I need spoiler opinions please

Hi, I know that I should choose what I like best. But I would also like opinions. Right now, I have a Wings West touring spoiler. The trunk that I have right now, has a bunch of holes in it from when I took my stock spoiler off and I never got it fixed. Well, it's gotten to the point where I have to do something about it. I went and bought a used trunk lid and this one doesn't have a stock spoiler or anything on it at all. What I need your opinion on is...1)Go completely stock without any spoiler at all. 2)Buy a new stock spoiler or 3)Keep the Wings West touring spoiler. Thank you for your time!!!

My opinion: none of the above. Well, if it was going to be any of them, I would say no spoiler. Unless you have a lot of money for a new OEM replacement, finding a mint condition stock spoiler is gonna be tricky (most likely). I like something with a low profile, but always thought the stock spoiler was boring. I don't care for the WW touring spoilers, either. I think they look better on Honduhs. I like the JSP touring spoiler (even though it's JSP) because it doesn't have the curve to it and I think it looks better on the trunk, but again that's totally just my opinion.

I would choose to go with a stock spoiler IMHO. I think they give the car a sporty look without going overboard, but you are right you should choose what you like the best.

keep the wings west if it is in fact a wings west and not the other knock off thats around, it compliments the stillen kit the best.

I agree with MadMax10, the stock spoiler looks best to me.

i would stay away from the stock spoiler. i had mine replaced twice and both times it bubbled up, granted this is most likely a complication with the painting process, but still it is a pain in my a$$. i would recomend a m3 stlye spoiler, i think it would look real nice on a 3rd gen, and if i have to replace my spoiler when i get the bubble fixed, i will be going with one of these. the stock spongy spoiler sux.

I think I'll just compress some nerf and vortex footballs, paint them white and have a fixed spoiler on my max

I wonder if the maxima spoiler can be thrown 140 yards, anyone remember the vortex football ad with joe montana or someone throwing the foam football into the stands or something?

IMO...no spoiler at all and a full Stillen or WW body kit is the way to go!!!

yeah, I think I might just go with not having a spoiler at all. But who knows, I could change my mind at any minute. I have the Stillen front lip right now and the rest of the kit is going to have to wait until I have more money saved up. If I decide not keep the WW touring spoiler, then I'll probably end up selling it.

That's most likely what I'm going to do. Because I have been looking at a lot of different Maxima's and comparing the look. And I kind of like the no spoiler lool best. Thanks for your opinion.
