Nt-5 spoiler

Does anyone has a NT-5 rear spoiler installed on theirs 8's? I liked the "APR GTC-200" but that is costly.

NT-5 looks quite similar so wanted to see what recommendations you ppl have?

One is made of ABS plastic material, and APR's are in carbon fiber.

If you like it, do it. Most here will dump on you for even asking the question (as you can see from above). I am tail less. I would think the APR would be the better of the two. However, I haven't seen either other than in pictures. An airdam will do more for you aerodynamically.

hey sood, as you can see most people here are not big fans of GT wings. I personally think they're too 'over the top' for a daily driven car.
If your car is going to be a track car, then I say do it if it makes you happy.

Also, what other mods do you have on your car? If you are on the stock body with stock wheels, the wing will look VERY out of place. Just something to consider...

Uh..., what?

On a track, you ARE going at high speeds. Those little kinks and corners, a lot of them can be taken at 70+mph if you're a newb. I know my tiny little MazdaSpeed one works at about 60mph onwards.

A big GT wing will do more than my little MazdaSpeed wing.

Only downside for a daily driver is that its hard to see out the back window. Might want to buy a smaller one so you don't get issues with cops and such.

Or buy the MazdaSpeed one, which can be put down for street driving, and up for track driving.

Could you elaborate about the airdam? What kind are you talking about?
