Default Veilside or Rod millen spoiler ?

I am debating on spoilers right now for my new GS(yeah have to change my name and sig)... I love the way the Veilside Executive one looks, I like the way it goes straight accross the trunk (no cutout), I seen the rod millen one and it looks very similar from what I can tell but it comes down a little too far and has a cutout for the Lexus Emblem(I think) but is very affordable.
Do I have it right? I just could have sworn I seen some pics when I did a search and I seen one with a cutout that people were refering to it as the Veilside Executive spoiler, I want this one (no cutout), I am sure u guys seen the pic below, where can I get the best deal on it.... thanks

Just a heads up to you...the VS spoiler does not cover all of the factory mounting holes...if you already have the factory spoiler that is. You will have to ge them filled, and most likely the entire trunk lid re painted.

Veilside is def a nice spoiler, clean look with no creases, just one piece. Its about twice the price of the RMM (450 or so versus 250 or so)

Good taste in wings!

Default Veilside

Nah I don't have a stock wing on my car, I am actually glad now, whatever one I choose will set me apart from the rest of the 2nd generations like my 1st generation did.

Thanks D, hopefully that Veilside one will look good with no body kit, I don't think I will choose that route, too much to get chipped up, I will be drivin it a lot. Hopefully someone will tell me the best/cheapest place to purchase it.

Yeah, I am leaning heavily toward the VS exec spoiler as well. I assume it is put on with double sided tape? Anyone know the best person/place to get it?

I personally would avoid RMM. For awhile, they had warping issues with their 3 pc. wings and it did not sit flush with the car. Many members here have also stopped buying their grilles because of fitment issues. Also, just recently, my girlfirend bought me a RMM STB which looked like hell. Had dings and scratches in it. Horrible chroming job. We had to request a second STB which only looked a little better. On the other hand, Veilside........ YOU CAN'T GO WRONG!!!!

in my opinion, i would go for VS Executive spoiler. you could try the Wingswest 3 pieces spoiler, it won't cut out the L. Go to intenspower.com for the deal. They quote me $1500 for the VS side skirt, rear bumper and spoiler. post some pics when you have it on
