Agreed, mine will be gone one day. I am a big fan of the high sport, but not sure I would ever go to the trouble/expense of doing the swap.

Mine came with the Hi-Sport package so I can't comment on cost... I do however beleive that the ground effects look awsome and gives the car a lower stance look... If I didn't have it, I'd definately be looking for it...

agree with both, it adds a lower/meaner look, which i like, but i was content with the reg. side skirts on my 02. Actually find myself wondering if i could put the high sports from the 6th gen on my 06. not much of a difference from the 6th gen. high sport skirts to the 7th gen ss skirts, but every time I see a good front bumper shot of an 05 HS in silver, i kinda wish i had the older style.

--also the quality (and look) of aftermarket are LACKIN! imo

--06/07 ss spoiler is a combination of the surfboard and nascar spoiler and looks amazing!!

Welp, im going completely against the grain here.

I LOVE my surfboard spoiler.

And, when i bought my car, it was wrecked, had no front bumper cover, rear bumper cover and when of the HS rocker mouldings was damaged.

So when i fixed her up, it was about 1/4 the cost to use the normal SS parts.

So i did the opposite swap, my car was orignally equipped with the HS stuff, and i put the normal SS stuff, with no issues at all! So you will be fine.
