I would respect them even less for going with other people's opinions over what they initially (or really) want.

LOL@cheaper! Yeah, but really Centrum, the decklid, in my opinion is hella better look than the wing. The wing makes the TL look like it is headed for the track or like a toy - IMHO!! But the lid makes it look smooth and like Trance said, it goes good with the lines of the car. Why get the wing when you can have the best of both worlds? Plus, chicks dig the lid!

TL-S Lip gets my vote - drilled mine on today.

Was much easier than you would think. The wing looks kinda ghetto IMO - I love the look of the TL-S lip.

Thought I like the deck lid better, but seeing the wing, now I am having second thoughts. Looks nice!

Mine is the deck lid.....lip.....spoiler......not the wing. It's actually the 07 TL-S lip.

Dealer-Installed Lip Pricing?

How much should I expect to pay to have a lip installed by the dealer at time of purchase of an '07 TL? Thanks in advance for any insights!

The part (lip) sells for $100.00 from a couple of the vendors on this forum. I'm not sure what the dealer would charge but I wouldn't pay more than $100.00 for the lip.

Installation is easy but I can understand if you are itimidated - I was at first. I wouldn't pay more than another $50.00 or so to have it dealer installed.

If you kept the TL at top speed (150mph) then I would "assume" that the lip spoiler would be more effective by adding a touch more downforce to the rear. The wing is just for show isn't it? Well for that matter I guess they both are really just for show.

I don't have one, but being an old fart I would probably get the lip spoiler. I had a wing spoiler on my Nissan Maxima (03) and I thought it made that car look better. I think the TL looks good with the lip or wing, and also looks just as good without either of them as well.

OOps - at the time of purchase? You haven't picked up your car yet I assume.....

Make the dealer do it for nothing......I think they will if you push them hard enough.......
