Don't mean to thread jack, but does anyone know how difficult it is to remove the OEM spoiler and what is left on the trunk after it's removed (screw holes, etc)

(Spoiler in question)

I think it's fairly easy to remove, but there will be holes. You could possibly look into trading trunk lids with someone who doesn't have a factory spoiler, but wants one.

I almost bought that one off ebay too, it looks like it's good quality! But got this one instead, it's different but I like it. I'm having it painted now.

Hey Blue Dream, you don't need to worry about LS since I have the same color. I also confimed with the seller before I ordered and he said no problem with painting LS.

I'd suggest you confrim the width with the seller prior to ordering. And please post the given demension since we have two differnet sellers on ebay.

Larry

I was told 1185mm by the seller (46.65"), I measured and got just over 45" as well.

I contacted the seller and asked if they could make the spoilers requested lengths. They said yes, any length is possible. So I measured my trunk again and am going to order one that's 1147 mm or 45.1" wide. That will fit and cover the trunk from seam to seam and leave a little, I mean little, space on each side. I don't want any hanging over the edges of the trunk.

I'll let you guys know how it looks when it comes in. Probably won't be for over a week so be patient.

If you have a request a different length will they charge you extra for it? If so, how much? I am also interested in purchasing one of these.

Hell yeah, I ordered mine today. It didn't cost any extra for custom length or paint, I just specified what length I wanted and what color by paint code in Pay Pal. Bought this one:


http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...m=270388772091

Cracks me up looking at the picture at the top of the listing. Obviously that's a coupe, but the interesting thing to me is the car has a silver Longhorn emblem on the back left of the trunk. And this company ships from Taiwan. Can anyone say "Meant to be"?

Way cool if you ask me!!
