Spoiler or now spoiler?

Okay so I was wondering what ppl think about an oem spoiler or no spoiler on an e36 m3. What looks better? Personally I love them either way. You can make a whole new look with it. Let me know what you think...

i've always been partial to a spoiler myself. it seems to break up the rear a little bit. but not having a spoiler does make it look a little lower and streamline. either way, it's an M3 and who couldn't like that? only the oem looking molded ones. everytime i see an aluminum wing on a street car, i just want to slap the person driving it. if i had to make a choice though, i'd say spoiler.

I think a rear spoiler looks especially good on an m, or a 3 series with an m3 front spoiler, I think it kind of evens out the low front bumper/spoiler having the rear trunk spoiler.

I agree, anything but an oem spoiler completely ruins the car for me. I've always like the rear spoilers too. I guess there's just a couple of angles without one that look pretty sick

Spoiler, definitely. I had a 95 M3 without a spoiler and always thought it didn't look good unless the sunroof was open. I think 92318is is right, it evens out the look of the front spoiler.

I personally love the look of the spoiler.it really sets the car off. with out the spoiler on the other hand the car really is more of a sleeper.
