Default Custom-made 3-piece VIP trunk spoiler finally installed.
Well...I had this piece for over a year....finally installed after getting my trunk holes (from OEM style trunk spoiler) patched...and re-painting the trunk.

What you all think?

Pete

Looks good! How much did it cost you to plug up those holes? That spoiler is custom? Any shots from other angles?

Patching holes and re-painting was $350. I did all the removal and re-installation myself. I basically gave the shop only the trunk to work with.

I'd like to see more pics of your car. Your mod list has a lot of good taste.

Looks like a Junction Produce spoiler on steroids.

The center portion of the wing sticks off the rear of the trunk
further than a genuine JP does.

Looks pretty good! Would like to see profile shots...
