Hey everyone, currently own a grand prix white 85 3.2L turbo body coupe. Currently have a turbo wing on the car, but l'm thinking of changing it to one with no wing at all. Anyone here have any pics of what it would look like? can't really seem to find any turbo body Carrera's with no wing. Cheers

IMO, it looks terrible and like a beetle on steroids! T-Tail is so iconic and right for a wide body. I wouldn't get rid of it....

It's definitely an interesting look!

Keep the turbo tail!
It looks just wrong without it.

Thanks for the replies, after looking at these photo's l'm going to keep the wing. After going through some of my photo's, the turbo wing does suit a turbo body.

I have an '85 GP White no-tail. I think your car looks great as it is, but if you want to actually try on a no-tail and are in the SF Bay area, you're welcome to come by and put it on. The AC rear condenser is already removed so it would actually be pretty easy on my end.
