Wingless looks good most of the time, but I'm not sure if I like this one that way or not.

I don't care for it with out the wing. Just looks a bit naked. Plus the vortex generator looks lost with out the companion wing.

It still reduces drag, just not lift. I suggest you actually read Mitsubishi's technical paper.

It was wind tunnel tested and designed to work in conjunction with the factory wing

Look gay. Put the wing back where it belong. The owner should bought the RS instead if he doesnt want the wing.

Just curious, did you remove it because it's an Obnoxious Cop Magnet. That's why I have considered taking mine off. Otherwise in a perfect world I have become accustomed to the wing.

Yea, It looked pretty good from the front. Sorry about the picture angle it was taken in traffic.

Different transmission. Different turbo. Different color. Let him do what he likes. You want a faster car? You should have bought a Lambo.

It's actually not my car and the guy driving it was in his mid 40 and had a business get up, so I'm guessing he wanted lower profile.

He also had an AMS front mount if I recall correctly.
