Actually on this car it does do something, its a rally car, it takes turns and accelerates fast, plus its AWD so its pushing air down on the ass end keeping it from sliding.

Civis with wings like that are gay FWD cars + big spoilers = ghey

Damn. Really? That must mean that either someone here is lying or that different decals add different amounts of power. (Example: Large NOS decals may add 100hp, while small NOS decals only add 15-30.)

Speaking of NOS. I saw a Jeep Grand Cherokee with 2 decals in the rear window and a big ass exhaust tip and couldn't help but laugh.

It all depnds really, if you buy a spoiler designed properly for your car, and if your car has the power to take advantage of it. The truth is most just casue a negative drag like effect. a 91 GSR (type r conversion) Integra @ my school had one, the previous owner who was a honda/ Acura enthusiast had it on for a reason...... a 195hp + light car without the proper spoiler made the car more unpredictable, The newer owner who took it off becasue he hated "rice" made a huge mistake. He flipped the car 4 days later.

That looks sooo nice.

This lad from college was 20 and his parents got him a Evo VI Tommi Makinen Edition - http://www.personal.psu.edu/users/s/u/s ... VO6655.htm

His parents own a local theme park so are like billionaires.
