i just realized this today as well, if you don't have anything in the front, the rear wing makes the car look super long.

remove the wing.

This is the best route to go! I plan on doing that. It also depends on the year, body kit, and color of your SC. A black 92-96 SC or a red 97+ can pull off the spoiler-less look, but a pre-97 white SC looks funny without it.

I agree. A front lip definitely helps.

My stock spoiler looks nothing like a ricer... I like it. I took it off and looked and I hated it. The spoiler just adds a good touch to the back. Love mine

That looks good. I like both of the stock spoilers on our cars. The aftermarket ones look pretty ugly though.

No trunk spoiler, but a roof spoiler gets my vote.

I have a 95, and I removed my factory spoiler. It looked terrible IMO.
Granted, the newer 97+ spoilers look good and I would probably leave that on because patching and painting the holes on the trunk lid was a biotch. But honestly, spolierless looks great IMO, especially when the car is lowered some and has a decent set of wheels.

When I buy a car all I can do s think how to mod it. Now imo the sc has a very classy look. But with the forever long hood I think it needs more in the rear. I personally have a wise sport wing on mine and think it looks amazing! My buddy has a soarer with the stock sc400 wing and roof wing I think it looks so beautiful. But he is always askin to get my wing, lol
