Grill in the summer? Should be nice and warm once the sun beats down on it all day. I personally haven't had the car long enough to try this however

I love my wing. I pet it, and rub it, and hug it, and wax it, and tell it it's ok if people laugh at it, they're just jealous.

My wing perfectly blocks the police roof lights, so when I have about a dozen of them chasing me, I'm totally oblivious. It holds up in court too! "Sorry, sir, my gigantic wing prevented me from realizing that I was being 'escorted' home by your finest enforcers..."

Truthfully, I think that it balances out the aggressive front end styling.

If you get rid of your wing, well I woldn't, I have read that it does keep the car more stable, but the problem is, most people most drive the way you really need to, to take advantage of the wings performance. I would leave it on, just because that is how your car came. Its there for a reason, so keep it on. Weather you can feel the difference or not, its part of your car. Just my ten cents.........Jeff

Performace without the wing is NOTICABLE, try some lance changes without it a 80++++MPH and you will see, seriously it is everybit as functional as outragiously huge hehe.

I didn't know before I bought my car, but carbon fiber attracts police and honduh boys. I found out real quick, the EVO wing is a cop magnet.

Bookshelf...

I've found my 'bookcase' wing to be very useful for keeping reference materials handy.
