well id keep that spoiler or get another one. i dont really like the wingless look. to me it just looks like something is missing. but thats just my opinion.

I would lose the wing. Personally, I don't like wings at all, especially the huge aluminum ones that make a car look utterly ridiculous. I have seen cars that are just bad ass, but then I see a pointless shopping cart wing and it just kills it. Also, I'm w/EZ, our cars look so much cooler without them.

go with a wing that only attaches to the hatch, this way it won't be a lot of welding/repainting/$$$.

I would keep a spoiler. They help even out the whole sports car appearance. Cars need a front, sides, top, back and spoiler. It just looks..... complete? Thats why I dont like convertibles, you lose so much of the car's overall shape.

But yeah, I think a spoiler, no matter which one, helps even out the car and give a sporty look. Also, people do so much to put spoilers on, from buying it to painting and mounting. You'd be spending money to take it off and shave the holes. Paying money to LOSE something from the car, not gain. I mean, if you didnt have a spoiler in the first place, I bet youd want one then.....

I like the stock turbo spoiler but with your car so modified, I would say no wing. Those big wings just make me lose respect for a car because of how ridiculous and non-functional it is, especially for a FWD.

i dont talk shit that i dont back up. so lets start there. i will email the old pics to someone that can post them up for me. the car is totaly gonna be different than the pics. the lights are already shaved and the gas is relocated. the 20s will stay the same. but i am repainting the car so i can pull off the spoiler not a big problem.
someone email me at widebodyeclipse@hotmail.com so i can forward my pics. not too computer literte or id do it myself/
oh yeah keep the negative shit to yourself especially if you cant back it up.
take care all
