Please help with Spoiler selection...

I have an RS and would really like to get a spoiler for her. I don't want the stock wing because it is just to big and attracts unwanted attention. I like the suttle attention my RS gets and would like a low profile spoiler (not stock lancer style) that would compliment the bold lines of the car. I would really like a small lip that is kind of aggressive, maybe twice the size of the E46 M3 rear lip. Can anyone point me in the direction of a manufacturer that would make something like this for the Evo. Kind of like a whale tail but half the size...

These are the only lip spoilers that i can think of at the moment. Also Varis makes a wing base, not exactly a spoiler though......

I went with the M5 spoiler. It's wider and taller than the M3 spoiler. Actually hangs over the edge of the trunk slightly. If I go with a carbon fiber trunk, I'd like to get the c/f Varis piece.

What about an APR wing??? Its not too big, but it is a lil tall, it could be what your looking for. I think the APR CF wing would look great on the back of your RS.

Where did you get that spoiler from? Is it FRP?

I bought it off of Ebay for cheap. It's 48"x 2.5" x 1.5" tall, but 49" would actually match the trunk width better. I've seen some 49" versions since I bought mine. I had the M3 spoiler on my 2001 S4, so I knew it could be used on the Evo. They're kind of a flexible urethane, but can be painted. You can bend them to match the trunk line. I might paint it white, but I wanted to see if I liked it first. Some places sell them in carbon fiber, but I was afraid I wouldn't be able to bend it to match the curve of the trunk.

I was looking at the wings on the new Civic Hybrids, they're very similar to DEL TURBO's, but it may have a bit more rise in the back.
