Personally I think the wingless look looks better. It's also more original, and more of a sleeper, it's kind of obvious if you pull up beside an Eclipse with a 97-99 turbo wing, it's either a funny little ricer or a turbo car, but wingless, uh oh? lol. I'd say keep the wing off, I think it looks great, and the rims are big pimpin too! Looks good bro keep it like that

I say put it back on... It just looks bare without it. Plus I always liked the turbo wing. Very clean car though. Are those 3g OE wheels that have been powder coated?

You can only really go wingless if you're lowered imo. Still looks good, but I think it looks better with the wing.

I also personally like the 2g turbo wing. i would put it back on. Even with your car lowered it still looks awesome with the wing.

It looks bad without it, the rear really looks like it is missing something. If you want the sleeper look atleast put a 95-96 talon wing on the car.

Wingless is ok, but it just doesn't compliment the eclipse ass like the turbo wings do. It just looks like something is missing. When my car was in the paintshop and the wing was off I was like "Is that my car, where's my wing?" lol I say leave it on.

I was thinking that exact same thing. Something about the wing missing just doesn't flow well with the rest of the car. And I kept studying the bumper of KHill's car, like I was boring my eyes into the rear. It's definetly our DSM's ass that the wing compliments.

no contest! Wingless!


It looks so much better without the wing. The wing just looks terrible. Rices it out way too much... So how much you want for that wing?

Thanks everyone for your opinion. I was just changing it up a bit. Like I said only 4 bolts away from being put back on. Just trying something different. Plus I figured I'd post up some before and after pics so people can look and judge their decision if they ever thought about going wingless.
