That is the question.

Okay, so I'm trying to decide weather I like 'verts with the 92-93 spoiler on it. I'm debating weather to put one on mine or not to. I'll post up some pics later but if you have pics to back up your reasoning please post. I just can't decide.

You're talking about the 'special edition' spoiler. And I would say put one on. I think the lx verts look better with them than without.

Spoilers FTL.

...unless we're talking about ducktail spoilers, which don't really count, because nobody makes them for Foxes, anymore.

You could always just find another decklid cheap and put a wing on it. Have one with and one without a spoiler. Then you could swap them when u get the urge

A custom one would look badass if done right.

Any of the stockers I have seen don't look right.

Something along the lines of the S281 wings from the SN95 cars but to suit the back of a fox would look perfect I think. Would actually enhance the look of a coupe or vert!

I think it should be spoilerless. I think the notch/vert is all about clean/unobstructed lines and a spoiler ruins it for me. But honestly it's your car, YOU need to decide!

The problem with the lx verts in my mind, are that they AREN'T clean/unobstructed like the smooth roofline on a notch. The saleen 'verts look good to me (I like the styling anyway) because the spoiler/ground effects kind of remove your eye from the convertible top that really doesn't look all that attractive, and sort of sticks out like a sore thumb on foxes. A small, simple spoiler like those on the SE's does a good job of distracting you from the roof of the car.

Not knocking the verts guys, just my opinion.
