SS/SC Spoiler vs No Spoiler

Im at a crossroads here..



There are some steriotypes that accompany the large spoiler as well as vision deficits.

Any preferences? reasons?

i prefer the ss/sc spoiler cuz it sets the car off, a little vision problems but no biggie, i have that huge ss/sc wing and 20% window tint so imagine trying to back out of somewhere at night

I like the ss spoiler myself. It fits the car well and doesnt look ricey.

I hated it at first and was gonna get it off asap, but it REALLY grew on me, it matches the line of our car, and sets us apart from the LT and the 2.4 SS

I prefer the small spoiler to the SS/SC wing but if I had a SC I'd keep the wing on it..

Exactly how I feel. I would have NEVER even considered putting the wing on had the car not come with it, but I feel that it is what sets are cars apart, and helps people identify.

xINFINITY to what these guys just said!!!!! The stock SS/SC spoielr looks ORGASMICALLY good with the CF inserts in them as well. The wing is the ss/sc trademark, and it doesn't look as good without it to me. Doesn't look right bald or with the 2.2L or 2.4L spoiler.

2nd best spoiler, RKSport 3 piece spoiler. Hands down. If I couldn't get the SS/SC spoiler, I'd get RKSPort spoiler. Compliments the body line sof the car.

It may set it apart but IMO it still looks better spoilerless, especially lowered.

wingfree and loving it!!! I personally like the stealth look of being wingless.... I can fly below the eyes of Johnny Law w/o a second glance...I can surprise the crap out of the unknowing and I can be a little different than the factory delivered cars

whats funnier is the SC guys with the wing giving me a huge second glance wondering if it's a real SC

wingless is the only way to be. no ricers even mess with me anymore. YESS! i can't stand it when they rev their 90hp .05 liter engines at me. now i get G35s, EVOs and Mustang GTs that want a piece.

on ls/lts, i believe that the low spoiler is the only way to go. looks retarded with the big wing, and looks ugly and lame with no spoiler. however, on the ss's/ or ls w/body kit, all three can fly, but the best look is with the high spoiler, but lately i have been really realy tempted to save some money and get a cf trunk with no spoiler
