If you're getting a replica, I'd go with the one with the cutout. If you're going whole hog and thinking about the actual ACS spoiler, I'd go with whatever is cheaper since I don't think it's worth the premium you pay for ACS.
As for 'tacky'.....obviously I'm biased since that third pic is my car
. I always found the E60 was missing something on the front and back ends. While I'm no fan of whale tails and ricey EVO or WRX spoilers, no decklid spoiler at all?...ick. My 2 cents.

I only like the first one because the second one looks like it doesn't cover the window molding completely. Depending on the rest of the mods on your car, I do like the non-notch better though. It looks like it would flow better with minimum mods.

A rear deck lid spoiler? That's funny, because I actually think a deck lid spoiler is much worse. I like the clean look of the trunk without a spoiler. However, the rear spoiler up high on the rear glass is subtle, yet fills in the aggressive lines of the car. I really like the first picture I posted of Axis530's car. This is probably because I have JetBlack too and he doesn't have a rear deck lid spoiler on either.

Definitely Spoiler 1. Spoiler 1 has the cutout for the high mount stop lamp. Not sure if you can even see it on Spoiler 2.
