what the heck!

am i the only person on this forum that thinks the spoilers on the skylines are crap?! how on earth can you possibly consider putting them on when they are that high, (and yes i'm speaking of the two bodykit ones), i had to cut both of mine down, to at least half of their original height before i would even consider placing them on the car... you should all try this, all it takes is a sharp pair of scissors to cut those tabs down a little, it looks so much better...

Personally I like the spoilers except the silver one.

I cut mine WAY DOWN. The look fake and horrible up that high.
I even had a problem with how high the stock one was. I cut all mine down far enough that there is about a dime's worth of space between the body and the bottom edge of the wing.
I also had to angle the base so that it wasn't leaning in the wrong direction.

I do have to admit that I put the silver one from the skyline kit, at full height on my RSX- It's taller than the roof. I just thought it would be funny.

I agree I think that the stock one looks the best on the kit and i think that it would flow nicely with all the kits

Once again, I agree with you Cricket. They are way to tall for the size of the bodys. I also would like to see some pics of yours with the mod fins that you have made...
