Ok guys, I've decided to get the shine street body kit. Now my car comes with the factory spoiler. With this kit, im sure everyone knows, that the spoilers need to be change. I was wondering how is the factory spoiler removed? If it is a hassle, would my car, 03 GS, looke good i with just the front rear lips, sides, and fender flares? thanks for your help!!

i dont see a problem with our stock spoilers. i have no intentions on replacing mine. but i have seen a couple of eclipses with no spoiler and they look alright. im guessing that it is bolted to the rear hatch but im not sure.

I was thinking last night of wether or not I would remove my factory spoiler. I saw a picture of the SS kit w/fender flares w/factory spoiler and it looked fine to me so I might go with that instead.

The spoiler is held onto the hatch by four bolts - look like 10mm to me. But I think the stock spoiler is distinctive, and lets other folks lknow that you have a unique automobile. The aftermarket ones look tacky, but I'm not sure if you want increased functionality, or what. Since I've only had mine up to 115, I haven't experienced any problem with aerodynamics with the stock spoiler. Seems to keep it nailed to the road pretty well.

Actually, the stock spoiler does do a good job of keeping the rear down during hi speed cornering. But as with any stock component, upgrades are available.

And I think this spoiler looks the best.

High speed cornering...? Unless you corner at very high speeds, import spoilers are all about looks really.

I know that I do go fast around corners and I appreciate the downforce.

ur car will look good w/ the stock spoiler, and if you wanted to do anything i'd suggest removing the spoiler entirely, personally i think it blocks the rear view wayyy too much and it'll give u the kitted RS sleepr look
