Default A modified wing




What do you guys think? And please be honest. It is a GT2 RS wing modified. It has 4 inch extra in height and 8in width added on the top wing.

The width is fine but I think it's too tall.

Thank you for your honesty. I am looking for loud. Tired of the boring stock wing.

If you add additional aero like the black Vorsteiner car, it may look better. Just too much as it currently sits in my opinion.

I agree with the comments above, the wider wing is great. The height not so much and the angle of attack is a bit extreme. All of this is my opinion.

If you can modify it to look more like the Vorsteiner's height and angle of attack, you would have an impressive and not ordinary wing without going too much over the top.

I’m being honest, as requested. I think it looks ridiculous.

That said, it doesn’t matter what I think. What you (the OP) think is the important thing here. If you like it, then go with it.

Not a fan, too tall, too overbearing, too boyish, and too speed racer. It destroys the look of your car. But, I see you're in CA so perhaps it's acceptable there. JMO

I like the front lip spoiler and rear wing setup on this much better. Looks aggressive but not out of place.
