If not I'll trash it and try something else. Haha...

I respect everyone's opinion, and I know you guys have different tastes. That spoiler will definitely match the Fabolous kit. It will probably look horrible if you have different kit, such as Lorinser or Wald.
It does not look like rice to me, and there's nothing wrong with rice cars either... I like them, but it also depends what kind of kit you put on the car.

I had been wanting the roof spoiler ever since I saw it on the Expression website, but Expression doesn't sell it. It's strictly a MH-Dezent spoiler (even though they are sister companies - debatable if they are actually the "same" company). If I hadn't found it, I'd still have my "Lorinser style" roof spoiler. Main reason I liked it the best was because in just looking at the car from far away, it's not noticable, but once you're close up, it's a really agressive looking roof spoiler.
I think it normally costs 350-400, but I got it for less (Thank God, cuz I still had to pay for painting).

A lot of the sponsors for MBWorld sell the trunk spoiler. Check the Advertiser Index for all of them. Some of them are local, so you might even be able to find a place in L.A. that you can get one from.
There are definitely a lot of shops in L.A. that you can get one from.

Can you take off the spoiler once it's on? For example if I bought Carlsson and then want to switch back to AMG, can that be done? I use double-sided tape...
Or is it stuck on permanently..

If it's authentic Carlsson and the fitment is good (unlike mine, where I found out it wasn't authentic after the fact) and it's just double sided tape, there's no reason it shouldn't be able to come off later on, but...just have to be careful. Now, if a body shop uses extra product to stick it on your trunk (to make sure it doesn't fly off while you're driving), that's a different story.
