LOL, thanks man! I think the majority of the cleanliness is due to the 3 hour wax-on/wax-off carbuna job I did this morning. I do agree though that the wing adds the special flare that just wasn't there before. Its hard for me to be a perfectionist when my front bumper looks like its been sand blasted and my rear bumper looks like its rotting off. Cheers for new paint projects in the future.

Those extensions make it look like a cartoon character. I would think any improved airflow you would get from the wing being that high would almost be negated without having a really strong single piece to keep it more stable.

Your car: "I want a splitter! Not wing extensions!"

What do you mean by "a really strong single piece"?
Where can I buy one?

My car told me it wants a splitter too! Just need to come up with the funds, and enough confidence to rock one without ripping it off on my first drive home!

Strong single piece mounts for each side. As the wing gets higher the supports need to get stronger.

Ah yes, I'm planning to get a video of any possible flex in the wing and wing stands in the near future.

I already see you eyeing some front bumpers on the FS forum. You also had a new amp and custom trunk work done as well. Are you trying to become a show car for Wekfest now?
