Default Rear Wing

Considering this. Any opinions for a NB?

it's not bad. (and frankly, that's a lot.)
And it doesn't get in rear-mirror view. (whoops -- strike that)

That would look great and would be quite functional if you were attaching it to a shopping cart. I don't like it..but that's me.

I wonder what it looks like with the wing in the "up" position?

Kinda girlie looking. And I doubt it will have any significant aerodynamic impact.

down, it kinda, sorta honors the profile lines of a ducktail -- still my fav. (Like classic Coke.)
But up, and things become sorta 'gimmicky'-pronounced.

I really hope Jim doesn't see it that way, because my initial comment wasn't meant as an insult

As for my orange pumpkin, it will be a fun night
