Thought I'd take "before an after" pics to show the difference. I'm not entirely happy with the fitment of my wing so i'm taking it back to the bodyshop for more grinding.
Also, the grinding left holes in the spoiler, did everyone else bondo the holes in? or did you just leave them?

I bondo'd the holes. First, I laid fiberglass resin/cloth, then smoothed everything out with body filler, next I sanded it all out, then finally sent it to body shop for primer and paint.

I got it from Transform spoilers. I had actually posted a thread about it, including the pricing, but it looks like it's been deleted!!! WTF?!?!?
Anyways I got a red LED light with it. Looks good!

Yeah it looked good from a distance, but up close the gap was obvious. I just got my car back from the bodyshop again. The wing fits MUCH better now :) woohoo!

Yeah I asked for red LED lights, and sure enough, he delivered! They're not just painted red either.

Both JSIR and myself store our cars in the winter. It makes for a long long winter season too. :(

everyone was driving like morons when we had like 9 inches 14 inches of snow, i drove the car like there wasnt any snow on the ground...got up hills, stayed @ good speeds, great traction...and this was with my stockie tires! :)

Is there anyone that makes a CTR replica wing that fits on USDM EP3s with no modifications?

BTW yours looks very nice!

and
I was speaking to Joey (JSIR), and said that if anyone decided to make replicas of an already modded wing, they'd make a FORTUNE!! Unfortunately I don't have ANY skills whatsoever with fiberglass. But somebody should really jump on this!!
