Have both...

It really depends on how the car is setup. On a stock car I like the wing, but at the same time I like the wingless look on a kitted car.

WING it!! I don't have a 1st gen SC, but if I did I would DEFINITELY put a wing on. One of the first things I'd do in fact. Without the wing the car looks incomplete to me. Just my opinion.

I personally prefer wingless, but with a wing it still looks nice.

I would say if you already have a wing, then keep it.

If you don't have a wing, then don't worry.


Either one looks good!!!!

Go wingless depending on the color of your car and if it's lowered. I like the wingless look on the pre-96 SC's, but it also depends on the color. You could try getting an extra trunk without a spoiler so you can switch them out whenever you want.

This is a good example of a wingless SC! That looks awesome! Sometimes they look incomplete, but yours definitely looks better without it. Black SC's can definitely pull it off!

Another good choice. It is even better in carbon fiber.

I think i've had all 3

A wingless SC,

a 97+ with a pre 97 wing

and a 97+ with a 97 wing

i honestly couldn't tell you which one i liked best, but i'd probably say 97 exterior with pre 97 spoiler is my fav.

wingless is cool though IMO, if you don't have a wing just leave it wingless..



i loved my teal SC without a wing.
