the spoiler was a complete piece of crap. it was never meant to be on a 240.

check out that rust!

i still have to clean the car but you get the idea. from a design standpoint the spoiler was obstructing our view from the car's clean lines. it always seemed like it was in the way of something.

i personally HATED that FOAM spoiler, i wanted to take it off since i got it. i'm so glad its gone now


yea ghost thanks for updating your sig, i think people were just too lazy to tell you :rolleyes:

yeah I think the stock spoiler looks like a POS...... btw ur car looks pretty clean for an up north car, not even rust by the spoiler holes...... hate to look under it thouh...

:(

sides look much nicer and cleaner now too

thanks...

yea there was rust starting to come down and take over the end of the hatch, and it was coming off. half of it was completely off and it was rattling.... it had to go.

as long as rust doesnt start coming you can keep it on and save some money, but once the rust starts coming dont let it drip beyond the hatch or you'll have some trouble.

i as well hate that spoiler. it doesn't even look like it would do anything, it just looks like an oval-eque piece of something stuck on the hatch for some reason. your car looks cleaner now...but you really need a 5-speed. :D :flash:

i'd guess they used body filler. the car looks great, i wish my cars paint looked like the that. mines not bad but the paint is so beat and it has these little parking lot type dings in the fender and behind the drivers side door.
