I think a little lip spoiler would be all that car needs.

I, personally, never liked the SS spoiler.

I loved how the 4th Gen's had 'integrated' spoilers that fluidly merged with the rear quarter panel.

But I liked the slightly more dressed up look of it with the added lip of the Appearance Package best.

I'm anxious to see the 5th Gen with a GFX/spoiler package.

I think the 5th Gen would look nice with both a lip spoiler (not too small though) and a low profile spoiler (wing) like the 3rd Gen Firebirds (and most other cars) had(have).

The SS spoiler did "fluidly merge with the rear quarter panel. It just rose in the center instead of remaining flat.

I hated the fact that the 4th gen had an integrated spoiler that couldn't be removed with out looking like complete ass. I for one love the idea of a wingless decklid. Obviously this look couldn't be done on the 4th T/A or Camaro but it looks great on a GTO and the new mustang. Unless the 5th gen comes with a small lip spoiler that I absolutley love I am going to run a clean wingless decklid.

Wings have always been Pontiac's thing, stick with a sporty looking "duck tail" or "Lip" spoiler.

That rising in the center just looked wrong to me though. I much preferred the added 'lip spoiler' that the Sport Appearance Package had.

90% of cars look 'incomplete' without some kind of spoiler imo. Especially the Mustang.

When it comes to big wings/spoilers, I hope GM leaves it to the aftermarket or makes it a standalone dealer option. I'm not a spoiler fan, that's one of the reasons why I think the 4th Gen Camaro looks good - no big spoiler. But then again, I'm one of the (I guess) few people who like the new Bullitt Mustang - again, no spoiler, which makes it the best looking Mustang in my book. Hell, even when I bought a V6 4th Gen Camaro ten years ago, I had the dealer search out a "RS" i.e., Y87 car without the spoiler.
