I think you are confused, taste is subjective... I assumed people would ignore the fact that this car sees the track and that the wing has a purpose, and make comments like the guy who said the car was going to take off if I didn't keep an eye on it. I came to this conclusion because of the number of people who have made these kind of comments about how beat up my car is, ignoring the fact that it's a track car.
Regardless, I'm amazed by the number of people who are saying they like it.

Regardless, I will admit that if I saw your SC on the street, my first thought would be something negative about the wing, but then after looking it over, I would probably get the picture. However on a track day, I think the styling would probably strike me as downright sick! So to sum it up on a Street only car, the wing would= rice, but on a car that see's track time, I can definitely appreciate the GT wing.
on painting the wheels gold idea.

I like your car alot. But I'm not feeling the wing. Even for a track car, it's still for looks. Those big wings are just for show on a drift car. You not reaching the speed to make it functional.
I'm liking the seat though. That should make a big difference weight wise and better control.

I'm not confused but sounds like you are.
I was simply trying to say that people have the right to not like someone else's choices. That isn't hating.
Taste is subjective but there are other factors. If the wing has a clear purpose that justifies choosing it. Looks need not matter. If it's a track car don't be concerned with what others think about it's looks.

I can kind of see where ICE350 was going, but I don't think he knew your particular situation with people "hating" on your SC for it's "form" and missing the fact that it "functions". Lol. I believe he was more refering to situations like when people don't care for cars like Cambersc's, and 20 members attack them, calling them a "Hater" for having a different taste in modding.

on painting the wheels gold idea.This car will probably only see 1-2 trackdays a month, and will be street driven between then, but I kinda like how ridiculous a slammed car with a gt wing looks rolling down the street.
No, I just didn't have money to do the things I wanted.

Lots of miss information in this thread, but that wing would not be functional in drift or in auto cross, and mainly serves as an aesthetic piece.
Nonetheless the car looks good, its nice to see these cars being driven how they're supposed to.

The SC poops on the IS. The SC is brimming with character. Wing looks right. Perfect size. Nothing worse than a wing that is too narrow. The risers are in the perfect position too.
What trunk spoiler is that?
The only thing I dont like is the interior (not much you can do about it without gutting or spending stupid amounts of loot on it) and the CR Kai's. Give the SC the love it deserves and put some viscious wheels on it. IS is good as is and a perfect daily.
