If its not a XR it looks way better without the spoiler...a car without the rest of the kit just looks odd.

I do like the spoiler but I'm going for a stock look, Hence going to stock height and wanting to loose the spoiler.

Most likely being sold soon or traded in. Id rather sell it on here than let the dealership wholesale it.

Well if you are thinking of trading the car in at all, it might be an idea to take the wing off and plug it up and see if you like it.

If you do, then organise a swap.
If you don't, you can always put it back on.

I used to think about taking the wing off my AU because I saw another AU wingless with a T series kit. I took my wing off and it looked terrible!

Just a thought.

The spoiler is stock though, unless you put it on.

Many dealers put spoilers on them regardless to try and flatten it out.

Id be more worried about that exhaust tip than the spoiler...you moving the car?

Exhaust tip is going in favour of the little oval tip they come factory with if i can find one that's not rusted out.

The spoiler in my eyes makes it look an xr from behind which i don't like.

Oh not selling unless an XR with the factory 289 comes along at the right price.

I have sleeper plans this car.
