Default With or without rear roof visor?

Bought my HIC one but I dont know if I should keep it on. I just mocked it up with electric tape lol.
Whats your opinion?

i'd say with, but try taking of the spoiler and just have the rear view visor. In my opinion that looks the best! but very nice car! lookin' sexy!

Roof spoilers are just not my style, but then again I've kept my 92 SC400 purely OEM since purchasing it new in 1991.

Without looks cleaner, i dont get why people put these things on to begin with. What fad are your guys following anyways? I doubt its funtional at all, I always read about these getting stolen.

I also agree with Calitri. Really diggin' the GT500 wheels though. What are the specs on these? And what tires you running?

Like regular trunk spoilers it doesn't look bad, but I prefer not to have one.

Yeahh same here. Im still deciding lol.
Specs on the gt500s are 18x9.5+45 and tires are bf goodrich 215/40/18. Running a 20mm spacer in the rear. Weak fitment but im happy with it.

I have one as well as a rear spoiler. I like it just because it's a little different.
