Bad

Can't say I like the look, but as long as you like it that's all that matters. Be prepared for A LOT of negative comments (doesn't help that it's on an auto)...

Uh, uh, uh. Well, I wouldn't have picket that one out. But what matters is if you like it or not. It is your car. Like Tayler said, get ready for a lot of ribbing.

Not that many people on the forum like that kinda look. Most of us here will call it a bench on the back of your 8. As long as you like it, thats all that matters, people are gonna flame you

I think its a beautiful thing! After you finish racing, you can iron your clothes on your spoiler. Wait...then, you'd need a really long extension cord.

j/p.

All in all, if you like it then you spent your money well. If you wake up one day and think its a bit over the top or realize that NO car needs a wing that large (and in charge) then mayebe you wasted your money...
2 cents.

sorry bud, but the stock spoiler is by far a better choice. That aluminum makes your beautiful car look cheap.

Come on. Be nice. He is new. At least he painted it to match and didn't leave it shinny. Maybe he could put shorter braces on it to lower it a bit.

I love the stock spoiler and if I did change it I think I would go for something a little less ....... well just a little less. But if you like it thats all that counts. It will be unique.

1. people on the forum are older people who like subtle look
2. anything bigger then the MS spoiler everyone will flame yo for having a "park bench" spoiler
3. i am not one of them, but i think it looks terrible.

why?
1. the aluminum spoilers are pure ricey (atleast you painted it)
2. you have basic stock body...
3. its so squared and the 8 is so curvey, which does not go at all
4. it like sticks straight up.. theres no angle to it or anything


basically if its bigger then a MS spoiler, it better be in CF imo.... but if you like it why the hell not!.......

all show....no go....

the wing is actually pointed "up" so it's actually creating up force instead of down force.
