It'll look good either way, but I'm just not a fan of CF for things where it's purely cosmetic.

In general I agree with you, Dave. However, some tastely-added CF parts would accentuate the car even more. For example, on my Aristo, I have the CF window sills and CF pillars, and then I have the CF AB Flug grill on order too. I think the CF DSR roof spoiler would go really well with the other CF additions. I am not planning to add anymore CF parts though. There's a fine line between looking classy and looking rice.

dsr roof spoiler
well guys thanks to hkgs300, i was able to obtain this dsr roof spoiler. it came painted in black already so it was a plus for me. the fitment is great; no warping issue or whatever. i was deciding on this spoiler or the ugo; in the end i pick this cuz it's available now and sit on the class.

Looks good. Sounded like a simple install as well. How much did it cost you painted?

PHML - mine came painted already, but you can get one prepainted.
Letsride - pm HKGS300 for good price . he was a great help in obtaining this for me.
jtanoyo1 - fitment isgreat; no warping or alignment issue! just put on the 3m tape to the back, line them up (got 2 other friends to hold each end while i line up in the middle: i'm very picky when it comes to this kinda stuffs), stick it on the glass, and then put pressure on it. that's it.
