But hey, if it's just a bit of a look that you're after, then yes, smaller is less "ricey" and just cleaner IMO.

I couldnt agree more, why add additional weight when it doesnt serve a purpose? If I got a spoiler, it would be one that served an actual purpose and had adjustable settings to tune the downforce.

Wing it. it DOES serve a purpose= keeping it from ulgy.

I thought the same but I thought I would get more feedback without the poll.

Thanks for your feedback.

thats your personal opinion, but IMHO, a spoiler without purpose is ugly. To each their own.

I went back and forth with this one also. In the end, NO spoiler/wing.

And I do say, I really prefer the subtle lines WITHOUT one.

And the hatch has such a sweet bump to it, which get's kind of hidden when the rear spoiler is added.

also, I might end up with less tickets in the long run, because it's a bit more stealthy!
