Default stock s4 wing?or mine?

Saw this black 928 on google and just loved it, my 928 is black as well I just want some opinions on it, should I keep the stock wing or should I paint mine and swap it?

I am kind of partial to the stock wing myself. Especially on a street car.

I hear ya, part of me loves the stock wing but a race wing looks good to so I'm a little stuck, I plan on doing beginner track days with it but have my dads manual 79 for track later on

It will look very good on your HOOD for added front down force to counter the uundersteer. Mark Kibort uses a splitter, but this offers more potential down force.

How would that wing mount? I'd like to see a wing kit for track 928s. Carl? Carl?

Oh yeah...

That's another thing, I have to get a metal guy to make custom clamps or whatever it's called to mount in place of other

young Rick, go stock with the wing! that wing is way too ricer for that car and what you are doing with it. plus, i dont think it would look right, especially with the mounting brackets. its really for the rear of a honda trunk.
or maybe scot could use it.

I think we need to encourage people to push the envelope, mechanically and stylisticaly, to improve the breed.

So Mark, any pic of how your big wing attaches?
