Trunk swap possibly for a DG Coupe? Anyone want to go wingless?

After much debate and me laughing at your guys ironing board I figure I'd see if anyone was actually willing to go from winged to wingless with a trunk swap. My trunk is in perfect shape and figure before I dynomat and run all these wires in the trunk if I'm gonna do this may as well now. I wanted to go afternmarket but anyone else know the lip spoilers are kinda lacking as far as style? Some are just too whack.

I think wingless does look great but looks even better wtih a kit. Due to me buying a house soon going all out with the car is now a secondary priority. Would anyone be interested? Rather go this route than just buying an OEM lip - have heard some problems with that! If there aren't any problems, how about Mr. Rosenthal saying how much the price would be? Also what if I wanted the rear and front lip combo would that be discounted a little more? Thanks.

Yeah I keep going back and forth on the idea of a spoiler. I think the spoiler looks good only if its got the oem lip with it to finish off the look. I think wingless looks great if you got a clean kit on it with 19's. I think I may just get the spoiler, lip, wheels in the spring and will like the end result. Have to manage a house in there somewhere so still lookin around what my best options are as far as a spoiler. The front lip I'll just get through IOC or Rosenthal because it'll prob. be cheapest there.

what is the sticker on the oem lip? since we get 20% off parts, I wonder if that would make it cheaper than rosenthal.
