it doesn't look right without a spoiler on any classic, mid level looks the best. the occasional newage doesn't look to bad without one but i couldn't take it off if i had a newer car.

I toyed with the idea for a while, and whilst I think it looks good from some angles on a classic, it looks horrible from others.

I'd like to see a classic with a small lip spoiler like the BMW's sometimes have.

no spoiler looks great on New Age too (IMHO) - emphasises the scoop on side profile. who cares about the function of a spoiler unless you are doing 110 around bends?

My point exactly. They are only there to keep the back end down at speed. Took mine on a track day with and without a spoiler and didnt notice a bit of difference. And going without saves weight too

Got to admit that on the right car it does look good IMO. I think spoilerless suits the newage more though

Not really a fan of classics without, however Bugs and Blobs without are mega cool (provided they have the low stance and wide wheels to go with it!)

wrx287 I'm thinking of de-scooping mine too as already have the front mount!! I'm already skirtless, hockeystickless and splitterless

Dont like it on classic. Some newages look good but only if its been lowered.

No scoop + no spoiler= less wind resistance and a little bit quicker

They just look like something is missing when they have no spoiler, its not for me, mid level looks best on the classic.

My initial reaction was a straight no, hate it. But looking at these two, I'm not sure now.
It's just one more option and variety is the spice of life.
