    To wing or not to wing

    I wouldnt mind a little of the board's opinion... it may end up deciding my car's look.

    Pictures are not my car, but almost exactly what it will look like. (I have chrome kidneys, no shadow line, side repeaters, and 5-spoke's with polished lip... only differences)

    Here's my question regarding the spoiler.
    I have a MtechI wing - should i mount that, do like this guy did, or go clean (no wing)?

      I kind of dig the wing less look. But on the other hand mtech1 spoilers on white cars looks hot. Does your car already have the is spoiler on it now?

          I say wing it. Although you may have to do a shadow-line to make it work. See, I think the chrome is a more luxury look (not bad though), and the black trim helps the sporty accents like spoilers.

            im with you all the way. im a big chrome kidney advocate and the chrome around the windows and the polished lip look awesome together on a white car... but that car looks hot too. im torn!

                  the mtech1 wing barely is a wing at all.. it is a nice addition i dont see how you will not like it. its barely noticeable from some angles .

                  Wing it. shadowline it.keep chrome lip. black kidney. ///Look Good.

                  i dont know what the repeaters are.

                    I wonder what white kidney rings would look like on a white car?

                            Is your car white? Personaly i think body color kidney rings would look cool on alot of cars. I had chrome kidney rings in my black 87 and when i shadowlined it and put the eyebrows on it they looked out of place. But i took the rings off and painted them gloss black and i couldn't be happier.

                              Use three drops of silicone, if you don't like the way it looks, just take it out, if you do., drill.

                              I have that wing, and i think it looks hot, but it's your car and your call. ;)
