The Roof and Trunk Spoiler are both RD Sport. You would think they were supposed to compliment each other, right? I think there's just a lot going on in the rear now. Almost too much. We'll see...

So I finally got around to installing my roof spoiler and rear diffuser. They had been sitting in my garage all winter. I'm still on the fence about the roof spoiler. From certain angles I like it and from others, I'm not sold. I love the rear diffuser though.
I finally put my 20's back on for the Spring. I had the wheels completely refinished and rebuilt last month. They took apart the wheels into it's individual 3 pieces (barrels, lips, centers). They cleaned and retrued all the barrels, acid washed and polished all the rivets, machine polished all the lips and repainted all the centers. I love having these wheels back on the car, but I forgot what a pain in butt it is to keep them clean.
The last, and final mod to this car, will be the Hartge M5 Front Splitter.
All parts and mods for this car were purchased from Trinity Autosports (Joe, member r1racer). Thank you Joe...and Nerwyll.
Anyway, here are the pix. Enjoy.

lines of the roof spoiler seem to contrast not compliment the trunk spoiler IMO...

Yep. I agree. Ughh... So much for, "Less is More". Hahahaha!
I like the roof spoiler but with that wing it looks like RD missed the mark
I would keep the spoiler on the roof and pair it with the M5 spoiler

You know, it's funny. I told Tony (EuroCarFan) last year that his car would look so much better without the roof spoiler and his car looks like crap because of it (I was teasing with the latter comment, of course ). Fast forward to this year and I go and install it on my car too. I think I was right. I should have listened to myself.

She looks great as usual C. I like the Hartge diffuser. Time to get the Hartge front splitter for that M5!
Yeah, take rip roof spoiler off --- and send it to me
Sometimes I wish I would've jumped on the RDSport special early this year.

I know man. I'm not too sure either. It might be a bit much... I'm going to give it a month or so. If it gets to the point where I just can't deal with it, I'll rip it off and throw it out.
