which clubman spoiler do you prefer?

I'm currently in italy so i dont see many clubmans and i see even fewer with spoilers. i've been thinking about getting one but can't decide which i like more, having only seen them in photos.

that being said, which spoiler do you prefer? stock? JCW? or none at all?

any opinions or insight on them would be greatly appreciated.

this would be a great poll if i knew how to start one...

None, personally. I think spoilers kind of take the class out of a car, but I'm not much of a flashy, bling kind of fella.

But as far as spoilers go, the stock MINI spoiler option is pretty understated.

Personally I think the Clubman has a very nice roof line and should be undisturbed by a spoiler. When I picked up the car, I had the JCW spoiler in hand and decided against it. I just liked it without.

Now, the spoiler on a clubman serves NO actual purpose but aesthetic looks.

I really big shopping cart-like spoiler, or a razor blade looking spoiler. Yeaaaahh and then a shaker hood

No spoiler, like original mini.

I prefer the smooth curved spoiler over the JCW angular spoiler.

So my rear spoiler really won't give me the 20 additional aerodynamic horsepower that everyone told me it would get?!? I've been ripped!
