    ROFL!! I thought for sure the caption of that picture was going to be something about having some RICE with your vegetables!

    Not that my opinion means anything, but you did ask, so I have to agree with the others. I'd dump the wing and keep the lip.

    110% agree. The stock MKIV wing is a thing of elegant beauty.

    I know I'm late to the party, but FWIW, I agree.

    I like big wings - when they're truly functional - and I think that the TRD wing accomplishes both of those factors (it continually amazes me how much actual development the OEMs actually undertake, and I'd well bet that TRD wing actually truly outperforms the stock high-wing, which itself is, for those here who are not familiar, a truly functional piece).

    The interior lip just looks out-of-place. Even if it added even more downforce, I'd really think twice about adding it, particularly for street-use, as it, to me, just clutters the area.

    If you're still fond of the lip, though, and it does add downforce, I'd consider buying it, anyway, and affixing it to a spare trunk setup, for track-days/hot-lapping and/or show, when you could also bolt-on your TRD wing. There's many Scooby owners who do things this way, as they prefer a "sleeper look" during the week, and will get into full-combat-dress only for the track.
