Default Rear Spoiler Options - What do you guys have?

I was looking at an 03 Yellow Z today with a Duraflex rear spolier.

I have to say it looked Sweet.

I know there are a number of you guys with rear spoilers, I am looking for opinions and also pic's of what you got.

Anyone using the Duraflex, ACI, SLP or any other Similar type spoiler are encouraged to share thier experience with me.

I would really appreciate some feedback before I decide which way to go. I dont want to drill holes in my vette so that may limit what's available.....

Let me know what you guys have

ACI because it looks OEM - should have come from the factory with that spoiler.

carbon fiber here....just did this before winter. Not sure I want to keep it...looked great to me in better weather. Now that it is winter and car is in storage it looks too contrasting to me now....but I see all kinds of black spoilers on other cars now coming out of Ford and GM and others... It does look really cool though looking out the rear window when driving...just right.

Here's the two I've have had on mine, the first 3 are Caravaggio and the last two I think were SLP. Liked both, but LOVE the Caravaggio. L8R ZFLASH

My two favorites are the Caravaggio and the ACI. The Caravaggio is installed with double-sided tape and the ACI is bolted on I believe.

I ordered the Caravaggio and I'm waiting on the delivery...

I like that spoiler except for the ends of the spoiler that extend and overlap on the body.
