Lots of spoilers are held by 3m tape. My 5axis is. Suks for whoever is behind me when it flys off lol

I think the issue is commitment. Seeing as they might not be 100% decided on which spoiler they want, or if they ever wanted to change in the future. The GT86/BRZ and Scion OEM spoilers are okay because the drill holes are on the top and get covered by most other spoilers. The TRD drills in from the back of the trunk. So it may be difficult to cover up if the owner chooses to go a different route in the future.

Actually Ive been meaning to ask you something...Those wheels are 18" right? And the drop is around 1"? I love my current ride height but id love to reduce wheel gap. So how are you finding daily driving? Im impressed my car has not scraped once since i got it, especially in places my RSX-s with .8" drop scraped like a whore. Do you have similar experience with your setup (not scraping or getting dangerously close to hitting parking bump stops)?

That fin...mnnfff (dont really like beatsonic's, kinda fat). Any reception loss?

questions keep popping up

Tada said he designed the 86 with a lot of clearance to begin with. I crudely measured almost 6.5" stock clearance up front before I bought the car.

supra2nv · 09-04-2013, 04:29 PM

Mine has decent clearance thenagain I'm picky where I drive and I drive thru dips etc as I would on my former nsx so I'm already mindful of scraping.

Love the color
