Everyone has their own taste and what they think looks good. To each his own but my view is, too rice looking for me.

Allow me to display it at the same angle as your CS wing slickman.

Not So ricey. But then again it might be relative to the year of the vehicle.

Just Sayin.

What a good wife, OP. It'll look great. If nothing else, you could plasti-dip the ends for the matte finish on the rest of the car. Imo, the wing's going to look really nice.

Well, I picked up the spoiler yesterday from the body shop. The color is perfect! The wing went on quickly but the old 3M tape was not so easy...I had to hit the trunk lid with the DA and some compound to get it right before I could install.

Looks great, Vixr. A decklid panel and taillight trim or something would look awesome to help beef it up to match the spoiler.

Awesome pics, VIXR. Think it looks great on your car.

If I may ask, I would be interested in your factory removal, if you are willing to part with it. If so, PM me with a price and where you are located. May be a decent road trip to come and get it. Will be the first road trip for my pony. I still have yet to drive her as I am not yet returned home from deployment. 4 more days and I'll be home, though!
