Interesting.. I can't figure out if I like it or not. I personally wouldn't ever get one but it looks pretty good.

And about Rear wing on a front drive car. Um where the drive wheels are is not important. A functional rear wing puts downforce on the rear of the car at higher speeds giving it both traction for acceleration and or stability in corners. Taking away the light floating feel at higher speeds

How would putting downforce on the rear of a front wheel drive car give traction for acceleration? You'd be applying a force PAST the rear wheels which would result in a moment on the chassis that would tend to lift the front wheels which are driving (accelerating the car.) I highly doubt that any of the aftermarket 'ricer' wings would be capable of producing any decent amount of downforce anyways, so it's pretty much a moot point.

I wish someone would totally revamp the 69=72 hood, the whole trucks quite rounded, and then theres that square and too long hood, it's the only part of theses trucks I wish was different
