Default CR lip without wing?

Would the CR lip give any positive or negative changes to the car without the wing in the back?

dunno how much force it generates, but if you dont have any downforce on the rear, once could infer that the rear would get lighter at high speeds and possibly shift around a bit, if anything id get a small wing, or the CR wing, because its a sexy combo!

I took my CR wing off here recently and the back end is slightly more loose but not bad. I was able to go 5 mph faster in the same stretch of road, 145 vs. 150. For me, it was worth taking off. Looks much cleaner.

CR lip without a CR or real spoiler, just looks silly. Just like having an Amuse, C-west bumper ect does in the same scenario.

if you're driving legally on the street, then you won't notice a difference.

i personally think the cr lip with no wing makes the car look too front-heavy from a side profile. I generally don't run my cr lip without a wing.

looks dumb without it and you might feel a difference only at higher speeds

CR lip with no wing is perfectly fine, the wings is what throws it off unless you're using it for its purpose
