Thanks everyone. So basically everyone recommends the GTO spoiler, but I have to be honest that I don't really care for it. I don't think it looks bad, but it doesn't fit with my view of my car. Photomunkey's spoiler is a little too "track" for me as well. Carbon fiber trunks worry me in regards to fitment and I don't care for the carbon fiber look, so I would just get it painted. Nothing seems to be calling out to me, so at this time I am either going back to OEM spoiler or the evo-r.

Really can't tell if your OEM spoiler is damaged in any way or not, but if it is, you're Ti-gray, and decide OEM............................... https://www.rx8club.com/rx-8-parts-sale-wanted-44/f-s-various-stuff-163778/

Yea I've been looking at a ton of others as well. I like the vertex lang and some others, but I don't really feel like waiting for months.

Ings has an excellant rear spoiler.
The GTo is too big and does not follow the lineson the side of the car since it over hangs.

Also for Lips... Racing Beat have an excellant one. Nice and subtile but efficent and works.

Try Bullet Automotive for pictures.

Actually the Vertex is better. You will see in person.

Bullet Automotive? do you mean Bulletproof??
I never said it wasnt better, but the Vertex is a lip and the GTO is a stanchion based wing, two very different looks, I like both but as fars lip spoilers go I would go with the RMagic I dont think lips should overhang the trunk...

I love that vertex look a lot. Would that look good on a car with no bodykit though? Rmagic looks great too. I don't mind waiting (it was like 6 months waiting for my exhaust), its just my car is getting fixed by the other guys insurance. How is the vertex held on? I forgot about the Racing Beat. I called them the other day and they have 2 in stock. Might go that route too. Thanks for all the input guys.

Japanparts has a ship leaving dock at the end of January https://www.rx8club.com/showthread.p...27#post2821927 you can get both the RMagic and Vertex from them...
Either one will look fine without a bodykit,, good luck with your decision

Thanks for all the nice pictures everybody. I'm down to the racing beat or the vertex for a spoiler. I could get a trunk/lip combo though. The trunk was quoted at $707 + paint if I am reading it right. Decisions decisions.
