    Then you will have holes in the boot where you will most likely put tape over it and leave it...
    I like the look cars have when they have the spoiler on it. Looks so much better IMO.
    If you want it off, remove it, it's not too hard. You will most likely need to put a globe in the light on your parcel shelf so that works.

    I'm in 2 minds about it. I've seen some VY/Zs without wings and they look awesome but I've seen some that look horrid. Check out some pictures and make up your own mind. The other option is to put a boot lip spoiler on it. Zeussy has a Senator wing on his car and it looks awesome.

    I took mine off for this reason. Well not to perve lol, but to be able to see better.

    i like the look of no wings on VY/VZ's i probably prefer a wing on a VT/VX. Without them i find them a little too round on the rear.

    Normally I say no spoiler... but on the VY/VZ SS I actually prefer the spoiler on.... It finishes off the body kit, not too big and not too small
