A wing on back is an excellent finish, OEM or other wise what ever your preference go for it.

then save some chips to get the JP one.

I prefer wingless. Now a roof spoiler might be something to look at though.

If anything, find one that is flush mounted and not raised up off the trunk lid. I am considering the sd. for that classic look

I never cared for the OE wing that came on my 2000 GS400. The only thing I liked about it was the LED brake light.

I like the wingless look okay, but a low-profile deck spoiler visually lengthens the GS trunk a little; this is a good thing, because the 2GS has a short trunk. I bought the JP spoiler, the best looking unit out there in my opinion. I also looked at the WIN spoiler, it's okay but a bit bulky.

If you have a GS with an OE spoiler and you decide to change it, you'll have to come up with a solution for losing the third brake light. We came up with a slick solution... to be seen very soon!
