Yeah, while the 3 mth wait for ordering what I wanted was tedious, worth every day of it.

/OB would have been 2nd choice. The maintenance issue. But with the info on this forum (mostly from the sticky started by DI), I'm now a detailing fiend LOL. OB would probable have worked out just fine...go figure.
//Still appreciate the ability to be less (at least a little) a freak w/ keeping up the AG.

Yeah AG is definitely less maintenance. But I just washed and waxed my baby after neglecting it for a month so I'm pretty satisfied.

I really like the chrome lip on the IP and the VR. But on the other colors, not so much. I am not a fan of spoilers because the several I've had in the past were a PITA. I like the shineyness of the chrome on mine.

I'm opposite. I have an IP and I made sure it had a spoiler. I hate the chrome lip on it. The only color I do like the chrome lip in is OB.

I had to have the spoiler. I just could not stand the 3rd brake light on the rear deck. None of my cars so far had it up there, so i made my dealer go to VA to get my car.

I got mine the week it cam out and I wanted the spoiler but it didnt have it on and it was so new they couldnt order a spoiler to swap out. They told me to come back in two weeks to swap them and by then the chrome lip grew on me. I kept it on it looks good on IP.

Chrome lip = bleh
Factory Spoiler = nice

I love the look of the spoiler on my blue slate...way better than the chrome lip.

Plus, like someone said earlier, it adds like 10hp!!omg!1!!
