Nismo rear wing removal ? hmm

Why not just move over and let the guy pass?

I put Newtons on the loud pedal, sped up to 108 mph to get the sedan off me. He effected a hard pass on the right, blew by me. His door paint looked odd so I glanced over and saw "Knox County Sheriff" on the door. He passed me, got in front, and blipped his wig-wags before continuing on.

I ended up getting the Zoom Monaco inside rear mirror and Craft Square sides so I had better visuals. But I damn near sold the wing before I decided instead to spend $1000 to overcome the issue..

Had a line of cars on my right. Normally I do shift lanes when someone's dogging me, and for exactly that reason.

Speaking of big black phallus’.. you haven’t lived until the biggest, ugliest, blackest NJ state trooper has you laying face down on the shoulder of the NJ Turnpike with his Glock pointed at the back of your head, screaming “DO YOU KNOW HOW FAST YOU WERE GOING”??

No Sir! My speedometer stops at 85 MPH.

He actually laughed at that one!

Lately i just point the rear view mirror just down enough that headlights don't beam into my eyes and i can lower my head and see what's going on behind me.

My butt is just the right size to fit in the nismo seat. I drove a EVO with aftermarket Ricaro seats, and my bone structure is about 4 inches too wide. literally barely feel the bottom of the seats.

I would suggest the 2015+ nismo rear spoiler if you still wanted to keep something there. It adds enough to elevate the looks of the car, without obstructing view in any way
