Trunk Lid For TL Base Help?

Hey guys. I want a trunk lid for my TL, but its around 500$ at the dealer for it. But ive seen ones on ebay for 30-40$. just wondering if those are good or not. If anyone has bought one let me kno how it worked out.
thanks

If you want the Type-S one, then its crazy money. But if you prefer the look of the stock lip, then people usually get the ebay one since it looks identical to OEM.

you couldnt tell the difference because they both look like.
I assume the difference between the two would be its weight.

the type-s deck lid spoiler has some subtle differences to the base spoiler.
I THINK its a bit wider, or it flares differently.
there IS a difference but to the general public, no one can tell.

I could be wrong but from what I know, the actual deck lids themselves are identical but the Type-S has the added/attached lip spoiler where base has none.

I added the optional Acura wing to mine since I have the base model.

Thanks for the pics. It looks like that the type S is wider and may go up higher
