Best looking Universal wings for a 4th gen?

I know the best wing for a 4th gen is the Stillen Type II, then possibly the Ionic one, and then the stock one...

But, I has no moolah for dem wings...

So... I have hookups with almost any universal spoilers out there and was wondering what aftermarket universal spoiler looks the best on a 4th gen (specifically a 97).

The wing can be no higher then 2" - 4" from the trunk.. don't want my neptune blue gxe to be as as another certain neptune blue 97 around these parts j/k j/k

I would prefer carbon fiber over aluminum, although the aluminum one would match my rims and the chrome trim (or should I turn the chrome stuff to carbon fiber? or body color?).

I feel so rice, but I am looking for some middle ground. Any suggestions? Post manufacturer and name of the wing if possible, or a pic.

Thanks,
Mario

Make one for $10. I made this one for a friend. It is lighter than carbon fiber. Very high performance. Made with Cardboard, duct tape, hot glue, and spray paint. The 88 Chevy Super Nova. Me and my friend wanted to mock all the ricers out there. For mods it also has red racing stripes and no exhaust. Ripped off at the engine.
