My car has it. I couldn't tell you the number of times I've glanced down when getting into my car and done a double take. It looks really odd when the trunk is closed. Like something lodged in the leading edge of the trunk lid while driving.

Update:

Opted for the CF trunk lid.

Finding scrapped lids in New England proved considerably more difficult than originally presumed and shipping one from elsewhere made it as much or more than the CF.

Planning on getting the spoiler before end of summer.

Any advice people could offer on colour matching 2013 WRB (02C I believe?) with vinyl?

Spoke with my body shop and they said they'd likely have to sand the shit out of the CF to get the primer to stick right so I'm looking into vinyl just in case I decide to part out down the road.

I have no idea how vinyl could ever match paint, but I am interested in what happens.
