That is a tough decision! When it's between that kind of spoiler and none at all I would leave the spoiler out, thats just my taste.

no dought the top version is what you should aim for... No Dought

1. also look at the two pics next to each other.... first off, which one do your eyes generally flow to?
-top was my answer
2. Which looks less busy? (***-end)
-top was my answer, reason--the 98 lights, and the wing are both horizontial.. take those away and you get a classy smooth ***, that really in my opinion, have in turn made the focus the entire car , putting emphasis* on the wheels and generally make a cleaner ride.

I'm wingless now. I was thinking about keeping the car that way but I do want to put a roof spoiler and I'm not sure if it will look better with both spoilers or with just the roof spoiler by itself.

If my car didn't come with one that would have been the first thing I put on. I don't like the GS without one - for those who have one. Just personal taste.

When I first saw the GS back in '98 I couldn't image buying one w/o the rear spoiler. Now I prefer the small Sport Design/TTE lip trunk spoiler or no spoiler at all.

If your spoiler was not dealer installed and you remove it, you won't have a third brake light.
