Default To Spoiler, or not to Spoiler...That is the question?

Ok, I've been thinking about this for a very long time. When I bought the car the trunk was slightly scratched up so I've always thought about swapping it.

The question is do i get a trunk with a OEM spoiler, after market spoiler, or just bare naked trunk. Personally OEM spoiler or no spoiler looks great either way.

I'd get a carbon trunk with the RMM 3-piece wing, IMO

i like the oem no spoiler look. if you can get your hands on the trd carbon trunk then that would be nice too. i like the jp rear 3 piece spoiler. i wrapped my trunk in carbon and wrapped the jp replica spoiler in carbon as well

I was also in the same dilemma- liking the OEM spoiler, non spoiler, and SD spoiler. In the end I just decided on a subtle lip spoiler that should actually be here today
