Thinking of buying a new car that now has a spoiler-- |
|
which I don't want. The salesman says they can remove the spoiler no problem. Two questions: Won't that leave a mark? Will this affect how the car handles? BTW, the car is a Ford Fusion Thanks.

I'd have thought, in theory, that the spoiler would be bolted on. I suppose they could Bondo the holes and reshoot the paint in the area. As for handling, doubtful. The spoilers on today's heavy, non-high performance cars are for looks mostly.

maybe they will simply swap the lid out with a non-spoiled one of the same color. The typical sedan spoilers ain't no big deal. Mostly for looks. Do you not like the look? http://image.motortrend.com/f/31288218+w750/2010-ford-fusion-SE-rear-three-quarter.jpg

3. Well this guy claimed there would be no problem |
|
It will be the same car, so given what you both said I might have to back off.
