Not sure, One part of me really likes it, and the other part thinks it's way over done...What do you all think?

if you get it in carbon fiber it would be awesome.

Looks OK, as long as you have a kit on your car. I saw someone the other day with it, and no body kit, didn't look right to me. I'm on this one,

I like that GTR style wing, and was considering getting one too, but only once kitted. I would like it better without the "step" in the middle of the wing. I think the one I will wind up getting is actually for a 3 series BMW, but look alot like that one minus the middle brace.

...guys, am kinda wondering, will they really give any kind of performance effect considering how massive/heavy is that thing...first of all just to let you know i have an 01 Galant with stock wing, and am not condeming cars with massive wings...

...does it have something to do with the "downforce" whatever term is.... :?:
...no offense to those already them installed, am just asking, so dont flame me up.... https://www.thegalantcenter.org/style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif

it's not THAT heavy, you'll loose like 0.05 off your quarter mile, which you can't even tell because your times would be so far apart from run to run. basically: no, doesn't affect performance at all. as far as downforce, the only wings that provide downforce are aluminum (metal) wings that were made specifically for the car. and they only affect RWD cars because rear down force on a FWD car is pretty pointless. about 0.5% of the cars you see with aluminum wings actually use them effeciently. actually, most people have probably never seen an efficient metal wing except for at car shows.

Downforce is always good...but we are not going 140mph, so it dont matter!

I thought about getting that wing at one time, but I liked the stock one much more. There was a black Galant with an Erebuni kit on here like a year or more ago that had that wing from Erebuni. It looked good with the kit, but without a kit it wouldn't look right.

Any rear wing on a FWD car is pretty much meant more for stability at high speeds rather than downforce.
