Question I know I'm not the only who likes stock spoilers right?

In my case it is the LT1 Z28 spoiler, I know it came on the V6's too but seriously I feel like I'm the only like who likes this spoiler. When me and my friends talk about cars it seems changing the spoiler always comes up and the same goes on the net. As for me, well I like the low profiles look.

Stock spoiler > after market.

That is because you hang with ricers. Don't act shocked.



I love the OEM choices on the 4th gens. I was perfectly fine with leaving the stock spolier on my Z. The SS spoliers kick ***, but if I were to have added one to my car, I would have chosen the 96 SS piece. Nice slightly aggressive curves, still a lower profile without the posts.

There are a lot of choices you can add that still are tasteful IMO. The RS kit, some of the aftermarket stuff too, even the Z29 spoiler. As long as it doesn't extend over 5" upwards, it's probably okay in my book.

IMO, if you get an aftermarket hood... say one that sticks up higher (cowl, SS, etc...), the car needs something done to the rear.

well you are not alone, i myself tried to convince myself to buy a different spoiler but couldn't do it, every time i look at my car from the back i really love the factory low profile spoiler, i do love the newer ss's but it seems that our cars the lt1's look good the way they are, im not getting anything after market fo my car but i know if i had a 2000 ss for example i would definetly keep the stock spoiler on it because it looks good on an ss, but not on my 95z, so i guess im the kinda guy that likes the stock look. i reather invest my money on getting me a nice alpine cd player.

I also like my stock spoiler.
If I went with SS hood, I think I would get the SS spoiler to match.

Add some SS badgeing and the ZR1 wheels - and I could sell it as a true SS! (poke - poke)

o boy...

there arent really any aftermarket spoilers that do it for me...the ss spoiler is nice cuz it add's a lot to the car but is subtle, not tacky

and i agree if you have a aftermarket hood you almost always need a spoiler to balance it...there isnt really enough to the stock spoiler...it just kinda blends into the car and isnt noticable...

Yeah, if you have an aftermarket hood then the spoiler needs to be replaced. I think its rather boring.

Yes, I prefer stock spoilers as well. Z28 and SS spoilers are really the only ones I like on Camaro's.

Stocks spoilers only...

either the stock spoiler or SS spoiler on a non-SS.

Nothing else, thank you.

as I am sure someone has already said, quit hanging out with ricers and you'll find more people who agree with you.
