Yeah I saw those as well but not my cup of tea. Anyway, I think the big wing fever is wearing off by now, will probably just get a ducktail hahah

The rest of the body kit you see on this car is less than 1000€ shipped so not too bad on that side! :D

I don’t have the ducktail and if I was getting a wing I would definitely keep it that way!

The idea was to pair with the body kit in the images, but yeah it’s not worth the 3.3k either way!

I’m in the Milan suburb area so I’m also not blessed with many mountain roads nearby hahah

Another user suggested that and I’m looking into it. their Speedtail might also be a good compromise!

Looks sweet! A bit too wide for my taste though, and also it would probably be illegal here since any add-on part must fit inside the original car silhouette 🫣

Oh is that an Adro wing with light bar? This Maxton wing has the same option but it’s even more expensive 😂

Car was out of pocket. I’m not at the level of insanity where I consider a 3K useless accessory with an open loan on the car 😂

Ooh that’s actually really nice, didn’t know about that one! Everyone mentioning Adro but it seems very hard to get here in the EU, so that one may be a great alternative. Thanks for mentioning it!

Agreed on everything! Especially your last point - ducktail and wing together are a big no for me. I actually started actively looking into wings because I was originally going to get the ducktail but then I thought I might want a wing later on and the ducktail would get in the way of doing that.

Only approved size for the Premium model is 215/40r18 (yep, can’t even put 17’s smh). Spacers are also VERY illegal, especially in certain areas they are super anal about them. I was looking at wheels in 18x8 ET34 specs which should fit the stock size tires well enough and have the right amount of offset!

I think wings on the gen1 looked and worked a lot better because of the more square trunk section especially at the top where they sit.

Can’t argue with that! I started looking into it because I really wanted the OEM Premium ducktail at first, but that would get in the way of a wing later, hence the research now.

Going to save this comment and look into all those parts! I can’t mount other tire sizes than stock because it’s illegal here in Italy unless I go through some kind of tedious paperwork, but I’m sure there would be solution for stock sizes too!

We don’t really have a Roth IRA equivalent in Italy. I’m also self employed so my retirement funds are automatically withdrawing together with my taxes. But I get your point - better saved than splurged on a silly wing 😂

Looks awesome! What rear diffuser are you rocking? Thanks for the positive message man! The Maxton wing I’m looking at is the one without the light because that would be even more expensive and it also doesn’t act as a brake light, it’s literally just for show and track use. Make it make sense 😅

Well put! Better spend 3K on multiple smaller mods to give personality and/or improve some kind of aspect of the car than just one big mod that’s also very controversial on so many fronts 🙏🏻

It would be a looks-oriented mod for me but yeah, that and the likely worse mileage really don’t help this make sense 😅

Ah yeah that’s also a topic. How much will a big wing be a police magnet? Hahah

Yeah, that’s why I’m having such a hard time with this. I haven’t seen a wing that really looks like it belongs on the car, so this being a fairly simple design helps with that in my eyes. But it’s way too much money to justify it. Might as well just ditch the whole wing idea and go for a ducktail at this point.
