Default Megan Racing roof spoiler, trunk spoiler, and even springs

I was just checking out the Megan Racing web site and while at the site I noticed that they have some reasonably priced roof and trunk spoilers for the LS. They even have a set of dirt cheap springs. I dont think I would would put a set of $150 springs on my LS but its cool to know there are some options for aero parts. The spoilers in the picture dont look half bad. Just wanted to give you guys a heads up in case you were interested in any of these parts. Megan Racing is looking better and better.

I am a bit tempted by the spoilers. They look decent.

The lowering springs drop more in the back than the Tanabe's. Thats a plus.

I'm wondering how the ride quality would compare to stock, sonfar feedback from tans be users has been close to stock ride quality. But if it's evenly lowered in the back won't it just look like the front is still higher?

I was thinking the same thing. Sounds like it may look odd

This too. The pics of them by themselves you can clearly see the weave but I can't tell wether they are painted or not on the car ??

I was also wondering if they were painted. The pic on the car does look like it has been painted a matching obsidian. Thinking about calling or emailing to ask.

I doubt they come painted... But it doesent hurt to ask.
I did find some decent looking rear windshield spoilers on ebay, they even come painted for under $200.
my 2 cents
