Rear Stock Spoiler Question

I've got a 92 GSX with the factory Spoiler on. I've worked on a 92 eclipse without one on, and there's a noticable weight difference between the two. Anyone have some numbers on the weight difference between the two of them? Or more importanly, how much the spoiler, and both side pieces weight?

Or is the weight difference for the rear wiper blade, arm and mechanism. If that's the case, i may switch over to the 1.8. I've never used the rear wiper.

Re: Rear Stock Spoiler Question

The perceived weight difference is probably from the condition of the struts. The wing center piece can't even weigh 2 lbs. The wiper weighs a bit, but not much.

Re: Rear Stock Spoiler Question

The wiper assy probly weighs around 5-10 pounds + the washer resivoir its a pretty good weight reduction to remove it expecialy for FWD's
