    Spoilers - ???

    I'd like to get some opinions on spoilers, I'd really like to see where everyone stands for spoilers and front wheel drive vehicles.

    I'm just curious.

    pretty useless since nobody drives above 80mph regularly (lets hope not) :shutup: but I think you'd probably get more downforce from the added weight than from the spoiler deflecting airflow most of the time.

    actually on the functional side they add stability at high speeds. it won't hurt to increase grip on the rear wheels with downforce to maintain control.

    Yeah-your spoiler does look nice, except I wouldn't have the center brace in the middle. But it is custom, so props to you :D

    Good seeing where people stand. I'm glad to see the world is slowly starting to drift out of the "bigger = better" phase for spoilers. There was just something about seeing a stock Supra spoiler bolted to a tall Eclipse spoiler that just made me feel: :sad:

    eh, for most people, and for most of us here, oddly enough, they're gonna be useless performance wise....like alot of us 93-97's struggle to get to 100 or 110...even then, i dont think it would help out much....at 100mph, id hope youre only going straight and plus ur fwd...the nascar's and F1 cars need it from flippin in the air cuz their goin like ridiculously fast....id go with a lip spoiler personally....spoilers to me are just cosmetic...
