Spoiler: Sporty
No Spolier: Slick

LOL.. Even better get some velcro glued to the wing so you can have a removable one :D

Depends on what wing it is but most importantly it's up to you whether you like it with or without a wing.

It's like asking people what your favorite color should be..

Nah not really, I've always had a thing for GT wings though.

And if you get the right one it does, eg:

Following this, I think if the boot lid was slightly lipped in some way, even just a small lip, it would be a no brainer, dewinged would look tops :thumleft:
