Spolier choices for 2001 CL-S

Im considering putting a spolier on my silver 2001 CL-S (it doesnt currently have one), and want to know if anyone has any info on the following:

*Factory spoiler: approx. how much does a shop charge to install it? Is it easily installed by a non-mechanic? What are good places to purchase? The dealer quoted me $599, but I have seen them online for a lot cheaper..quality differences?

*M5 style lip spoiler: how easy is this one to install? Where do you purchase?

Thanks in advance for any replies.

If you decide on the OEM version, get it from www.spoilerdepot.com Much cheaper and the quality is just as good as OEM.

they are both nice wings... diffrent folks, diffent strokes... personally i like em both... the M5 is probably the best solution if your torn between the two... its cheaper and a lot easier to install.

if money isnt an issue the stock wing is hot too... / not too easy to install in your if your not savvy about body work (multiple issues such as centering/ drilling & waterproofing techniques)

they're are some questions you have to answer for yourself... tons of opinions here and awesome resources to see what it'll look like. final choice should be yours though... im sure which ever you go with you'll be content with the results... good luck!!!

I think if I had to do it over I would've gone with no spoiler on my cls from the dealer...

and maybe an m5 lip spoiler.
