No wing. Remove anything vaguely reminiscent of Rally Art.

the large wing i believe costs extra where as the small one does not? they both might I'm not sure, but I'm pretty sure the large wing is an option.

I want someone to design an aftermarket hydraulic wing that lies low until we flip a switch, then raises about a foot-and-a-half off the trunk deck and gives some serious downforce. Anyone wanna tip off the aftermarket designers? If they don't make it, I'm going to need to fab my own which is gonna be hella-expensive and hella difficult too.

Big wing is very gay. Wings are for fairies. I love taking a good hard look at the drivers of riced up cars. Always good for a laugh.

The big wing is NOT extra. Its included in MSRP. It states it right on the Pamphlet.

BTW its off the hook

Some spoilers are functional as in the case of the EVO. I suppose the big whale tale of the Porsche and the Supra-like Ferrari F-40 (and F-50) are just riced out additions as well? I personally get a good laugh when people can't distinguish function from cosmetic.

All evo's (I-VII), have had big wings. (For their time period)
So putting a small wing on an evo would be wrong.

Functional doesn't mean essential. This car is available with a small spoiler and maybe with nothing, which proves my point. It always cracks me up when kids try to justify something like that by saying it's "functional". Like you're a race car driver. Ok sure. LOL. By the way, the wings on Porches etc also look ridiculous and ruin the line of the car. I suppose thats why Porsche spoilers automatically retract under 70 mph. A wing like this is like driving around with a sign on your car that says, "I still live with my parents, and I'm hoping this car makes me cool". LOL

Looks is totally up to the owner...you laughing at them for a huge spoiler may mean they are laughing at you for not having one.
