Ive accually grown to really like my spoiler, it gives it an agressive look i think, but i also agree that an ss spoiler would look good, i just dont feel the price is worth the change.

no keep your spoiler you have now, really works alot for the car...the SS ones are way to common. really makes your car stand out, look aggressive. and the tips add a little to that i think .....food for thought.

Really cleans up the rear. I think it looks good with them off.

I think it looks much cleaner with them off. Even though they are nice tips they kind of stick out and look like they dont belong.
On camaros i'd have to say no tips looks much better becaue they didn't make a provision on the bumper like ta's or even mustangs. It flows way better how it is. BTW badass car man.

Looks great with them off..where is the exhaust ending now?...i can't even see pipes near the back. I want to take my tips off so bad. And that spoiler is awesome...keep it. :edit:.. Just read where you have the tips removed..good thinking of painting the area black

Leave them off. The rear flows better without them.

They look good off, but beware that if your cutout is closed that hot exhaust is blowing right on your rear bumper and it will eventually mess up your paint. With that said your cutout is open most of the time so it is less likely to happen in your case.

I currently still have them off since I posted this, I believe I'm going to leave them off and keep the tips in case i want to put them back on for a rainy day, or whe i just want a change, but i really like the clean look.

Off. I'm in the same boat but I ran any tips it either be CME, Borla or stk tips. I got a thing for the stk Z28 tips it just goes w/ the car. I've got a GMMG and got rid of the oval tips as they looked horrible IMO and left it w/ no tips. Yo can barely see them but it does leave markings on the bumper. So I'll be dumping the GMMG and getting a Mufflex 4" w/ spintech or magnaflow muffler & single hideaway tip.
