Stock sport spoiler, stock T2 wing, or a Wangan spoiler. That's the only 3 I've thought looked good on most FC's. Since you are more show than go, Sport spoiler would be the way to go probably. They look really nice, and theoretically will give better aero and mileage than the others due to the lower profile.

no all you need is some vortex generators on it. like the back of the evo roof. the roof spoiler will provide some downforce but the wind going over it will be turbulent and cause too much drag so you use those generators to smooth out the airflow. it would probably do more than most rear spoilers unless they were way tall like for instance the AMS time attack EVO.

Obviously it will create some down force, since there will be a low pressure zone below it and a high pressure zone above it.
As far as those vortex generators are concerned, they only work correctly if they a placed, in the proper location and orientation.
IDK as far as I am concerned, 99.99% of the time this **** is just "rice bling"

I dunno about that kit man, it's a little out there 
FC's don't really take to crazy styling like that, you want something less angly looking if you want a nice clean looking show car. But I guess in the end it's your car and money, so if you like how it looks, get it and don't worry what others like. Just be ready to take some ribbing over it

The second one does look supra-ish...but it looks alright. I mean, it wouldnt be my choice...but its not as horrid as the bench.
I personally would go with either an Amemiya wing, the stock one, or make my own GT style wing...but thats only because I have all the tools to do it.
Personally I dont like that body kit...except for the front bumper and the rear spoiler...and the bumper wont fit my car since I have an S4. It just doesnt catch my eye in a good way.
I made my own hood vent on a stock hood...If you want I can put some pictures up, its pretty chill. Much mo betta than the one in that kit to my eye. Radiator temp drops from ~170 to about 120~ at freeway speed. Without a fan. Even city driving, no fan, I run lower than 180.
