rear spoiler simple M or CSL

I feel that my e92 looks good from front with the bmw oem aero lip but quite "simple" from the rear view.
I have the m lip spoiler on my e46 and was a nice add but for about a $100 more can get the CSL add on spoiler and was wondering what people's perspectives were of the "add on"

Looks awesome
Looks like a obvious "add on" which is distracting
Have one and the fitment is ok
your comment " "

Here's the one I am considering

thanks for looking, my wife gave me the go to spend $300-$400 for my car

3 cars, 3 kids, 2 houses, priorities change as you get older and sometimes need the wifes blessing for special mods..

thanks for looking...

I don't like the add-on CSL. It looks too obvious like you mentioned that it's a stick-on.

Case in point:

Yea i agree too! I think M spoiler is the way to go! Simple but makes a nice, clean look!

IMO the M3 Lip is a cleaner look if you do the add on. I prefer the full CSL bootlid look but if you want to keep the OE bootlid, then stick with the M3 lip.

M3 spoiler looks nice and clean, the CSL looks ugly and it just doesnt look good in the car IMO.

yea, M3 looks nice, or the M-tech/OEM style spoiler look nice too. but definitely not the CSL add-on, if you want CSL, get the whole CSL trunk.

It would probably cost more to mold it than to just get a pre-made CSL trunk.
