Default spoiler question

Ok. i was gonna get a L-sportline spoiler but im not sure if I want to spend 340+ on a spoiler
my second option was a Rmm spoiler.. but i did a search and saw that people were having problems with the spoiler warping.. and getting out of wack
so then i decided on the Wings West.. has anyone expierenced problems with these spoilers?
also.. does anyone know where i can get one online (WingsWest doesn't sell online, from what i saw) and how much they are going for.. the Rodmillens are like 240 now or something.

Thanks
J

I have the Wings west lip spoiler, It was kind of a pain to prep, what I was told. Fitment is pretty good. It's smaller than the RMM, more subtle, almost flush with trunk lid. Im pretty happy.

If I were you I would hold off till Alex receives his prototype of the DSR spoiler. From my understanding, it's very minimalist in design and it's made to cover factory mounting holes if you already have a stock spoiler installed. I, for one, am very excited about this new development!

hmm... i wonder how it could look similar (3 piece) AND cover the factory holes something to look forward to none-the-less

I didn't say it was similar. Sorry for even remotely implying that. I am just offering an alternative for rear wings....

I know u don't want to spend more than 349 for a rear spoiler but one of the cleanest 3pc wings IMO is the Junction Produce 3pc wing.
