Thumbs down SYMS Wing for a wagon

The wing is very expensive but totally worth the look. I think they go for about 600 bux os more. Not too sure. But then you have to get it painted and it is one of the toughest thing to install. You have to keep in mind that our back windows are tampered so you can't drill holes in it or it will shatter. So i get the wing and all these different kinds of brackets for the car. But on my 97 OBS, there is no where for it to connect to except for the glass. They give you this double sided tape that works ok. The worst part about it is that you can not open the trunk because it flares on the sides and if you lift it past a certian point, then it will pop off! So if you are all about camping, bad-idea. Also, i was driving with this wing in the winter and it flew off in the median cause all the sticky stuff had worn off. So i had to re-paint it, and glue it back on with this two -part epoxy that seems to really hold well after i used 80 grit sandpaper to scratch the surface. It has been on for about two weeks and i love it (don't get me wrong)!
So this is the review of this wing:
My Exp.
500 for the wing on sale, twice painted for 100 a time. So that adds up to 700 bux and a hassel
Reasons to get it:
THE LOOK IS SWEET!!!
Reasons not to get it:
No camping, no trunk, can be a hassel, expensive for fiberglass.
Overrall i give the wing a 6. It looks great but you limit you trunk and if you use that tape they give you, it will fall off!
Thanks
