What's your favorite boot lid spoiler?

As I think BMW did a great job with the small lip boot spoiler which keeps to the fine lines of the M5, I've always loved a little more spoiler on my cars. I'm thinking of the idea of putting on a trunk spoiler.

I want to see what spoilers members think are the best ones?

It is, but I like the 3 piece ACS type rear spoiler. Very understated, in keeping with the nature of the car.

Hmm, not sure still if I want to mess with the look of the back of the car.
