The Talon thumbnail would look amazing. I'm sure someone has pics of it to share.

Stick with the 2gb gst/x wing and i doubt you'll be cruising above 150mph for a very long period of time.

You are correct, but here is what people don't really understand. The aero wings that people purchase and put on their cars only help reduce drag once the car has reached a certain speed. Meaning you have to be going about 120 before you see any real added benefit, and even then it is a small one.

To me, its the Turbo Wing off of a 2gb, or nothing at all.

I like that drag wing myself. I am also considering getting that one or a different cb wing. Opinions from others can help in the aid of making a decision but you need to do what you want to do. So what if people don't like the wing, it's your car, you drive it, and it's a representation of who you are (so to speak). I say do it. Now, let the flaming begin.
