alot of folks dislike the spoiler but its your personal choice in the end. without looks clean, with looks sporty.

without. With it looks like a Camry. Or lots of folks love the JP 3Pieceor Lip spoiler. Thats what i have. Even new cars nowadays dont use those big bulky spoiler, they use the small lip spoilers.

With the spoiler of course. Its a RWD sports car and it evens out the lines. Really like those OP wheels.

You would want to weld up the holes. Bondo will crack and you will regreat it later. Make sure to do the proper metale treatment before paiting it. Unless you want rust.
