Might look better tucked closer to the body. Hugged right up on it.
My buddy had a yellow 02' Z06 with a big wing on it similar and I never liked it. I personally only like 2 options. Either the Carvagio spoiler(spelling), or the Tiger Shark rear end. I like that you are looking for something different though. Hope it works out.

I like it. Nice to seem something new and modified to work on a different car- not the same stuff posted over and over again.

That actually flows pretty well with the body lines. I appreciate the creativity
