I like both but choose to run the ARKYM because it's less main steam.

Merry Christmas guys--to those that celebrate and to those that go out for chinese food and the movies!
IMO, Wald is too rugged or "bulky" to me; Arkym looks good in person; and Tom's flows and is symmetrical.

Tom's also reaches up higher than the Arkym onto the bumper...I might do a coinflip

Bro, IMO I like the Arkym. However, you can't go wrong either way. Both look nice. Good luck!

I'm bias but I vote Toms, Wald is a lil aggressive which is prolly why you were between the Toms and Arkym

Wasnt the Arkym guys having issues with the fact you could see the carbon fiber threads at the edges, didnt one member have to it painted to get rid of that? Tom's fitment is perfect and unbeatable IMO

lol i love threads like this obviously each person who bought a specific style ie tom's or arkym will say they like that one better because they have it lol.

i have arkym but my bud charles (Hewitt) has a toms and to me both look just great you can't go wrong with either set up. I have a full arkym kit (lip, side skirts, diffuser, trunk spoiler and roof spoiler) i went this direction because it is not as common and like doing things that are not as common.

Either one you get will fit perfectly and look nice. Both are high grade materials and the fit is perfect you can't go wrong

Also I went with Arkym because I like there front lip better and the fact that they offer a trunk and roof spoiler where toms does not..///



front lip shot and why i like Arkym
