Default i need a more aggresive spoiler!!

does anyone have a more aggressive wing/spoiler on their SC? i'm not talkin anything crazy like the hondas you see, definitely want more of a stock look... but i sorely need something on the rear of my black SC to make it more mean!!

certainly, with allllll of the crazy knowledgeable SC folk here i know someone can point me to a picture/link to where i can find one!

i know man... cmon talk me out of it! im THIS close to pulling the trigger haha. Ive also got to factor in the 200+ it will probably cost to have it painted black and installed. but i guess at that point....

anyway, the SC is my baby and when i bought it i knew nothing would be cheap! i've got to enjoy it to the fullest. this will be last mod though..ill tell ya that. i almost need a second job

nope no body kit mods... i swapped the stock rims for the ones you see in my avatar and added 20M front and 35MM rear spacers which i love. lowered on megans. 06 tails. got daizen CA, steering rack, and sway bar bushings sitting home waiting to be installed... being lazy. been planning on blacking out the grill and tinting the headlights matte black but wavering on that. i hate/love this site. it never ends!

very nice, i like the blue interior, i have blue in mine also. Bacardi just bought the daizen steering bushings, I wonder if they make a big difference. I just got the daizen sway bar bushings that I may try and install soon.

since you have all the other stuff done, i would say go for the spoiler. I've only really been buying performance mods for mine so far, im saving the appearance stuff for last. the spoiler will def. look awesome

I like that wing a lot. It's certainly bigger than the (too) unobtrusive factory wing. But man, you'd be into it nearly a grand by the time you buy it, ship it, paint it, and install it!

I've thought about this many times but never really looked into it. Always felt the SC430 needed a little more agressive wing back there. Not a shopping cart handle or a Porsche-like whale-tail, but just something more than the edging strip of the factory "wing".

Yup, you only live once but you don't stick with one car for your whole life

That's $736.173 USD + shipping............That's alot for just a spoiler. I want to get a lip, not sure If mine will look good with CF lip & CF spoiler

that's so not worth it. I was eyeing on that spoiler as well on ebay previously. $700+ no thanks! Not worth it.

I'm seriously thinking about ordering the Levante spoiler. It seems to be available either from ebay at a higher price or direct from Japan. It looks like Levante will ship direct to me from Japan. Except I can't read Japanese. i wish a little cheaper like around $500 to $600.

The two things I've never liked about the SC430 spoiler is that its too small and whimpy looking. And I don't like that it's curved. I think the car would look a lot better if the spoiler was straight across the top of it, bigger, taller, and stick out further in the back - much like the Levante spoiler.


Quick Reply: i need a more aggresive spoiler!!
