Default Spoilerless or not?

Right then, im not too sure whether to keep my current spoiler or swap it for a version 5 or 6 type, or just go spoilerless..

What do you think guys?

If someone could add a version 5/6 spoiler with photoshop, that would help me loads.

I think it looks weird without the spoiler.

A version 5 or 6 STI would look better in my opinion.

Doesnt look right without a spoiler, looks like someone has just nicked it! V6 would finish it off a treat. Just my opinion..............

It would be no less an Impreza for not having an over sized spoiler. Imprezas were originally all about being a wolf in sheep's clothing after all and not a council estate mobile in a fake fur coat.

My favourite of all spoilers for the Impreza is the classic mid level spoiler. Lip spoilers also look good IMO. Having said that, your car is hardly subtle so I am not sure either of these looks would suit to be honest.

It looks half done without a spoiler, just doesn't suit the 2-door shape.

In my opinion the best spoiler for a classic is





Suits the lines of the car perfect.

I have thought about going ver5/6 but my car isnt a ver5/6 plus like the fact that my spoiler doesnt atract lots of attention.
