Roof spoiler or no roof spoiler?
Debating wether to get a roof spoiler for my IS but my plans are limited due to funds.
How many of you guys are rocking a roof spoiler on your car?
Also how many don't like it/need it?

just my opinion, i think roof spoilers are better suit for coupes or large vip style sedans than our 2IS.

I like the look of them. Just haven't bought one yet. I will someday though. Look great, IMO.

I got one. Picked it up for $90 shipped off amazon last year. Get one if u have a trunk spoiler. It'll look odd if u don't have a trunk spoiler but a roof spoiler. They go for 90-100 so great mod for the price.

Roof spoilers look great on the car, subtle addition.

I like the look of a roof and trunk spoiler combo but I also like the profile with neither

I think a roof spoiler looks great. Only reason why I haven't gotten one is because people seem to have them stolen a lot.

If you use 3M Heavy Duty tape...it'll make it difficult to steal. Most thieves will give up because it takes too long to remove using this tape...lol.

+1 on the roof spoiler
You can find one for less than a $100. Installation is a breeze too

What do you mean "how many people don't need it"?
Are roof spoilers supposed to serve a purpose??
