Thinking of changing from OEM spoiler to TRD, opinions please.

[Big Mark]

I thought I'd finished with the styling for my car but am now thinking of changing the OEM spoiler for a TRD one.

 

Over summer I fitted OEM Skirts, Trial rear bumper, RMR front lip and a UK bonnet vent.

 

So what do people think. OEM or TRD?

 

Also, I have no carbon fibre on my car at all so if I went for TRD would all silver or solver sides and carbon blade be best?

 

I know someone will say no spoiler but I don't like the look of Supras with no spoiler and OEM and TRD are the only 2 I like.

The picture with the stock spoiler looks great. I am not normally a fan of silver supra's but yours looks stunning.

After chatting with you and having a good look at your motor,we parked next to each other at the falcon id say trd all silver and did you find out about abs fuse in the end?

[Hammer]

Not a fan of TRD spoiler anyway but with the balance of the kits you've put on I honestly think OEM will look best. Nice looking car.

[fastcar]

I think that looks stunning as it is to be honest

[JamieP]

Be different, stay stock.

Thanks. I'm not a fan of silver cars either but it's growing on me.

I looked under the cover of DaveR's car and he has the same as me, just one ABS relay our of 2 so I guess it's normal. I want to get the car in to Whifbitz when funds permit for a total once over so I'll mention it then.

Thanks for your input Jamie. I must try not to give in to temptation.

 

Plus I have noticed that some TRD spoilers fir better than others and my OCD would go into overdrive if I got one that was bad fit.

I did vote TRD with carbon blade but after looking at your other pictures on the link I'd say stock too. The reason is because the trial bumper & skirts "swoopyness" would flow well with the stock spoiler. I had a TRD on my previous supra and it looked awesome with the stock rear bumper, think the trial suits the stock better.

I was toying with a TRD spoiler myself, but being honest, I think the stock one looks the best - Toyota got that right out of the box

[Big Mark]

Looks like I'll be saying stock then..........

hope this helps!

Thanks Broomie, I'm trying to resist temptation.

 

For now I think I'm probably going to stick with stock, besides I have other things I want to do first.........

[listy]

I vote stock, but if you do go TRD, get a carbon blade. IMO they just look rubbish without it.

[Graham1984]

I just find stock keeps the nice natural curves of the car over a coffee table.

Nothing wrong with coffee tables/ironing boards/picnic benches yadda yadda yadda

I think I phased that wrong, I just find especially with oem skirts the original spoiler looks the best but if you had top secret skirts for example I think the Trd spoiler can look great too.

 

Have you voted for your own car yet Listy?

 

Anything is better than a Veilside or spoilerless IMO.

no problem! id stay stock too, ive had both, and the stock wing is alot lighter than the trd!

[Ross C]

Keep it stock. As already said by others, the stock spoiler suits the trial rear more than TRD. Great looking car though 199 buddies

[markssupra]

Personally I think the stock spoiler would look better on your car.

[berg]

Im gonna be different and say trd

 

Best spoiler for the supra and the only one i would ever own.

 

My opinion of course

[jazz1]

My opinion both can look great, but with trial rear there's advantages and disadvantages;

 

Stock:

 

Looks good side view angles

 

Looks rubbish front and back view

 

TRD:

 

Looks good front and rear view

 

Looks rubbish at side view.

[Sukhy]

I think it looks good with either so it just comes down to personal taste.

[Nodalmighty]

How about NO spoiler?
