I have to agree with the majority of the guys on here. The drifter wing/GT wing is cool if it serves a purpose other than posing. Other wise I personally think lip wings are pimp

I think a GT wing is only acceptable if you're packing some serious horsepower, and even then, it needs to flow with the lines of the car. If you don't track your car (or take banked overpasses at 125+) then you probably don't need that wing and therefore it's rice. If you drive the Vertex Soarer, then bravo sir, keep up the good work.

Question

I'm considering getting the Behrman spoiler or the Veilside spoiler in the attached image. My car is a dd and has the 97+ on it right now. You guys think i should keep the 97+ or get one of the 2 spoilers listed(leaning toward the Veilside) input is appreciated thanks

^Keep the stock one.

SCs look super riced out with GT wings unless they're FULLY built drift machines. The ducktail style wings look pretty awful also.

the factory spoilers (mainly the 92-96 spoiler) are one of the only ones I would do. Most of the aftermarket spoilers haven't impressed me but there are some clean ones out there. The aluminum wings/spoilers on the SC takes away from the SC's cleanliness some. I would suggest not getting an aluminum one unless you "need" it for racing purposes only. It's tacky and "ricey."

It looks decent but I would pass on it. Not crazy about the sides but it's still pretty clean. My favorite aftermarket spoiler would have to be the ultra-rare Wilder spoiler.

I like it clean. But the factory spoiler isn't bad. I just like the clean lines no spoiler. Just my opinion and opinions are like.....

I went ahead and ordered the Veilside try something new. Personally i prefer spoiler less but i have $$ to spend on specifically a spoiler why not get a different one

I like 97+ tails without a spoiler the best.
