Well .. let`s see how I feel next week! The ride is more quite ad it feels stable at high speed(did a quick 180Kph+++? , clock too small!! yesterday on a lonely stretch of road)

Sometimes I like the wing , sometimes I can compare it with a shopping trollye.
The Scooby guys are pissed off!!so maybe because of that I will keep it!
Cheers

Hey Trix

Long time, No chat.
Seriously dude, Loose the wing.
Your bakkie will look cleaner without it, but if you like is, keep it.

i believe if it shocks the mind the first time you see it its most likely not a good thing, you shouldnt have to get used to the wing.

but its just my opinion.

Hi Thanks Guys! Let` see how it turns out, at least the wing is removable and will only leave four small holes that can be plugged up with neat stainless caps if I want to remove it. I must admit it will take me some time to get used to it as I have already had a scare on a few occcasions about the "other white car"ehind me, only to frealize that it is the wing. I also had a few upset "scooby" drivers as well who thinks it degrades their car`s image. My nephiew drives a scooby and he is also not too happy about this little 14 that keeps up with him on the 1/4 mile.
Who knows what one will do next if you get bored? That`s why us men have toys.

so is the wing staying on the car? personally i just reckon it would look so much cleaner without a wing but it's your car.

Agree, dont like any of the wings that I have seen on any utes. I think that if someone made a small lip on the end of one of these hard covers it would look good, but would have to be done right.

I think it looks GREAT!

another view

And with the bad aero of a pickup, it might even help. Mythbusters had a show last year, where the best fuel economy turned out to be with tailgate off. Worst was with tailgate down.
