What do you think of this wing?
Got really bored so wondering what you guys thought of this wing on a 5th gen.
I like the look of it on this 4th gen.
This is the original pic I modified for comparision. (love AE's.. knew I should've waited one more year!)
Suppose I should be doing something more constructive with my time... like finding a job!

I'm gonna say the same thing I said last time somebody wanted to slap a tanning bed on their car. And correct me if I'm wrong.
1) Unless the wing is at the level of the roof, it does jack sh*t.
2) If the wing exerts force downward on the back wheels, it also adds an upward force to the front, which no maxima owner wants because the maxima is FRONT WHEEL DRIVE!

Wrong! It shows me where the rear-end of my car is when I'm backing up!

It seems nearly everyone on the board has or will be upgrading to 18" wheels. I'm sure that kakipopo didn't buy his 20" chrome wheels so that his car would be faster, but you have to admit his car looks bad aZZ! And there are several other members that will vouch for that.
Bottom line is that the balance of performance and style is different for everyone. If that weren't the case then I think all of our cars would look the same.
This is not intended to be a flame, I'm just simply stating my opinion and reminding that everyone else has theirs, too. Thank you.
