the thing is i am planning on tracking this car as much as possible, after all the mods mentioned and if i think its not fast enough, i even considered FI. thats what im stuck on, sacrifice looks for downforce....hmmm hard decision

Function over form if you're going for a track monster. And when I say yes to spoiler, I don't mean the oem spoiler either. Make sure that thing helps with your lap times or it's a waste.

I personally like the wing.. I find the rear end a bit bare without it.

The wing i was planning to get is called voltex, theyre a company from japan that wind tunnel test their spoilers. Good function but really expensive. Probably around $1500 for one i think

I think this one would look good on there. It's not huge and it's carbon fiber...

Voltex GT Type 3

Wing if and only if your tracking the car. So when are you going to get it?

Wing always (or very least that strafe trunk with the molded lip)

Out of the thousand wingless G's ive seen on this forum probably only 5 looked good without a wing while the other 995 would look better with one. Either strafe trunk lip, or the 03-05 ironboard.

Wing!

The G generates rear lift. I have the OEM lip and air guides under the rear. With this combo they promise zero lift. With your wing you can actually get some downforce.

The color looks really nice. Make sure to post more pics when you can.

As for the wing, for Aesthetics I like wingless. But if the wing serves an actual purpose it would be a toss up. Even when you aren't on the track you are going to have to rock that wing.

My thoughts exactly. That's why I have the ironboard on my 06.
