Guess i will throw my two cents in as well.
Troy, no question the stock wing looks good, but IMO it's been done before (and will probably be done again ahem,...) and your car is unique and super tweeked, so my recommendation would be to go with the wing you already had on there and tweek it like madcurl suggested.

The best looking option would be to use the OE wing, add 2" to the width, LOWER the wing 1.5" and move it back 3". Photoshop anyone? |

It is probably just me, but lower makes it look like a dog with its tail stuck between its legs, afraid of the world. If you mean you hate the ricer wings that stick up 2 feet, I agree, they look silly. I'm talking a wing like Proud One. It is very tastefully done and looks good. And the idea of having several to choose from depending on your mood that day is great if you can afford it. I bet he can.

Stay tuned, Flying out to Archie's this week to make the final decision: to wing or not to wing? or maybe something totally new........
But for now how about a pic of the union when she arrived at Archie’s 13 months ago.

How about chopping that antenna? It looks like it's taller than the body from the bottom of the skirt to the roofline.

Thanks, you guys are great!!

Independent of how you feel about raised wings, a chop top has about 4 inches of rear window to look through and the stock spoiler will be right in the middle of that. Raising it 3 inches, (for a total of 5 inches) is the only way to be able to see out the back, (short of removing the spoiler alltogether). Given that raising it performs a valuable function, I would not call that rice.

Agreed, my chop lost its spoiler, but is about to gain a Camero spoiler.
