Help me choose a "wing"!
 
Alright, I am having a hard time picking out a wing for my car. I seem to change my mind each time I look at them. They all have their own merits. I am going to be putting several CF bits on it.

The small spoiler is the classiest of the bunch, but I think I want a little more bold as I think my car looks pretty mild right now. Nobody seems to think I might want to play. #2 I am not sure I like how rounded it is on the back side, but is the one I flip flop with as my favorite. #3 (M5 style) is a bit big, but I think my favorite (this pic isn't the greatest, it slopes down on the front side more than it looks like). #4 is an OEM look, but meh.

4, looks like it flows with the body best. Any side shots or are these the best?

#1 looks too small to even put on.
#2 looks great! Not too small or big.
#3 the shape of it does not match anything at all.
#4 looks decent but kind of out of place. Looks flat to me and doesnt stand out.

More pictures of different angles would help a lot.

Side shot on a black car. Added another pic to each one.

Now I prefer #4. Flows with body like what tehehodi said. #2 looks good at certain angles but that 2nd picture of it looks very weird.

The thing I don't like about #4 is it is like a trunk extender, it doesn't stick up at all just goes farther back.

Sorry, 2nd pic of #2 was the wrong wing. Fixed now. That was the high kick version which I don't like.

2 or 4 from the pics provided.

#4, But only if the spoiler matched the color of the car. The others don't fit the lines of the trunk lid and body.

Going on this car, but will be getting several other carbon bits. Diffuser will be more aggressive and carbon. Carbon front splitter, smoked marker lights and front fender reflectors.

So I came into this thread, saw the text description, and I'm expecting a lot of different sized wings:

2.

3.

But seriously, I think #1 is crazy small, #3 does look out of place as far as body lines (at least from what I can see in pics), and I don't like the trunk extender style #4. My choice would be #2. What does something like that run, 300ish?

LOL, nice :D I know pretty much the size I want, there are several more out there that just aren't an option. I haven't really fallen in love with any of them unfortunately. They are all around $150.

Wow, that's not bad at all, I figured there would be a BMW "tax" on parts. I would wait until you find one you really like.

Either #2, or a complete CSL style trunk (this is actually my favorite look).

How is it the Asian guy who likes ricey matching color stuff is the only one voting for the smallest one?!?!

I like #4 the best, but I personally like it best painted to match.. (i know not your color car, but best i could find quick)

I picked #2 out of your options but I'm starting to like the wingless look a lot more these days.

I'd buy all the other stuff first if you're undecided and then pick one after you get the other items one.
