Yeah the wing is a little crazy....kinda funny when even your 10 year old twins call it the ***** enhancer. But the compliments just keep on coming. I get nothing but thumbs up in this car. Enjoying every moment of it. The new wheels are coming in today. Should have them mounted this weekend....Lok for pics soon.

Really enjoying the car and the attention it gets.... while I was working on it yesterday a neighbor woman....not bad looking by the way....asked if I needed a free hand for anything... never had a girl offer help to work on a car before...

The wheels really look great! That wing, on a blue car, makes an amazing statement.

Porsche 323 - yeah....when I first saw the "Taco" wings online I was a little worried how it would look in person. It's right up there with the Evo and STI wings in terms of "in your face"...but somehow it works on this car....at least for me anyway. I smile everytime i walk into my garage... I'm sure I will continue to do so until something major needs maintenance...
