Default T/a spoiler idea

Tell me what you guys honestly think. I'm not sure how it will be added but I'm pretty sure it will be molded in. Now the pics are of a very good template and I will have a better one later. Also thinking of taking another 1/2 inch off of it.





Different design option

Looks like the Mecham one, but the factory spoiler is too high to pull off the look.

It was just an idea that won't happen. I appreciate your guys honesty. Unfortunatly the whole cars clear is starting to flake and I'm saving to get it repainted.

The only other spoiler idea that doesn't look completely horrendous is one that was posted here a couple of years ago...

Yea I'm not a fan of the mecham one. My main goal was to make the rear spoiler more functional. I'm a firm believer that the shape of the high rise spoiler is actually useless when creating down force. But it was just an idea that I threw up in the air and an idea that I'm no longer going to go with. The more I look at the pictures I posted the more retarded it looks so thank you guys.
