I didn't notice you said Salem and didn't check where you were from and automatically knew you were from Mass from sayng "wicked." LOL!

Tom, you are correct - however, be aware that some state cops are instructed to write tickets to out-of-towners just the same. A friend on mine with TN registered plates and TN legal tint (35%) drove to Savannah, GA for the weekend. She had a busted headlight and got pulled over. The GA state trooper wrote her a ticket for the headlight and then told her he thought her tint was too dark. He took out some devioce to measure the tint and told her it measured 32%. He wrote her a ticket. Keep in mind that this happened at around 10:00 PM and it was pitch black outside. I don't know how the tint instruments work, but I would venture to guess that the results differ with lighting conditions.

Anyhow, I told her that the ticket would not hold up in court, but for her to fight it, she would have to take at least a day off and drive back to Savannah. She paid the fines. The two tickets combined cost her over $300. Bobby state of MA is not the only one with gestapo drones masquerading as police officers.

Our state troopers are polite and professional ( from my experiences ), our local polices, specifically my own town, are absolutely horrendous...

Jesus, is this a joke or something? Because I am NOT amused... I understand to each his own but let me explain WHY you should take that off...

1.) It DOESN'T look good at all... Spoils the lines of the car
2.) It is almost certainly NOT functional. And don't try to tell me that it is because I spent 3 years perusing an Aerospace Engineering degree (if it was, WHY would you want something so disproportionate sitting on the back of your car?!!?)
3.) It is WAAAAAY too high
4.) The "arms" are WAAAAY too long
5.) It looks like ****!!

The car WITHOUT the wing on it would look GREAT! I love the wheels and the color looks amazing... At the absolute MOST, you should look at the JDM SVX wing... I hope that constructive criticism works good in getting you to remove that thing...

Looks good. I think the wing still needs more of a rounded look to "fit" the Svx. Oh well

True. And maybe a little shorter.

Hmm . . .

What would that look like?

Here's an idea:

Lord, that was hilarious! lol!

Sorry. I'm enjoying it. It looks cool. I really, really like it.

I like the short ones including the stock one also.

Peace.

Seriously, cut this **** out. This nonsense has been a topic of discussion for the better part of a month, maybe a month and a half. That's 90 days too many. You're giving people more reasons to laugh at SVX owners. Go get some chrome ASA wheels and skull windshield fluid nozzles to complete the look. You just ruined a car. That wing has no purpose whatsoever. How much did you spend on this in total?
