You're right it is all just opinions, except for the HID lights. They are just better for seeing at night!

I talked my parents into getting the RS package on their 2LT just for the HIDs. At their age they need all the light they can get when driving at night.

not sure if yall have noticed this, but the crevasse in the spoiler goes all the way through on the majority of the mid-section of said spoiler... for a reason... trunk pretty damn flat, a spoiler like the one in the RS package on that flat trunk would mean nice puddles of water build up on the deck lid, therefore the crevasse is to let water pass through :p

I guess we're mostly spoiled...

KeepItGreasey · 10-21-2010, 04:31 PM

i hate the leaves that get stuck under there

i hate the paint chipping

i hate that the spoiler came loose several times, and the decklid has been painted several times

Wingsfan · 10-21-2010, 05:40 PM

I know what you mean, always picking leaves out.

Bonanza7 · 10-21-2010, 08:28 PM

No. When you have a car with slits and other areas to catch leaves, you have to expect it.

TaylorRyanSS · 10-21-2010, 09:05 PM

No... I love my spoiler

Mine does not have that drainage slot underneath.

J/K.

Just pick the leaves out dude.

Shadowshawn · 10-21-2010, 11:44 PM

hmmm haven't had any problems like that here but maybe thats because I avoid parking under trees for obvious reasons

Maro99 · 10-22-2010, 12:01 AM

I dont have the factory spoiler, I have seibons ST trunklid with built in spoiler... So I have no problems with leaves but there is no place for water to drain, so after a rainy night I come out to a pool 1 to 2 inches deep on my trunklid

.. Other than that I love it though.

My girlfriend says the same thing. About her third gen, I mean.

Sincerely, this is one of the annoying points on the car... The vinyl might work, but I'd imagine it would yellow over time and potentially catch more crap under there anyway. Maybe some kind of a clear sealant (silicone?) But then the water won't pass through the spoiler as stated earlier... blah.

Do those of you with A/M spoilers find that water pools on the deck-lid?
