Sorry if this has been done before but could those with rear spoilers on their Elises please post some pics?

Im considering having one fitted but am unsure as to whether it will look "right" or not?

the nices are the discreet ones IMO, for a road car, S1, then 111S with raisers or S160 style looks good

for S2, then the newer SC model spoiler is similar

pics of them all on www.eliseparts.com

Seems a bit pointless to me. The Elise already has quite a sharp trailing edge so a spoiler isn't going to do a great deal other than add weight and drag; and look a bit odd.

Each to their own though.

yeah, the models that have them seem to be just to differentiate them from the regular models

mind you, I remember reading something about the small spoilers helping with reduce lift a bit ...nothing that most of us mere mortals would notice though I guess wink

Agreed, spent the money on a front splitter instead.
