    Default '08 Lancer, with or without spoiler

    When I bought my car they didn't have any spoilers available as they were taken for all the GT-S being rolled out. They just called me and let me know it has come in, but am not sure if I want to get anymore

    I like the look but am afraid that it will become old quickly.

    so I have turned to you, the esteemed criticizers, for input.

    thanks




    with spoiler (mine is graphite grey, with exhaust sort of like this)







    Without spoiler, same color, better exhaust

    If its included in the price, take it and maybe sell it.
    If it costs extra... I doubt I would get it.

    they gave me the reduction on the cost of the car to cover it but i still have to pay up front.

    honestly I want to know if it will look stupid if I fix up the car without a spoiler, because I just dont know if it looks to much like a base sedan. I personally would prefer to not get it but just can't decide on the rear

    Well, it IS a base sedan isn't it? Why try to hide that?

    mine is the middle model haha

    No i am getting stuff for it slowly and am fixing it up but want to know what everyone else thinks looks better. I just think the rear is missing something without it.

    I was driving on crowchild last week when one of these cars passed me (with a sexy chick driving it), it was black with the spoiler and it really balanced everything out and looked really good, i sped up to keep up with it and circled around it to check it out, but my exit was close so i had to do it quick.

    My personal opinion would be to get the spoiler, it looks really good on those cars so i would really recommend it.

    good luck.

    Hmm well I think you should leave it off. Even the GTS shouldn't have it IMO. You wouldn't want to be mistaken for an Evo X heh.

    i think it looks better with it on personally. Looks sorta plain without one. And also OEM is always better than any rice you pick up if you decide that you want one later

    I think it looks better with the spoiler too... no offense but it kinda looks boring without it, it really does balance it out better.

    does the '08 still only have like 100hp??? if so, leave the spoiler off, you dont want to be accidentally seen for a 'performance' car.

    please don't get the spoiler. I'm embarrased for people when I see their 150horse lancer and are trying to look like an evo.

    right, I keep forgetting, they don't have the RA model yet... I know with the previous models it was 150 hp for base and oz, and 162 for RA
