Default Wing or No Wing???

I have this carbon fiber wing on my 99 accord and I'm having mixed feelings about it. Half the people who comment on my car like it and half hate it. I just wanted to get you guys opinions on what I should do. Leave it or take it off? -I painted over one off the pics to give you an idea of how it woud look both ways-

Off. If you really want a wing/spoiler, go with something that looks like it belongs to the overall design of the car instead of something that was obviously tacked on.

Dude leave it on... that wing makes ur car even better.... matches your hood great... taking it off would be a big mistake and i personally think that body kit is too aggressive to not have SOME kind of wing... if i were u i would be more worried about making your tint 5% to match ur CF and ur wheels... nice motegi rims BTW... check out my ride in post "my updated baby" we have alot of the same tastes i believe... have u put on that turbo yet???

It definately stands out. I like something a little more subtle. But it still looks good.

Thanks for all your opinions and compliments! I'm gonna try to find some shorter legs for the wing so it doesn't sit so high. If anyone knows of any sites that carry these legs please let me know.

I agree with this part of his statement. However, I do think that the wing you have on there is a little big. Im not a fan of big wings though. Really it all comes down to what you think of it, youre the one who has to live with it.
