Think I'll go ahead with it. If I don't like it, I have the spoiler that's on the car to put back on...

I say try getting rid of them.... It's something different for a t/a spoiler, which other than two or three other options, not much has been done to the *** end of a t/a in many many years. We had the iroc spoiler from slp, plus mecham had one if I remember correctly, but not much else.

i wouldnt use that logic, considering companies make "ss" spoilers without the center posts - they work fine.


looks better WITHOUT the center posts

Yeah but they were made of foam rubber material.

I say go for it. I liked the look of the 3rd gen rear spoiler.

I would say without the supports. If it cracks for some reason then it should be simple to swap the one with supports back on it. I like it without!
