HELP advice wanted!!! Apr spoil or custom duckbill trunk.....

Okay guys. Some of you are familiar with my build. I have some last second advice questions. It's going to the shop soon... Then to the Dyno, then to interior. But I have some exterior questions. Should I do a high ride apr spoiler, or a taller duck bill trunk??? Also hood latches aerocatch Or mustang style with the wire. I have a fender flare widebody going on soon.... Pics a re below.

Few things to keep in mind. Car is going widebody with fender flares. Hood, roof and trunk are all carbon fiber. Therefore I would be mounting the apr spoiler to a carbon fiber trunk.

Pic of what the car may look like with flares on



Photoshop of apr spoiler on



Duckbill will look slightly different than this.




Hood latches may look a touch different as well.
Aerocatch


Mustang style WILL look different

Yea, I just don't know what to do hahaha..... I would toss on a roof spoiler if I did the more aggressive duck bill.

I like the aerocatch ones as they are cleaner, but the others would be unique, and if you are going with aggressive widebody and such, I think that it actually might be a good choice.

Along with the same vision of trying to achieve an agressive look, and also considering that it's going to be widebody, I think that the APR spoiler would be my choice

I've been a member here since '05 and have seen some very nice wide body kits installed. Not a fan of riveted on flares, kind of a half azz way to do the job! That's all you see in todays car mags, doesn't make it right...just cheap!

Wow I'm so offended I'm never returning... Jk I'm not offended. I like the look, and will eventually mold them in most likely. I just like the rivet look.
