OEM style rear spoiler or not for non-performance package
Trying to decide if I should add a spoiler to the trunk. Yay (sporty look) or nay (clean look)?

I want to add the carbon fiber spoiler. I think it looks really cool. Only problem is it almost a grand. I'm debating on 3M heat deflecting tint or the spoiler.

Is the auto spoiler that comes with the perf package "only" auto, or can you keep it engaged all the time ??

It can be engaged with a button in the cabin. I believe normal operation is it comes on at around 80 KMH/50 MPH and retracts when under 40 KMH/25 MPH.

Ok, that makes sense, I was hoping it was the case.

Std. tint works very well. Special "Carbon Coated", 'infrared Enhanced', etc. are really a waste of $(IMHOP).

Is this from Artisan? Permanently Attached? I agree, it looks good.

Yes, I pulled this from the Artisan thread......I vaguely remember that someone said it was taped. But I would need a more permanent solution.

Plus, the folks behind you when they see it retract when you slow down... probably doing a double take, lol

It's up at 55 MPH, down at 20MPH. I feel pretentious leaving it up permanently.
