I like both. My sons Bobtail is less noticeable depend what angle you look from. I have an angled drive the the spoiler does help when reversing.

Agree, love the little lip and bobtail spoilers.

Also really like the T3 kit spoilers.

Old thread I know, personally I am not a spoiler fan but I had to get another bootlid. It came off a futura with a factory spoiler that was damaged. I took it off. I don't want 4 holes in my boot. My question is do all factory Au falcons have the holes for the spoiler in the same place eg futura spoilers, xr's etc?

Thanks
