Rear Spoilers
The Caravaggio style is on my list of things to do, but ACI is currently having a 20% off sale. Their AWF740 seems to be essentially the same design as the "C" one. Any input here? What am I missing (other than about a $200 price difference)? They look the same in their respective pictures on the manufacturer's websites.

The two are very close.
The ACI doesn't cover the entire area between the spoiler and the trunk lid.
The ACI has a bit higher angle on the spoiler.
The ACI side spears are a bit shorter.
I compared the two for a long time until I saw tehm both in person. Then it was a much easier choice. On the car, IN PERSON, they are clearly different.
I chose the Caravaggio. JMHO.

I waited until I seen them both at Carlisle and chose the ACI. I like the higher angle of the ACI. I kept looking at the Caravaggio thinking it looked like a big tongue laying on the rear deck of the car and couldn't get that out of my mind.

Thanks to all--the pictures (from different angles) are a real help. I like the idea of the Caravaggio going all the way to the edge of the trunk. HMMM-have to re-think this.

They do look similar. Most people don't notice the differences unless you are really paying attention. I went with the ACI myself and have liked it. No problems at all. Really can't go wrong with either choice though. 
Caravaggio for me. L8R ZFLASH
