Default bye bye bulky spoiler!!!

In the process of installing the mode parfume teeny weenie itty bitty spoiler. Took off that big huge explosion spoiler today (going to be in classifieds later on tonight). Still have to weld 2 more holes and then bodywork and paint. On to pics

I can't wait to get the RMM Supercharger on also. I've been talking with JPI today and trying to get everything together to drop it off with them asap

Mine is not as big as yours but after seeing the smaller types of spoilers here I wouldn't mind ditching my own for something smaller.

looks great. i would recomend a small tte lip spoiler. but it looks awsome even with nothing. Whats with the small dot on the drivers side rear.. right above the tail light? is that from when you took it off?

I actually like the look with the explosion spoiler on. Flows with the car more so than the "hyena butt" (spoilerless).. I would have the tacked on edges of the spoiler custom molded to the body for a cleaner look.
