AE92 Found spoilers for my sedan.










The Red spoiler is from an AE92 Corolla GTS Coupe.
I'm not sure what car the White spoiler came from. I found it in the ground of a junkyard.
Which one looks good?

The white one definitly fits better. the Other spoilers stands don't sit properly on your trunk.

Nah.. looks bad.. I like the GTS spoiler better.. It looks lower and more countoured to the car than the white one.

I'd ditch them both. Looks best without any stupid plastic pieces on it.

You are going to paint it to match the body either way, right?

AE92

TokyoRacer the red spoiler is not sitting properly because its standing on the mounting bolts. Do you see the cassette tape propping the spoiler up?

REN69 the white one does look a bit high. I'm going to cut the mounts a bit and see if it will look better with a lower profile(or photshop it first).

SpeedballTrix I'm planning on having my car repainted. (maybe silver or midnight blue)

Before Photoshop


After Photoshop


I'm going to buy a hacksaw and cut the mounts about an inch and see if it will work.

To be honest with you, I think its look better higher.
I never thought I'd say a spoiler looked better higher =P

If you chop it down like you have it shopped, it looks too close to the trunk.

And definately Midnight Blue

The red one matches the car better, and it will fit fine when, like foodaa said, it's not standing on the mounting bolts and a cassette tape.

The white one is a typical, cheap, JC Whitney rice-boy spoiler with a strip of very dim LEDs, so obviously aftermarket. I see them on cars all the time.

Conversely, I have seen a number of Corolla sedans with the GT-S spoiler on them, and it looks like the car came that way from the factory. Probably has to to with the way the ends curve down and match the curvature of the quarter panels perfectly, almost like it flows into the body. The white one overhangs the sides too much.

The red/orange one, fits your car design better.

id go with the red one, the design looks better and plus its sittin on the bolts and cassette so when you install it it would be just right in height. and about the paint job, def a midnight blue.
