There is always a few kicking around on ebay. I last saw one go that I was biddin on for 23 dollars. NUTS! and should have jumped on it. It requires some shaving and such, but is well worth the look!;)

www.renovaauto.com has them for $160 shipped, if you live nearby you can pick it up for $120. Its prefitted, but not painted, so you'd have to do that by yourself, and as far as installing it, all you have to do is drill one little hole in the middle for the wires for teh brake light.

i got mine from http://spoilerdepot.com - it comes painted. the only body mod on mine is the wing (click the signature)...

I would highly reccomend Renova Auto. Fits Great with no modification and i got mine for $140 shipped... just do a search for them on ephatch and you can see test fit pics and get their email and stuff like that... I can send you some pics of mine if you want, just PM me.

$130 + mod + paint = $?

sorry, i was comparing prices of spoilerdepot to other wings that seem cheaper... if you start with a cheap wing and add up the costs they all end up around $250-$300. that was my point.

I got my wing shipped from from Renova for $140... Then got it painted for $208.50... so total of $348.50. I know the painting was a little more than other places but it was a convient place so i didnt mind paying a little more. Its about the same price as the Spoiler Depot wing but the fit is so much better... I sure someone could get the paint job for cheaper but I perfer this wing...

my spoilerdepot wing fits pretty darn good in my opinion! the gap between your wing and the body (in pic#2) seems larger than mine, but not by much...

Yea, your wing looks really nice. You got a good one. I have just seen a lot of Spoiler Depot wings that fit like crap. There are a good number of horror stories on here too. That is why I went with Renova Auto. I did not want to take that gamble. Im glad that you got a great wing. Looks awesome!

I dont really mind the gap because once it is on when it is painted, It wont even be noticeable espically cuz its black.

Im happy... :D

Got my renova wing last weeek, paid $50 for paint and clear coat and paid my friend $50 to paint. The fit is great and the install is a breeze. So I am very happy with the wing.

The foam that came with mine wasnt double sided..

It was sticky on just one side...

I belive it is the weather stripping to keep water and other stuff out. I just put it around the screw holes to keep water out from them. I did not want to put it around the whole wing cuz i want the wing to be as flush as it can be with the hatch... Im also gonna get some double sided foam pieces to attatch to the bottom tips of the wing to the hatch so it dosent bounce off the glass when i close the hatch. It also will keep it solid.

Here are some pics of the placement i did with the weather stripping....

I put the foam around the edges at the lower part of the wing where it has contact with the glass. At first I put it at the top part of the wing near where the bolts are at, but the wing wouldn't sit flush so I just took it off.
