Default RKSport wings for the Camaro - opinions and photos wanted

I'm thinking about purchasing an aftermarket wing for my Camaro. Maybe something different than an SS wing, like for instance the RKSport wings. Their super-tall "Super Wing" looks a little too "ricer" and "extreme" to me. The less tall "Sport Wing" looks better IMO, that's the one I could be interested in. Unfortunately there aren't many photos on their site, so it's hard to make an opinion on what they really look like. The view from the sides looks good to me, but I doubt if it looks as good from the rear. Does anyone have photos?

Also: what about quality for those wings? What's the fit like? Are they likely to wobble at high speed?

the smaller style wing is the same as the RS kit, they may not have changed the pic on their page, but do NOT let that fool you, it IS the RS kit spoiler.

The quality of RKsport spoilers is poor. I've had to have 2 sent back because the fiberglass began cracking after only a day. thats right, 2 times. and their customer service is absolutely pathetic.

Unless you really have your heart set on them, i'd go somewhere else.

Hes talking about the sport wing... not the RS style. Not many cars can pull that wing off. you better have a cowl hood and GFX to balance the car out.

Its your car though. If you like it go for it.

Thanks for the link - just what I needed picture-wise.

I didn't realize the super-tall Super Wing actually sits on top of the stock wing. Two wings! I don't like this at all.

I like the looks of the Sport Wing better, from some angles more than others. I plan to buy a Sunoco hood, so that would balance the car out.

I'm still undecided, especially since the reports of poor built quality are not encouraging.

Still, thanks everyone for your input
