Question Poll: Want Opinions on my Spoiler

Okay, I have had the high rise spoiler on my car for a very long time now (about 2 yrs). I have recently decided that I don't know if I like it all that much anymore. . I was just wondering what you guys thought about the High Rise spoiler on my car? Should I keep it? Should I get rid of it? If you think I should get rid of it, which spoiler do you like?

I want honest opinions. I know a lot of guys either hate this spoiler, or love it. I just think that the High Rise spoiler needs to be accented with ground effects, and I don't think I want to spend anymore money on appearance mods b/c I plan on doing heads/cam this spring!

What do you guys think?

I personally like the Mecham, but I heard it's a crappy fit, and for that price I would want it to fit right. I don't really like the SS spoiler b/c then it would seem as if I am trying to "be" an SS.

I had the same wing you did and i got sick of it. Not really b/c i didnt like it but i guess i needed something new. There really isnt that many options to go with ya know? Its a high-riser, SS, lgmotorsports, RS the one u are reffering too

If u like the Mecham, get it then...

i personally switched to the SS just cause i thought it would be the best for me in theh long run...

Good luck

I dont' know specific spoilers, but I know I don't like larger ones. I'd put a smaller one on it. Thats my opinion.

I'm not a big fan of "appearence first, power later", I like to see people (and my self) get their car running strong before spending money on looks, because whats a killer looking car if it cant' run hard?

SS

Go SS. And if you do. Go for a Wings West SS spoiler. They are just now redisigning their spoiler for a better fit. ALL other aftermarket spoilers fit like crap. I guess Wings West is finally doing something about theirs...

High Rise Spoiler = Shopping Cart


Go for the SS.

I'm not a huge fan of that spoiler, but I don't hate it either.......I would hope that you wouldn't go with the SS spoiler as it is getting way overdone, although it does look good.

The mecham spoiler is going to have a crappy surface and is going to need to be sanded on alot to get it smooth, I've heard they do fit well, there is just an UNGODLY amount of prep work involved which = $$$$$.....unless you do it yourself

The mecham spoiler...isn't that just the 96SS spoiler? Or something like the 98+ SS spoiler without the 2 center supports? I KNOW I'm not just seeing things.
