Holy ****...I was exploring the option of having duckbill spoiler (Molded to oem trunk)
Do you know what a ballpark cost would be?.......CF trunks are soo sexy that I feel like pulling the trigger on one and just dealing with adjustments..Might cost around the same as Molding in spoiler,repainting trunk,etc...

You could buy one of IONIC's rear spoilers and have it molded into your OE trunk. Ya gotta find a bodyshop that's got the talent to do the job right and inquire about cost....Gary

the guy had two choices to pick from so I picked one. I've been done with that company for over a year now. regardless of the past the part fits well & I'm simply offering my advice to a fellow for member.


I'm surprised you're still hanging around as well

Do I dare answer and "support" strafe? Some people on here crack me up.

Ams/k2 is the same as far as I know. It fits fine out the box w. Proper adjustment of course. However, those who desire OEM fit I'd recommend molding an aftermarket spoliler onto an oem trunk.

Pm me if you want - I dont mind giving my 100% honest opinions on parts.

Yeah they thought enough of me to make me a mod so I thought I'd stay for a while.

Good to see you're spouting the same old passive-aggressive BS whether you're "associated" with Strafe or not. I guess things haven't changed that much for you eh? Since I don't have a desire to re-create the past this will be my last post in this thread.
