Question Attn: Rice or Nice ???

Okay Guys,
I need some opinions here. All are welcome, good or bad. I've been going back and forth over the wing issue for my car. Some days I like the wingless look, some days the OEM spoiler look, and some days the STI CF look. I've posted links below to STI CF wing on a black WRX with my exact rims (Well, his are 18's). Please take a look and tell me what you think.

PS: I'd shrink and post the pics directly, but well; I suck at the internet

Thanks,
Steve

Shoulda done a poll as well, here are the pics. I like stock personally. The CF just doesnt flow well, you got all the gaps where it mounts. Stock flows off the car so nice. I also think anything CF is ricey, I like hoods and such, but still think they are ricey.

Thanks Dave !!!! OBTW, price is not an issue, I'd get the replica CF wing not the "real deal"

would you buy the real STi wing, or the replica?

how much does a stock one cost? the STi? how deep is your wallet? how many more go-fast parts should you buy first. j/k

I think I would get the STi wing ....

I go back and forth, the more I look at the pics it looks ok, but every time I see one on a car I hate it. They seem to look better with cars with full body kits and all the other ricey add-ons, just dont know about it on a stock exterior car.

I've read one thing about the replica, and that's that the plastic cover around the base doesn't fit flush very well with the trunk lid.

but you could verify that with all the people buying them.


OR, .... you could just buy this incredibly BAD *** hood!!!!
