This will depend on the weight savings and cost, either way it will be painted to match my car.

You know this got me thinking SRD back in the day made a full CF replica garnish, and I NEVER see anyone with one... Weird that no one has hung onto one.
i have a wrap around and im not 100% sold on it. it looks good from certain angles but i personally think its a bit bland. i want a rs raised one but who knows if ill ever find one . if youve got one tucked away mooneggs you should sell it to me

it doesn't look bland with the rest of the kit it was designed for
maybe I will sell it, I really don't like the raised RS for the same reasons you listed above

I couldn't ever figure out why my garnish looked funny... Because it was suppose to be black! Hence the reason why it's called a "raised" spoiler...
I feel like a complete idiot.
Personally, I think this looks a lot better. Well, the spoiler should match the rest of the car, but the painted garnish/lower portion looks awesome. Utterly awesome, and your picture makes me want that even more.
You'll get there, it just takes a bit of patience and a lot of hard work.
I'm tearing down a perfectly good KLZE in my car to fix 2 oil leaks It's not fun, especially since I can't drive the car while it's apart, but it will be fun when I get to rip around town in it again.
I'm glad to have 2 MX-3s now though, so I can still drive one at least I should have done this from day one.
I'll be painting my hatch garnish, as well as my GS spoiler... I'll probably keep the garnish to be honest. Weight savings work wonders for crappy hatch struts, and it looks so clean.
Well, I will tell you this for sure, I have a GS Spoiler in my garage and use to, when I unlocked my hatch, it wouldn't stay up. However, now that I have the RS Spoiler, it almost pops up by itself. That thing is super lighter than the GS Spoiler.
Believe me, I know I have 2 GS spoilers, 1 RS garnish, and a Wraparound floating around It's good to cut the weight out, especially since i have new hatch struts
Who really cares how heavy it weighs it looks good.
