Added the M Decklid spoiler this week, went for the body color version, not Performance Carbon Fibre. OEM perfect fit, looks great
Wifey calls it the "go fast wing".

Also bought 7cm iPod USB cable, deleted the 3' Apple version that jammed up the center console., found I can turn the iPod sideways, freeing up nearly all the rest of stoarge area.
