CF Rear Spoiler or Not?

Car arrives at dealer today. Installing MPE, front splitter, rear diffusor, black kidneys. The question I have been struggling with is...

The M4 makes a great sport luxury fashion statement. I like the looks of the rear trunk w/o spoiler and 49% of the time I like the CF spoiler. However, since this thing is permanent once affixed does the CF rear spoiler detract and take away from the looks of the car or does it in YOUR OPINION add to the looks of the car? Thoughts?

I think it looks kind unconnected IMHO
However, you can order painted CF spoiler, so it will match the body paint of your car.

I love how the CF spoiler looks. I've seen it in person on a FO M4 and it just felt right to me!

M3 spoiler looks better than the M4 spoiler. If you have an M4 leave it at the CSL style rear deck.

I think most of you are sharing the same sentiment I have...it doesn't look "connected" on an M4 as it does on an M3. Hate to go against a fellow Plano-ite (lived near campbell and Frankford as a teen).

That does it...no spoiler. Thanks for helping push me over the edge and reaffirming my thoughts.

Haha, I lived right over there as well actually a few years back. I'll be getting the CF Spoiler on mine soon. I think the reason why i feel that it's integrates well is due to the fact that it carries the lines from the center of the car all the way down to the spoiler. It feels aggressive as hell to me. To each their own, however

I am not going to make my decision blindly. The dealer has a CF spoiler for me to look at and place on the car. doing that Friday. who knows? this car is not photo friendly maybe I will change my mind.

Yes! I saw this! I think with SO the CF parts look the best and that side pic is something I have been looking at specificly to help me make a decision. I have MW, but I think SO is the best color for the CF parts.

Car arrived at the dealership today. Went down and had them place the spoiler on the rear. Definitely putting the spoiler on. Looks so mush better in person than pictures!
