Celica Forums General Discussion Exterior Stock spoiler, does it create any downforce?

Hello everyone,

I've had my 2002 Celica GT for about a year now and all this time I've wondered if the spoiler is an asthetic element or if it can actually generate down force in a functionally useful way.

I have seen some Celicas without the spoiler and they have cleaner look to me. If I removed mine would handling be affected in any way?

Also does anyone know how much the bone stock gen7 celica spoiler weighs? I am a big fan of how well these cars handle at higher speeds and would not want to diminish those characteristics.

Thanks

nope not at all.. im about to remove mine too. it is for sure a cleaner look
