I like the wing and the gold wheels, just not the style of the wheels. I agree with Randy that some gold pinstriping would set the car off nicely but disagree with the gold badging. I despise gold badging.

I'm not a fan of the badges at all. But, if you're gonna have 'em, they may as well be gold in THIS particular instance.

Answers to some of the questions:

the CF weighs about half as much as the OE US wing
the CF quaility and finish is more just for a "race look" as opposed to "showcar look"
I loved those Capris in the 80s. I actually had an 81 RS turbo
but mine was Cherry red, black interior etc. (they also did a white and gold edition, ..go back a few more yrs and Im sure you can remember the
Black and Gold Trans Ams !! )
No, actually I ended up sellling it to a guy in Prescott
Bought this black one outta CA, its a 94 AWD with Tan leather

Paint a huge gold dollar sign across the hood, and we can call it the Schiznit-Am.
