i was able to man handle both spoilers. they are quite different but both seem very good quality.

the vorsteiner is much heavier, and quite rigid, because i believe the way it is built is that the CF is overlaid onto fiberglass.

the brabus, is much lighter, and thinner, its pure CF in its design
it doesnt have the fiberglass....i dont know if thats good or bad but i guess because of its design thats how it is

i want to see a real brabus and gary @sunveers version of thebrabus in person for comparison.

These are at jl motors. The owner James seems pretty knowledgeable and good Guy. If there is a few of us interested maybe we can seek a group buy

I like Vorsteiner because its more flush to the bottom lines of the car... I ran the Vor lip on my E63:

if you plan on lowering the car, pay close attention to how low the front will be, then figure how much lower it'll be when you add the front lip.

not gonna lower it, even if it looks better, when the car is moving it doesnt matter

rather not have to deal with lowering issues, ride quality etc....ill just salivate at others cars
