its heavy, id stay without it. and they look stupid with the 3rd brake light piece in the rear window unless you plan to chop it off.

Does it look cool- no... does it do anything- no...
nay- whats the point?
If you wanna spend your money on something, but something that does something for ya.

ja, unless you're going to go 300+mph in your d17, the widdle wing wont do n e thing.
But you could argue, "the red light on the wing protects me from rear ends!"
and I would say yup, but so do the brake lights.

Mine started without one and it was added later. I saw the car before and after, and I like the looks a lot more with it. I know it doesn't do anything performance wise but add weight, but I think it makes the lines of the car flow much better, and the trunk not look so huge.

Well since everyone is saying no and I'm sitting here thinking ya, then I say go for it.
...and for all you nay sayers who go "well the spoiler doesn't do anything, whine whine", I say YES IT DOES... When my gf doesn't close the trunk properly and it opens up while driving, the spoiler will actually close it for me if I drive fast enough, so suck on that, LOL. Get a spoiler today and prevent persuing cops from seeing your contraband. That $hit's expensive and you don't want the wind to blow it all out of your trunk.

Lol. I dont get why people are against it. I think it looks clean with an OEM spoiler. Heck, get it, and if you dont like it, I'm sure there are tons of black em2's that would do a simple trunk swap so you dont have two random holes

your car looks like a beetle from behind
personally for me I think the only spoiler that looks clean is the tsunami roof + trunk lid thing that sits flush and doesn't block your rear view.
