    Spoiler or not ?

    I bought the OEM LED spoiler for my car a while back and since then I have been contemplating if I should put it on or not. I definately like the rear end of the car the most ( ) especially the edges where the spoiler will sit. What do you guys think? So far, I am leaning towards not putting it on but we'll see..........

    Here are some pics:

    I like it, it follows the body lines nicely and adds a nice "sporty" touch. Btw, nice choice on the color.

      Don't you think it takes away from the 'clean' look? Look at the pics in my sig and image it with a spoiler.


      Btw, If I end up putting it on, it'll definately get painted!

        it looks good. really there are some spoilers with an LED centerpost which look a little too blocky. the "V" centre post looks MINT!!

        i like my "aero" spoiler. (see sig)
        When you turn your car on... does it return the favor?

          I say go for it. I like the look of it, not to big, its just rite and gives the back end something. Personally I've always thought the back of our cars is rather bland and the center piece taillight just doesn't help any.
          I found one in a trunk at the junkyard last week. I didn't grab it but Im contemplating going back. It was missing the led though.

            I say go fotr it also. It follows the lines of the car, its OEM, and it would not block half of your rear view.

                  i love that harbor color.. looks nice, however, personally, i think your car would look AWESOME with a 92 rear tail light conversion (93 or 94 isn't much different, right?). and with the spoiler, it just adds something to look at. i mean, i have an LX.. but i have no sunroof... i have no spoiler, it blows. even wil had his sunroof put in aftermarket. i think ALL of the first gens should have come stock with the spoiler, stronger power windows, better power locks, sunroof, and oem rims.. but this is not a world of equals.. simply put. at anyrate, i'd say go for it and throw the spoiler on, might take a tricky method to mount and drill the holes with out fubaring something, but hey, it's worth a shot and will look REAL nice.. especially with them white rims

                      Harbor Blue Metallic is a damn nice color, I agree. It looks like everyone voted for the spoiler to go on. I will probably end up putting it on and will take care of the scuffs marks on the back bumper while I am painting everything. Those marks have been on the bumper long before I got the car and it's about time I get rid of them. I have also thought about a tail light conversion and I might try it although I always liked the '90-'91 tail lights better. We'll see............. Thanks to everyone for their input and although it might take a while, I'll let you know when the spoiler is on!
