Wow I had no idea you had to drill the body, i agree f that, and thats why i was hesitant about getting the wing ot the trunk lid spoiler because i dont know if i want to drill it.
Thanks for shedding light on the subject.

i would have to say no on the side strakes because of the price and from what i understand about the installation you have to drill to install. so you might be stuck with them even if you dont want them.

i would say yes to the trunk spoiler though. i think it looks great. the only thing stopping me from getting one is the price.

Side strakes are completely useless. Just go for the rear wing.

well if you take on the sides there will be a hole the size of a dime a little smaller that you can clearly see from the outside of the car

they're both pretty useless to me. i doubt the side strakes and oem spoiler create any additional downforce. Its all about the oem look, and it's up to you if you wanna pay the price for the oem look.
