I am not feeling it. IMO the spoiler is one of thee most iconic parts of a Scooby.

Amen to that brother!

It's like taking the bonnet scoop off - WTF? Without the spoiler and scoop it's just not an Impreza IMHO.

It suits the blue but not the silver mate.

I think it looks good without a spoiler but only when it's really low.

That black one looks like two different cars Photoshopped together, the front's agressive, the back's not. I don't get it.

NOTE TO ALL:

If you de-spoiler, make sure the car is dropped a decent amount!!!

My Old one, more of a winter look than a full de-spolier for summer the 18's would go back on with a bit more slamage

I've got a Spec C carbon fibre wing as well:


I do like it, and it probably actually does something, aerodynamically speaking, but it is definitely "in your face" and I think, on balance, I prefer the stealth/sleeper look

It is lowered - it's the Litchfield/Powerstation "type 25" setup with ASTs.

Thanks for the feedback guys.

Its good to see that we all have differing ideas of what makes our cars look good.

At least we get to see quite a diverse range of scoobs.

We'd be a boring bunch if they all looked the same.

Mine has an FMIC, so the scoop's redundant
