Wait a tick... I thought this was open-minded CorvetteForum. A place where the replies are supposed to read something like "not my taste, but thanks for sharing". The guy who owns that winged C6 is the same guy laughing at your chrome "CORVETTE" bumper inserts and your tacky two-tone interior color schemes. Just a reminder.

That being out of the way, I think that wing looks stupid as all hell.

Sad that someone would do something like that to a nice car like a C6.

You don't have to have brains to own a Corvette!

Now, can anyone tell the the best way to mount a gunrack in my rear window?

...it would look better with chrome bumper inserts!

I think it's for intimidation. "Don't mess with me. I have a wing bolted on my car!"

Heck, can he even open the trunk with that thing on?!

You mean that is not his gun rack - just lay 2-3 long guns on that thing and strap 'em down
