Who has the classiest spolier by taste?

Right now I am running the M7 wing and it looks great and is a quality Aircraft Carbon Fiber piece, but I am approaching 30 so and I am looking for a little something more understated, but fits well also. Is anyone happy with a set up that they have now or would like to swap for my set up. I would be especially interested in the part if it is pure silver spoiler or wing. But basically I am asking everyone's opinion as to who manufactures or sells the most refined rear spoiler for out car that is under 600 US dollars? I would greatly appreciate anyones help.

I personally like the JCW rear wing. There was a thread on applying one awhile ago, I am just too lazy to look for it. There were pics of it on a pure silver. Good luck with the new project.

Remember you are only as old as you feel.

The factory aero spoiler looks nice. It's simple and clean looking, that's why I have it.

The standard Cooper with no wing is classiest to me (my taste). Wish there was a wing delete box to check when I ordered my R53 MCS.

definition of classy can vary by person. Basically cooper spoilers are the most mild, then S spoiler, then the aero spoiler, followed by JCW. I dont believe any of these spoilers are obnoxious by any means. I have the JCW, at some angles it definitely says "look at me", but at other angles, you can barely even see it on the car. Here are a few angles of mine, just for reference to help you decide.

I think the Orciari spoiler looks great!! But I don't think you can beat a spoiler-less look in my opinion. So clean

Beats me.

And I'm not tasting mine to find out!
