to spoil, or not to spoil....

so guys, my car is in the body shop and i went and took some pics... I'm stuck between a rock and hard place now that i've seen it with the spoiler off
and with it on

i think it looks like straight sex with it off, yet a bit naked.... what do you guys think? i plan on eventually changing spoilers out, maybe with a JDM kouki wing, trying to go a somewhat factory clean... so lemme know guys, i have to know by tommarow morning, to let the shop know.... I'm leaning towards removal.... save me money in the long run.... repaint, holes filled etc

LEMME KNOW!!!

love the black on black that car looks sharp and it will look even better when its all painted.
i took my wing off too because i also thought it looked straight up sex without it. but eventually i want to put the kouki wing on. on ebay i found a company from japan that sells a carbon fiber kouki wing that ive been debating wether or not getting.

off! s14s look terrible with the factory spoiler imo, especially with an aftermarket body kit. get some meat on there to balance out the aero

yeah leave it off dude, but if u still want some rear down force without a ridiculous looking wing, I kinda like the look of the roof wing with no spoiler...

Yeah, I took mine off because it made the car look more acqward... like a two door camry for some reason...

I'd say if anything, add one of those small trunk lips like the Origin lip... that looks sexy!

yeah off is straight sex...


and no!! my kit is not molded..... never buy a raceonusa kit!!! check this out for the kit thread.... with pics!!!!

https://www.s-chassis.com/forums/show-shine-4/raceonusa-kit-finnaly-arrived-44450/

spoiler stays off, and there's plans for maybe a low slung carbon fiber wing, no more than 4" tall...... i have been looking at the lip spoiler but i can't see it being 150 bucks for this little thing.... as far as the windw spoilers.... i think thats in the works.... just can't decide yet...
