is the stock spoiler diff between the 04 and 05? i think 05 is smoother and not as flat and big as the 04...which looked like a ironing board.. !!

 

mine is with a spoiler and i love it

 

Haha, when I used to see coupes w/ 17's or no Brembos, I would think "wussy automatic". But w/ the 05's you can't really tell the difference anymore since the 18's and 19's are available for automatics and the brakes are the same.

 

hahaha i feel sorry for you people with the spoiler, it really ruines the lines, and looks out of place, thats just my take on it, there are cleaner spoilers out there, i think the g should have a spoiler but a very small one, thats just an ironing board, it looks really out of place and useless

 

thanks for all the replies, but truly its harder now to decide which way to go.

 

Just ignore what everyone is saying here and look at them side by side and decide which you prefer. Its your car.

 

Thanks Sun, do you have one I can see?

 

The rear spoiler is sweet. It's a must have..

 

Go 4 it !!!! I love it on the SPORTY car.

 

Does anyone have a OEM stock spoiler in black please PM.. i've decided!

I guess i'll no longer be a "winglessg". I'm looking to buy one ASAP

 

the spoilers of a Evo and STi are ironing boards, complete w/ stands. i just don't see the ironing board effect on the G. who's fkcud up imagination came up w/ this? from a carmag writeup?

 

Yes, I have seen the "ironing board" comment made in a mainstream auto mag. If you look at it, it's not hard to figure out why. I used to really like the OEM wing. Just doesn't do it for me any longer.

 

^^^but then, almost all big spoilers are flat on top like surfboards or ironing boards for so many years now, and the G's not even on a complete horizontal! why call it only now...

 

I think the thin profile, along with the way the OEM spoiler extends out on the sides is why someone slapped it with the "ironing board" description. FWIW, I do believe the author of the piece (might have even been a little blurb in the long-term test update section) was a young woman... ...who expressed that she still wanted to buy that long-term tester.

Again, I used to really like the OEM spoiler (still do, somewhat), thanks in no small part to those very traits mentioned above. But the "ironing board" description must have struck a chord for so many others to be using the same description. To each his/her own.

 

I'm planning to get mine w/o the spoiler. It looks ugly IMO, especially from profile views and 3/4 rear views. I don't agree w/ the "base model" comment. Spoilers are optional on the majority of cars. When I see 17 or 18 inch rims then I think base model. Most manufacturers with different trim levels package the car with different rims. Thats why I'm planning to go 19!
