Ok, I love thw factory wangan spoiler. And there are 2 memebers I've seen that did beautiful work merging the spoiler to the car. It's half and half, it's either love it or hate it. THose are my fave but wangan would be MUCH cheaper.

to me, FCs without them look so bare and naked. It adds just the needed visual pop from the dull slant and dropoff of the rear. This is just my opinion though.

I usually like the look of the stock "wangan" spoiler on FCs. My friend just said yesterday that FCs look a lot better with a spoiler after seeing an S4 w/o a spoiler in the parking lot of our school.
But then I do like the look of no spoiler on some cars. This car being a great example:
So I guess yay for spoiler unless you can pull it off like the above pic. Just don't get a huge GT wing.

(and to the guy that says the spoilers makes the car look outdated, it's an FC the whole thing looks outdated. Moldings, flip up headlights, sharp creases, the car screams 80s)

If u are just looking for the benifics of a spoiler then get the Rear Amemiya diffuser. It will give u downforse and will be hidden, kind off anyway. I like the big wangan spoiler.. Only think im afraid of is that it will creat to much drag, not good for fuel economy.

Maybe I'm too old and newb, but what the heck is WANGAN?
The white pearl colored car is mine, and the spoiler is just a stock one.
Thanks for the props though, '87 trubo FC
FWIW, I like the no spoiler look. Just don't feel like hacking up my car to remove it.
