Given the size and position of the wing spoiler: how are your experiences so far re rear view visibility. No probs at all or only slightly limited by the shape ? No pun intended.

But then, on the other hand, the wing probably helps reducing lights of other road users at night, or a low sitting sun during the day, from reflecting in your rear view mirror (if you don't have the self-dimming mirror option). More relaxing for your eyes.

I know that this wing is based off the MotoGP car but it has to be one of the least aesthetically pleasing spoilers I have seen.

If it hadn't been on the MotoGP car, everyone would have wrote it off as ricetastic which it still kind of is. Your car was much cleaner before, it looked like it had a flow. Now it just looks like you are trying to fit every piece that you can on. Sometimes you have to know when to call it quits....
