Default Differences between CF and "CF"?

I was thinking about buyin CF spoiler for my hatch. I was wondering what differences in quality/looking are between:

CF Spoiler from JDMShit (210$ shipped)
http://www.jdmshit.com/parts/e...l.jpg

and CF Spoiler from EBAY (100$ + shipping)
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...&rd=1

?? Anyone has one of these? Does it fit well? Does it look good?

thats what I was asking for - thx.

One more question. If you buy for exapmle CF Hatch from VIS and CF hatch spoiler from other good company and you will take a close look on both parts - are there any differences in appearance of this two CF parts? You know, tint or carbon cloth bit different?

There is a difference between the VIS and JDMshit CF wings. The VIS wing slopes up more than the JDMshit one.
EDIt: Sorry, that's for the EG wings, I just noticed you were talking about EK wings.

I thought some of the CF products are actually FG body with one layer of CF skin; where the other is all CF layed.

PM'd
but to answer your question, it totally depends on the company, but i have a VIS hatch and a spoon duckbill and the weave is different but thats it but its not like they sit next to each other like c/f hood and fenders so you wouldnt be able to tell even if they had 2 different colorings to them... my setup looks great so i wouldnt worry about buying from 2 different companies

Do a search for recent threads that have to do with carbon fiber wings or duckbills on the EG. I saw photos comparing JDMShit to VIS, and I was totaly impressed with the tight tollerances of JDMShit's products.

Oh wait, I found it. Look at all the pics on every page...

I just find it hard to believe that a $100 ebay one would be of any decent quality.
