i got the ebay one for 25 shipped, i figured if i didnt liked it i could just rip it off.

It Fitted as good as OEM so i kept it. no issues here,also my car is TB so didnt need it painted

I guess if you wanted painted get the Rexpeed better

Go with BaysonR if you want a black one, its a pefect fit, fast shipment, and great seller. No complaints!

Anyone usign the BaysonR Carbon Fiber Look Vortex Generator? How does its pattern look compared to the Carbon Fiber of the wing? Does it look different (i.e. other color or bigger pattern?)

I've heard bad things about ebay CF although I dunno about the BaysonR model. It is a phenomenal seller however I'd go with the solid black so it doesnt make your other CF look bad, it really blends in nicely I will try to post up pictures if I get around to it tomorow.

80210,

My evo is Silver and the wing has Carbon Fiber sides (on the inside) and top. Do you think it blends OK with that?

I just realized yours is APEX Silver too. Please post pics if you have them.

Thanks

I stated this very thing earlier on this thread. I have the BaysonR CF "look" VG. The thing looks good, same style weave, the color is a tad lighter but what do you expect for "look" alike.

I would buy it again for $50...
