Default Rear Spoiler Pics Please

Constantly thinking about an aftermarket spolier, but haven't seen enough of them to decide. Also, if you have one, does it help to cut down on the dust build up on the back. Let's see yours...

I have an SLP unit I like, I do believe I get less dust around the tails for sure.

I also have the SLP that I got from RPI Design and it comes painted to match your color (as long as you are a stock color). I agree with Mr. Bill it appears that I get lest dirt and dust in the tail lights.

The SLP one follows the body lines, is subtle and looks like it came factory. The ACI one cuts across the rear fender lines and looks like an afterthought.

Believe it or not, it is just taped on.

It comes with some really good 3M tape. I spent hours positioning the wing and the tape so that the fit is seamless. I am not totally happy with it, but everyone else is.

I think it looks great, a good addition to the lines of a beautiful car

i really like the RPI one. it looks like it could have came on the car. for a mod that is for pure looks like a spoiler on a street car it needs to look like it was factory. the ACI one goes across the natural body lines on each side and makes it look like an afterthought.
