yeah, the spoiler is off of a GT. I only paid $100 for the wheels w/tires... I was in desperate need of tires, and this was actually a cheaper route than buying new tires for the old honeycomb wheels..

not trying to stray off topic but is your front fender dinged or something? it looks like it has a notch in the wheel well. maybe its just the pics? just couldn't figure it out so i had to ask

edit:
o and the wheels look alright. i dont think they look bad enough to take off. but if they bother you just sell em since you only get em for $100. hard to not to make a profit

Beyond dinged. The front of the car was smashed slightly when I bought it.

about the wing uhh its gotta go but the wheels are def better than the stock 10 holes and different than what everybody else is running so that helps them out a little. just run them till the tires are gone and if you dont like them sell the wheels and buy a wheel and tire package that you like.
