The stock turbo spoiler only comes in 1 version that I'm aware of, you can even order a OEM one from this site for $156.

Don't stare too hard at the Supra style wings or you'll turn into salt.

Yeah there is only the hign wing on the coupes and the low wing on the gst spyder. They dont have the brake light in them at least not on the coupe, and yes it is only one piece. If you are interested in something similar, look at the wings west three piece high wing for the eclipse. It looks nice and is a little wider then the stock turbo wing yet it doesnt look ricey (any more then the stock wing at least).

W1kk3d your right that the low spoiler is on all of the spyders, but the RS, GS coupe also have that same spoiler. And your correct when saying that the GS can get the basket style spoiler when special ordered. See 1997 the basket style was only aviable on the turbo coupe models. Then in 1998 Mitsubishi decided to make the "sports value package", which basically makes the GS model look identical to a turbo model. It kinda makes me mad that they did that, because the basket style was suppose to be for the turbo model only. I guess they thought it would help sale more cars.
The difference between the Spyder (GS/GST) and the coupe 3 piece spoiler, is that the brake light is not on the spoiler itself, but built into the trunk lid (as u can tell from w1kk3d's pic). I believe the reason for this was since the first year the spyders was made, the GS did not come with a spoiler stock, and there's really nowhere to mount a led in the tiny back window...

It doesn't make me mad but its kind of annoying when you see the big wing on the back and try to race him. Then you see the OZ wheels to find out that its a GS. No offense N/A owners.

I am going to change my wing soon. I was thinking the stock turbo wing or go for the APR GT-1 Aluminum wing to be different. I think the aluminum wings look pretty sweet!

I like the aluminum wings but only if they aren't too high off the trunk.

i like the apr wings but look at the "drag style spoiler". it's about half way down. real low and sleek. should look sweet on either a 1g or 2g.

Downazzdsm..thanks for the comments, get the wing..it gets mad looks
boosted, the wing is 55 inches across, its a good length, goes right across the entire car but doesn't stick out much, i included a back pic of my car to show you, to get the holes filled you'll have to go to a body shop because they have to weld a piece metal over the hole and then paint it, there are cheaper ways to do it, but this way looks the best, should cost about $200. installing it wasn't easy, you have to drill 16 holes! took me a while to do this! you'll be better off getting the body shop to put it on for you, unless you're confident in drilling. \
you guys think i should keep the spoiler silver or paint it to match the car? been thinking about this for a while.
