I don't think what I typed came out the way I meant it actually....
the Vorsteiner is my absolute favorite rear spoiler by far. I just don't like the carbon fiber strip for the look of my car. One little carbon fiber strip would look out of place on my "blacked out" car and would drive me crazy every time I looked at it
Better?

Hmm... I'm sure you wouldnt notice this if you had this one with the CF strip. If anything, have CF emblems might add to the look. But one strip of CF on a completely black car would be odd.

Guys and gals, help me out. I'm gonna be taking my car in for some body work as I have some damaged on my rear bumper. Anyways, I figured it might be a good time to get a spoiler but I am not sure. Do you guys like the looks without the spoilers?
Depends. How old are you?

i love the vornsteiner spoiler. i think i was one of the lucky ones that bought this spoiler when they sold it with just a CF strip not full. Paid about $650 painted for it.

Yes. I hate you.. and Joe (VT). Both of you guys got it when it was cheaper. When I went to try to get it, it was nowhere in sight.

I had a Roof and Trunk Spoiler on my 530, but with the new car, I decided to go with Trunk only. I think it works better on this particular model and the lines of the car. I felt the roof spoiler on the M5 wasn't as clean.
