One of the main other reasons is fitment. I'd like to be able to return the car to stock if i chose to sell the parts off. So any spoiler has to use the OEM location points.
There will be a gazillion holes and the duckbill will not cover/use all of these holes. Work will be required to plug what you will not use if you decide to go with the DB spoiler.

Here's how mine came out. Done.

Looking good!!
Do you have any close up pics of your FI exhaust? How many inches are the tips tucked into your Nismo bumper?

It is tucked in there pretty good so it needs a longer tip running about 1.5 to 2 inches (maybe more from the top because of the angle. The strange thing is on BeemaaZ car, his FI exhaust hangs out just right. I don't get why. When I had the regular bumper, it stuck out just the right amount.
