think it is a Greenwood, so you can probably get some $ for it.

That would look cool....back when I was 16. Love the extra tacky touch of the fake Z06 screens too, really sets it off.

Having money does not equate having a good taste.

Well, lets try to be positive, it looks, looks, like, its..... beauty challenged...
It would be a great vehicle to use at the Raiders game in the parking lot "Tail Party" so you can put your hot dogs and drinks on it... Yea MPS, multi-purposed-spoiler! Yea that's the ticket.. Kinda like it fell out of an ugly tree and hit every friggin branch on the way down.. I had to just say it... NO ON THE SPOILER

LOL... I have the entire package, rear spoiler, rear valance and rockers that go with this kit, had to remove the chin spoiler (bad roads, too low). The kit is still sold (Corvette America). I hear you all with the butt ugly stuff but frankly I get nothing but thumbs up and looks with the kit it really improves the looks of the "skinny" stock car in my humble opinion. I regularly get guys racing up to get a look and see them, "its a Vette look"!! My 03 vert has had the kit on since it was unloaded off of the truck from Bowling Greens and I have loved it since new. But in closing it is not for the Corvette purest for sure. (The wing is a handy table to put your favorite beverage too!) Greetings, El original
