Hey guys,

should I remove my stock S14 spoiler and just not run one ?



So it would look kinda like this

from the title I thought you were asking if you should keep your 240 or not...

But, I like the 240 without the wing but the stock ones looks alright on there

i thought the same thing anand did. i think wingless only goes good when youre dropped, rims, and exhaust. with the way your car looks now, i think it would be too plain looking. just take it off and see if you like it. its only four bolts and takes 2 mins to take off.

More of a pain to fill the holes. Stock spoiler looks good keep it, unless you get a CF trunk lid or something.

So i took it off, well i dont know , im kinda torn.... looks good but you know it doesnt..... nice thing is i got the spoiler off and cleaned the seals, boy were they dirty, i suspect they could cause some leaks. So something positive came out of it.

i think the stock spoiler completes the look of the rear. i don't know, to me it just looks kind of bare with nothing there. looks wierd to me..

keep it. the holes it leaves in the trunk are not worth the no-wing look.~Sam

I love the no wing S13 hatch look, my past 2 240's haven't had one.

I say do what you like obviously - just remember that you gotta fill the holes and get some touch up paint to make it look perfect.

I'd say keep it.

Patching holes is a pain anyway, if you want to run wing-less, just go pick up a spare stock trunk from someone who's parting their car out and paint to match.

That way you can switch whenever you want. That's what I was going to do with my WRX.

a stock s14 needs the spoiler to keep looking sporty i think. if its low/nice wheels/FMIC it can pull off no spoiler.

please no flames this is an opinion

What color is your car? It looks to gray in those B&W pics to be black... I'm guessing red? If it's red I'll post some pics of my car (spoilerless) from the same angle. If you wanna go without it, I'll buy it from you.

Looks good either way. I'd say to keep it just to save you from filling up the holes... unless it leaks already :P

I'll buy the wing off of you if you decide to sell... Don't have much money though I'll give you what I can.

I'd say keep the wing! it looks too plain without it and taking it off only leaves those dang holes

I would keep the wing there. I personally like S14s with OEM wings or K's wings.

But each to his own

I was gonna buy ZULU's wing if it were red. Or, I'll buy any wing that's red. If yours is black, I'm gonna have to paint it. In that case, I'm going with a K's wing.

What ever happened to ZULU, I really want to see what color his car is.
