Can't decide next mod
 
Currently stuck between SSS Spoiler(I have the smaller one) and Swift Springs.

I assume the springs would benefit the car more performance wise, but the small spoiler kind of bothers me. At the same time so does the wheel gap.

Both would cost about the same price(the spoiler may be bit more or less depending on whatever deal I find.)

Just wondering what everyone else would choose out of the two. I've been thinking about it for the past two days and can't decide.

(One advantage of going with springs is I'd be able to order right away and maybe install by weekend as opposed to waiting for someone wanting to sell their OB Spoiler.)

For what it's worth, the car only has a HKS drop in and Aero kit.

Why do you even have the small spoiler? I'd go spoiler-less before I did small spoiler. Wheel gap has never bothered me, especially when it affects the ride.

Personally I'd get the large spoiler, then the springs.

I'd research more on the springs route. You may want to consider different struts all together.

Some of the base model X's come with the small spoiler, mine did and my first mod was upgrading to the larger wing.

Wow I had no idea some came with that small spoiler....... yuck :)

Kajii Sep 8, 2009 01:58 PM

Yeah it's BS just like not all Xs coming with HIDs. My car only came with Aero kit, no SSS... you would think a larger spoiler is included in an "Aero" kit.

get them all

damn I would go with the springs i reckon.. Im in a dilemma of taking my wing off aswell, i have the mickey mouse wing and Hate it! I want to go wingless but the damn holes !

Does the SSS wing fit into the non-SSS wing holes? For some reason I've read somewhere that it doesn't fit and might need additional drilling. Don't quote me on that, just wanted to make sure for you.

Kajii Sep 8, 2009 02:42 PM

Yeah I will need to drill an extra hole on each side, another thing I'm not too thrilled about.

Wait for the MR Touring 2010 to come out then trade trunks with them {thumbup}

I would go with the springs and take your wing off until you get the tall spoiler.

Yup same here. My first mod was the larger wing. The smaller spoiler bugged me a lot more than the wheel gap.

to me i would get coiliovers and go wingless , it would look better

I'd go with the springs, I went wingless a couple weeks ago and love it
