Default Lend an opinion?

I bought my Z about a month ago now and I'm starting to make it my own, at the moment I'm debating if I should remove the wing and I'm torn.

Thoughts?

50/50...but as wings go,I like it.
Only negative are the portions that come down on each side.
A Blitz wing is similar..smaller &cleaner.
I'll bet the negative votes are from owners with no wings.
Either like e'm or,not like e'm.

You'd bet wrong... I have a wing. That particular wing is just ugly.

There are worse wings out there. Will removing this one leave any holes in your trunk? This wing looks better to me than cheap plugs do.

I just went outside and looked at it, I'm not even sure really how it's attached. I didn't look very hard but I don't see bolts anywhere, although I'm a complete Z noob.

I think that wing is awkward, But I like Z with and without, It dpends on the rest of the car.

I have, Had the INGs lx spoiler on mine, Its similar to that but flows better with the car. Its for sale if your interested. But now I have a asuka hatch, similar to the ings spoiler as well..

Id say take that one off, its to angular for the Z's line IMO

Heres my old Z with a 20$ ebay thing, I really liked it, subtle but fit the lines of my Z


And heres prolly the only pic I have of the INGS

After seeing another Z in person just now I've decided I'm going to take it off. Can anyone point me to where the bolts might be?

I dont like its styling but removing the wing... spoiler i mean , could get costly... even it its taped on it could hurt the paint removing it. if its been on there awhile then the paint could be a diff color under there. id say leave it if your torn between bc it could get costly. but if u hate it then yank it off
