Not bad, I just prefer the lower profile spoilers.

Because it's pointless to put a spoiler on the rear of a front wheel drive car. The whole idea of a spoiler is to create downforce on the car, usually over the drivewheels. But if the car is front wheel drive, what good does it do to put a spoiler on the trunk except for looks? It has no purpose.

By the way, that is the same design as the spoiler used on the Mitusbishi EVO.

I'm not very strong in english unfortunately...but I'll try to explain. Have you ever watched rally? There are a lot of FWD cars with big spoilers. Because FWD cars need downforce too, air under the car creates the same force as under the RWD car. Every car needs stability on high speed, even front wheel drive one. And the angle of this wing is very small.

Yes, that is the same design as the spoiler used on the Mitusbishi EVO. But not a copy.

when are you going to be driving the car like a Rally car? (especially an Accent) in reality, everyday driving holds no functional prupose for a spoiler, only for asthetics... and asthetically, that huge spolier is hideous and screams "ricer".. (sorry, just my opinion)

Whats the problem with big spoilers? There are tons of features on your car that you don't use to its full potential ... if the owner likes the look, then thats good enough reason. Not everything has to be functional. There's the emotional aspect of owning a car and liking its ricer-look!
