    Glad the tip worked out! I think a wing is a great addition to any Festiva. When I had my first Festiva the wings were really scarce, new ones were unheard of and people paid over $200 for a wing. Then out of some warehouse come the motherload and they aren't as hard to get or as expensive!

          Two wings definitely flap better than one! You won't be so off balance.

            Not sure if I'm talking about the same "wing" part, but my neighbor brought me a wing that supposedly came off the liftback of a junkyard Festy. (I hope to seek out that junker to see what else I can grab today.)

            Of course the wing terribly sunbleached but in otherwise good shape. Festy GGK looks awesome already, so I don't need it just for looks.

            But, my question is, will it do anything for me for gas mileage? We've talked about how Festies have the aerodynamics of a brick, but if it will help the MPG, then I'll get it mounted ASAP. (and PDQ )

            Feedback?

              I seriously doubt if it will increase mileage ,just add stability at incredible high speeds and looks. :lol:

                or at most it will probably keep all that dirt off your rear window.

                  Hey, I never thought of that. Without a windshield wiper or rear defroster (in snowy territory), there may be some mild benefit. Disappointing about not helping the aerodynamics, though. [/quote]
