if you want cf go for it. i have a seibon dv hood and seibon wing. i went with that because i wanted a real aggressive look to it. If you want a clean look and ur into JDM style you should go with that aero tourer wing. So if u want an aggressive/mean look, go with the cf, if u want a clean/smooth look, go with the aero tourer version, painted of course. thats my thoughts, but definitely dont go without one at all

I would skip on the wing right now in general. If I were you I'd keep saving money to buy the wheels and tires that you really want. New wheels change the whole look of the car. I have the same set up I have the Hotchkis lowering springs and sways with 18x8.5 wheels and I only rub if I dont see a big dip and accidently hit it. I've been contiplating to buy some 20's, but I know I'll rub like a mug on them.

Overall I would just keep saving money and buy the wheels and tires.

^^My whole thing is I am saving for a house right now, meaning I live with the rents still (____ty life lol) and if I get new rims I have no place to keep the steelies, which I wanna get some Blizzaks for so I can ride them during the winter and have my 18's for the other seasons. So purchasing all this other stuff in the mean time is just my leftover money saved up waiting for the house....

In that case the logical way I would think is if you plan on getting other carbon fiber part? If you get the wing and later on get a hood and maybe the window trim it will help balance the carbon fiber look. If you dont plan on getting other carbon fiber pieces I would stick with an oem spoiler.

Since your saving for house and are looking to build on a budget, you could look into getting a spoiler off of ebay. I bought mine off of ebay. Its not a perfect in matching, its slightly a shade off in color, but you can only tell if you look close at it. and I only paid $125 for it, so it didnt empty my wallet u know.

thats what I have been looking at doing; I just havent found anything worth a damn off ebay considering I could pay like $40 more and get it from the dealer and know its the right one..... Im just not exactly looking to buy right at this point I dont think unless something at a good price comes out and slaps me in the face!!
