I say F everyone man. It's your car, do want you want. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder and none of these douche bags is "beholding" YOUR car. Me, I agree with everyone that it looks like $hit, but don't let that bother you. You go put the biggest, gaudiest wing you can find on it and paint it primer gray if that's what makes you happy, don't let these fools kill your dreams.

i generally don't like adding wings but lip spoilers i think can be ok...not something i would do necessarily but why not if you like the look...i mean BMW offered an OEM carbon fiber lip spoiler for the 135i which a lot of people bought and i thought it looked fine if you were going for a really aggressive look.

i am still trying to get used to all the audi boards to be honest. say what you want but the BMW boards were far more robust and creative without being filled with people who have no taste. E90 post isn't that bad... Only think that bothered me was that there were a lot of people with too much money in SoCal that were buying M3s and putting $10k worth of 4 ton stereo equipment into a race car.

THAT MY FRIENDS IS STUPID.

Wing spoiler...that's really up to you and it sounds like you are keeping it pretty tight so you should go for it.

I made a subtle addition in this area. It would take a true enthusiast to even notice it was there.

In terms of lap times, this made the biggest improvement of any mod I've done - over 4 seconds on a 2 minute track. It creates about 250 pounds of downforce at 100 MPH. There's a reason these things are class illegal in many types of racing. It's basically cheating. The main downside is the drag costs you 5 MPG highway.
