OEM wing or wingless?????

I was just wondering what style everyone here prefers on the 2G TL? I think the car looks attractive with the OEM wing, then the decklid strip, and 3rd choice wingless.

OEM wing

wingless

decklid strip

Am I the only one that like the OEM wing? The Mugen is very nice of course, but I have better chance at winning the lottery.

I love the OEM wing. I think it gives a great sporty/classy look. Mugen and the Decklid is more of the sporty/agressive look.

Wingless is more of a sleeper mode, or just any other car out there look. It really depends on what you are after. I'm not saying one look is better than the other. This is ALL on everyones OPINION.

The decklid strip M3/M5 lip is not even noticeable, just save your money for a real spoiler or leave it spoilerless.

From your choices, Wingless.

OEM is ok, and it'll be the most cost efficient.

M3/M5... I dunno. I just feel like it belongs on a BMW... and most people dont even get the real BMW kind, but some knock off on Ebay... if you're ok with that then hey, by all means.

Wingless is classic, but eh, I wanted something different.

My top 3 favorite are Mugen, Blaze and Wings West. I went with Wings West because I happened to come across one.

I love the OEM. To me, it just flows with the OEM kit perfectly. Like the Mugen, which to me is the best, then comes OEM, but I dont like the WW, m5 or to be wingless. When it comes to wingless, its like, something is missing, when you have a WW kit or OEM kit. M5 isnt noticeable, and looks best on the m3/m5. WW isnt my style.

I am shocked at how close the pole is, I don't think that it would be as close if the Mugen spoiler was an option. Personally I'll just stay wingless because the affordable options just aren't worth it to me.

I think any car looks more classy wingless.....unless your racing the car professionally, I just think those ,functional or not, wings just look silly and out of place on everyday roads...sorry just my opinion.

I dont like the OEM spoiler because i don't think it goes well with the sharp angles of the car. To whoever said the lip spoiler is not noticeable, i get compliments all the time If I would have had excessive amounts of money, I would have went mugen. But I dont, so $80 shipped for a painted lip spoiler was good for me

Do you have pictures of your car with it on? If not where did you get it from and what kind of spoiler is it?

OEM wing here, by I'd go for the mugen if I had the cash. Wingless doesn't look right to me.
