Big a$$ spoiler

Hey, I have question for you all. What do you think of a STI spoiler for a 5.5 gen maxima? Spare me the lectures on how it is "so rice". I think that if its done right, it may look pretty clean and nice. Thoughts?

No, I do not think it would look good. The STi has a boxy look to it and the spoiler also has a boxy kind of look to it. I do not think it would pair with the curves of the Maxima.

Why don't you get 10K blue HIDs and Autozone side vents while you're at it?

No, I don't have any side vents...

here re is a picture that gave me the idea. I don't like how this one sits behind the trunk, where as the STi spoilers sit up flush and and are wider than the trunk too.

The 5.5 gens have a perfectly fitted spoiler that does compliment the car, my opinion is stay with what works on the Max or go with no spoiler has many of the guys have done ... anything else simply does not work

I have the stock spoiler and I think it's kind of plain and frankly, I want something different. If not the STi spoiler, I would like to see some other options. I know there has to be SOMETHING out there!

I have seen a few body kit spoilers for the 5th gen and they all just look like they don't belong. I honestly hope to see the day that a big wing sits pretty on our cars

Basically everyone on the internet will think it looks like **** and everyone in real life will think it looks like ****. But do it for you. Do it because you love it.

Just buy another OEM spoiler and mount it on top of your existing spoiler.
