Default Difference in JDMshit's Spoon duckbill wings ('new steeper design' vs regular)

I really can't tell a difference at all from the pictures they have on their site. So, does anybody have any comparision of these two? Maybe some side by side pictures or some more pictures of the newer steeper design perhaps.

Here is their info:

Here are some pics from JDMshit.com...

Regular, old? style...


New steeper design...




Honestly though, from those pics and the angle of the picture of the new design.. I really can't tell how much steeper it is from the older style...

You could tell its not the spoon, by the material. Its so damn thick!

This is what its suppose to look like.





Edit: This is what it should look like on the car.

uneven gap and the rear edge, the front is angled below the line of the roof, the gap between the body and the wing is bigger than i'd like to see


pretty much....i'd not pay more than $150 for a wing of that caliber...and if that's all i could get, i'd bypass that and just get a fiberglass one i could MAKE fit better

you do know that the wing goes up with the hatch glass. There is need for space to pivot...
