HAHA I just got that today! I like it I personally... think it looks better in person and I think carbon fiber is a perfect match on my car. the chargespeed one has shorter fins than the one posted above I have seen both in person and prefer the longer fins of the kakumei ones.

depends what kind of opinion you are asking for-- for function.. supposedly rear diffusers "soften" the downforce on the rear wing helping to keep the front end from lift-- i imagine the idea is because our cars are a lil front heavy-- thus the spoiler... with the diffuser it makes sense... but i would thing just adding a front lip(functional one) would be better...

Actually, I read that...
These thingies (and the one on the '06 STI) are meant to push more of the airflow over the big spoilers to make them more functional. If I were to get one I would pick up the same one that the STI has because it is already tested to work with the STI wing...it's like they go together hand in hand.
I don't think these fins would work as well with our car's aerodynamics.
