Like Nikon said, that's not stock. They are more popular with the reg CTS. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/2003-...Q5fAccessories

The stock and Specter Werks are both flush and mold with the third brake light.

I have that same spoiler as pictured above.

I got it off of Ebay almost 4.5 years ago (shipped and color-matched painted) for like $135.00. It was a killer deal and it has held up great against the elements, although my car does not sit outside very often.

I prefer the flush, even though i'm slightly biased...I really hated cleaning/waxing under the spoiler on my camaro.

That black car look SICK!!! Love the fatty's!!

Im a fan of no spoiler myself but the spectre werx looks nice. The spoiler on that black car only looks good because its lowered with fat wheels and it all fits together. On a stock V, that spoiler would look a little too big and stand out too much IMO.

I have a Stealth Gray one like the one in the top picture (red car) and tweeter's black car I'd be willing to sell if the someone or the OP has a SG colored V. It's brand new, doesn't have a scratch on it and includes all the mounting hardware. I bought it when I first bought the car because it's a fairly hard to find color and I got good price on it (at least, IMO) with the intentions of installing it. I never have gotten around to installing and don't think I'm going to. I kinda like the stock (non-spoler) look myself.

Spoilerless FTW!

With a cowl hood up front and fatty's out back, no spoiler looks ****!

Aftermarket.

Looks like the spectre works to me. I dont think any V's came stock with a spoiler period.

It was an option when you ordered/bought the car from the dealer. But at something crazy like $700 I told my salesman no thanks.

Really? Everyone i know that has one said they bought it aftermarket. I suppose thats why.

I dont see how the dealer could even charge $700 for that spoiler or worse... who would pay that much for it.

It looks good on some cars but i still think spoilerless looks best. A clean spoiler free tail end on these cars looks more aggressive to me especially all murdered out... but maybe im a little biased... lol

You guys are crazy, j/k.

I have the opposite opinion. I thought the back of the car was way to square and boring for my tastes, so the spoiler and a lingenfelter CAI were the first two mods I ever did to my car.

Are you running the factory spoiler or the spectre works?
