Default Rocket Bunny Style Rear Wing??

So I just got my SC a few weeks ago, and its a 97 so I already have a 'kit' so to speak. I'm not a huge fan of actual aftermarket kits so I don't plan on putting one on (other than perhaps a front lip).

Anywhoo. I love the lines of the SC, but the one thing that doesn't do it for me 100% is the roundness of the trunk. now I have a small factory wing on it since its 97, but I think something bigger and more vertical would be better.

I know wings like this one do sort of what I'm thinking, but the angle is too low (or high?).

I'm wondering if there is anything like this rocket bunny wing for our cars, I mean pretty much exactly like this-- one that goes almost straight up, and wraps down to the bottom of the trunk.

Do you think a generic one like this one would be hard to retro-fit/ mod for an SC?

Any input is appreciated. Thanks

Well, to each his own I guess. The wise one is sort of close to what I'm talking about, but still, the angle and the way it wraps around on to the rear fenders is what bugs me.

The signature by evolution is pretty damn close, but the side pieces are a bit much. Oddly enough, there is a guy actually selling a whole kit with that wing on it here locally-- apparently super expensive stuff from Japan, or at least thats what he said. I asked how much he would let the wing go for... and it wasn't cheap haha.

I absolutely love Rocket Bunny/ Tra Kyoto 6666 stuff (I'm trying to built my SC as a mix between their style and RWB-- no easy task), but I don't think I'll find exactly what I want, but maybe a modified Wisesports one would work. I'll stay on the hunt. Any more input is of course welcomed.

Not if you're gonna do that, you don't. Out of place, much? I don't support it, but the Bomex wing...... sans the sides if it hanging over, has the rear lift.

I sold my Zees wing and ordered one. After ordering it for $600 I was refunded the money and told they are discontinued. Now all I see on the Memoryfab website is wheels so maybe they just got out of the other stuff and didnt want to hassle with importing it for me

idk about you guys but i've always been a fan of the bomex wing. i say get one of those. i plan on it as soon as i get a full kit (front/rear bumper and skirts) not a big fan of bomex's skirts or bumpers
