BTW the rear spoiler is optional

Considered their LM exhaust for my 550 but thought it might be too loud/harsh

I'd love to carry out their conversion on mine too. 550 is very heavy for trackwork, but still amazing fun. With their weight saving program and added power, it would be a delight.

You win the award for the most pointless miss informed SN thread of the year dude! LM Rarri - chav? WTF? 
Perhaps you're not familiar with the widely accept definition of what a chav is? It doesn't have anything to do with bespoke £100k+ Rarri's dude!
Spoilers offer downforce, nothing more nothing less they're nothing to do with fashion in their true and rightful form. Unless of course, you put a home made one on your front wheel drive Saxo (fill in your own alternative model here) which doesn't need downforce and never will.
GEEZ

I have nothing against spoilers, and as you say, they are there to provide downforce.
Who would not want to own and drive such a superb machine....
But...
The aftermarket look of this particular spoiler does in my opinion detract from the style of the car. It would not look out of place on the race track, but on the road is another issue.
It just reminded me of all the little nova's etc with stuck on go faster spoilers... in a tongue in cheek way
Please , no offence meant to any nova drivers on here

Of course the LM is hardly 'chav' but it certainly looks worse than the standard 550.

Sad confession

I kept up but it owed more to the traffic and the road (very twisty so few overtaking options!!) rather than any real Ferrari threatening performance on my or my car's part. When we overtook anything it made me feel slooow.
My wife thinks I am certifiable - or puerile - or both.
