I'd say the top, but would prefer it to direct airflow straight down the back glass, if it doesnt do that already.

I have both, but I guess if I were to pick one it would be the mid.

I went with the top only, that's what I did, the mid-gate spoiler is only good to use as a beer can shelf while waxing the car, and I don't drink beer. Post 980

I voted top as well, but the mid is handy when you want to set a drink down.

since when have you been racing your Vibe in the World Of Outlaws championships . id prefere the top spoiler over the mid. the mid is useless there even if our vibes where RWD instead of FWD and its fugly when mounted.

I prefer the top mounted one. I think it makes the Vibe look better. I don't have one yet, but I'll get one next year.

The Vibe isn't really capable of attaining a speed in which the spoiler would prove to be aerodynamically useful. Unless we have some 150-200 MPH Vibes around that I don't know about. lol!
