It was meant for it. the 86 has it. Plus, it's your car. Do with it what you want.

The Grand AM Spoiler is raised up and doesn't even go past the trunk lid.. totally different...

I love the way the OEM Spoiler looks. I put it on my FR-S. I don't understand all the hate about it, personally I think it's the best one out there currently, compliments the sharp lines of the car. After I installed mine it totally made a difference at the way I looked at the car. I don't really dig just a small curve or lip off the trunk.

What ever you decide to put on the car is meant for it.

You gotta change your mentality. That's like saying that I can't buy a FR-S/BRZ because it has FR-S/BRZ/86 wheels?

The wing comes standard on the BRZ and 86 outside of the states and it is probably just a matter of time before Scion offers it as an accessory.

I favor the STI lip

thermobox · 08-15-2012, 12:07 PM

me to.

I like everything about the TRD except the wing. It is way too much for a painted wing. If I were to go with something that huge it would be a GT wing.

Neziah · 08-15-2012, 12:19 PM

I'll be adding a rear spoiler to my FR-S eventually, probably one of the lip versions.

eriktherod · 08-15-2012, 03:13 PM

That GT wing pic only needs the rear fog light flashing to make it complete.

Is that a single exhaust tip? Interesting.

Yeah it's ugly for sure, Not a fan of it at all. I would LOVE to see how the fr-s looks with a very simple aluminum spoiler, something not too big but enough to be somewhat distinct and off the drunk. The NUR wing looks great, but it is just a bit too big for my taste. That said, the duckbill does looks pretty sweet, I could see myself rocking that one day.

there is no reason to have a spoiler with this car in its stock form. all it's going to do is make it harder to wash/dry/clay/wax the trunk lid, and add weight to the car.
