Going wingless, opinions, experiences, ideas.
Please finish either of these sentences, I want opinions and ideas as I am considering removing the wing from my 2011 GSR. Thanks!

it looks a little cleaner and a little less rice, I won't go wingless on my IX and if you have a large-ish functional wing I wouldn't recommend it either. I went wingless on my 07 sti which has a large functional wing and noticed that on the highway at 60+mph the car didn't feel as planted as it had with the wing.
Just my .02

i think you would get better responses if.... you posted in the right forum.
there i finished the sentence for you.
but aside from that, it sometimes looks cleaner if everything else flowed better to compensate for the missing wing.
but i have read at high speeds the rear doesnt feel as planted. thus for this reason i've kept it.
i might in the end go wingless around town, but depending.

I can see all the reasons why, to go without the rear spoiler. I would not want to be at higher speeds without it. The aero parts serve important functions on Evos. I just put on a vortex generator, which I've never had, and noticed s smoother linear feel on the highway.
I had never spun out at the track until the time I took my wing off lol....
In the city I don't rock the wing, but at the track I certainly do
IDK quite how many mpg the improvement is, but it makes a difference.
It looks clean.
Less cop attention (important if you're in komifornia).
Better mpg.
I guess it comes down to if you DD or not. I hardly ever go to the track and have too many speeding tickets to go over 70mpg on the hwy, so I keep the wing off.

Bought an RS and had Wing Evy so I bought a Trunk with a Wing and drove around for about a month, got pulled over twice for absolutely nothing!! Profiled and defiled!!! So off comes the wing and guess what? No ****, no random pull overs!!! Who says the PoPo don't notice the wing!!
