M-lip or Oem spoiler?

Im trying to decide if I want to add a spoiler, "m" lip or OEM would be my 2 choices. What do you think?

I've seen the difference between the two and I felt as if the 97-99 trunk looks better with the OEM or none at all. But it looked very nice with the 95-96 trunk

They MAY be the same, or some immitation. Double sided (doesnt have to be 3m) tape sticks it on.

Yeah I know, so I was just wondering why pay more from paradox if you get the same product for 20bucks less.

i agree. if i had ur car, i would paint the keyhole white, and replace the liscene frame to chrome to match up w/ the tip for an extra cleaner look. as for the wing/m lip, i remmember who was it, max4speed i believe, has the m lip and it looks pretty sick IMO

i think what u should do is, go find a white max like w/ an OEM wing and ask urself if u like it or not. of course everyone has OEM wings but not many have the m-lip.

i would definitely get the lip. i have one myself. just make sure u dont cheap out and get it from ebay. mine is so hard and unflexible, i had to epoxy the ends down the curve of the trunk. get the paradox systems one. from what i read, it is very flexible.

Awesome there is no shipping charges or anything when buying this from paradox...just a flat $50. I have a question tho...it looks really small....is this the one that you bought for your car gtr?
