thought it was well balanced without it.
but with it, it just made it look better & more complete.

I really like the OEM spoiler. I have the Mazda speed front bumper and I plan on getting the Mazda speed spoiler as well. I really like that one a lot..

I too love this. I got the euro spec lip spoiler when the lip spoiler wasn't available in the states. Damn the series 2's for coming with the lip spoiler!

Wow, this thread is crazy. Such a subjective area!!! For me everything boils down to personal preference. My came with the spoiler, but no body kit - which I believe was there but removed by the previous owner prior trading in

Anyway, like many have stated, I like the OEM stuff but not the 757 wings, lol

I agree. The Mazdaspeed spoiler looks great too though.

I'm trying to hunt down a set of the side flares to complete the GT look. Anyone parting out a red GT?

Just FYI the GT doesn't necessarily mean side flares + spoiler - all of those accessories were options, even for the GT model.

IMO

MS Wing > OEM spoiler > lip spoiler > naked trunk
