Your Blade spoiler some of us like me wish came on my SS, Just keep the Blade and enjoy it , looks freaking awesome on your car!!! ACS spoiler is pricey like most will say and personally i think might look better painted same color as the car, just my opinion...

Agree, that ACS spoiler is horrible.

Extreme body pieces have a way of looking "too much" as the car ages. I've done it a few times and it always ends up being something I regretted doing.....

Elegant lasts forever, like a blue blazer.

Wrap it if you want a diff look.

Or, do what i did , and sell the body color spolier , and mount a black one.

Glen e can confirm, but wont you need to fill the holes in the rear quarters if you switch?

Side pieces on with tape and cement only, no holes

However, I don't like the price, $644 for unpainted black OR add $249 for the carbon metallic black grand total = $893

For installation it says its a direct bolt on. I'm thinking I could just simply take off the existing blade spoiler and re-use the holes for the new ACS rear deck spoiler?

But it is pricey and not sure about the look of it on my car.

What do you think?

I find lip rear spoilers to be extremely unattractive

not a fan of the ACS spoiler, it has too much going on in my opinion. you cant really beat a classic ducktail spoiler. so keep that, or if you are interested in something a little more pronounced, check out the 6LE blade spoiler, which looks promising, and I'm installing as soon as it ships.

How about we just send you a free Wicker Bill style spoiler to add to your blade spoiler (giving it EXTREMELY similar styling the the ACS one) in exchange for pics?

We built it off of Glen's spoiler but then used Glen's spoiler in our plug for our taller Blade spoiler so have nothing to stick it on and take pics lol.

I'm trying to find someone with a blade looking to change it up as opposed to just buying another blade to stick it on.
