Got the 16"s for winter. Not many Audi's in ND... I'm unique!
I'm with you on the suspension. I've only got 20K miles on this car. Maybe when these struts are shot?
Or maybe just a 4.2....

I personally feel that even the subtle M5 spoiler gives the rearend
a crisper look. The tail of the A6 is a little bulbous to my eye and the spoiler gives the roundness a little visual break like what Audi did with the new A4 rear. It comes off very easily if you don't like it. I actually had installed mine too high on the trunk and had to re-apply it. Just uses #M 2-sided tape.

While, I like the look of the A6 with a small spoiler, I like it more without. I think
the rear end of an A6 is so different from others and that is part of what defines it's individuality. I love that nice sweeping radius on the back.

Questions...
I like the spoiler too. But I also agree with alfabutt the how nice the curve looks rounded.
How did you install it too high? Aren't you supposed to line it up with the top edge of your tailights? Or did you try that and it turned out to high?

Just do it!! I think the spoiler is understated and elegant and
if it was available 2 1/2 yrs ago, I would have used it instead of the Audi oem that's on it now.
Good Luck whatever your decision.

And I think it looks like a Fat lady's *** in need of a support device.
and that's coming from someone whose dad was a "meatpacker" ( a bra & girdle manufacturer)- No kidding!!
And no jokes that we lived off the fat of the land.
