98-02 Accord coupes look weird w/o the wing. Keep the wing.

Try and find out if that wing helps the aerodynamics of your car or not (becuase its stock it may help but doubtful). If it helps then keep it, if not its probably robbing some power. More drag more power used.

Keep it, definitely. It does look clean either way though.

I wanted to go wingless to but couldn't find anything to cover the holes with. What did you use to plug up the holes? What did you use and where did you buy them from.

Also, wingless looks great!!!

Keep the wing. I think the 6th gen accords look great with the wing.

Keep the wing.... car just doesn't look right without it.

I'll tell ya what it looks like.... looks like you were too cheap to get the factory wing on the car when you got it.. Just my opinion....

That's the reason I kept my 240 wing.. it's a little bit classier IMO
