ALL wings are just for show on a street car. As I said in the original post, the stock wing weighs 13.5lbs. If carbon is any lighter, it would only be by a few pounds.

I asked myself why I needed it at all... the bling factor? the extra weight? the extra aero drag? the unsafe obstructed rear view? the attention from cops? nope.


...hey I forgot an added Wisconsin benefit of this. It's way easier to clean a foot of snow off your trunk!
