Yo, whats up with the roof spoiler? Whats the verdict? How long of a wait? As you can see I'm real impatient. I want to see the final project. Hope you fitment issues are quickly resolved.

please be patient boys.
Unfortunately the spoiler is being produced in Hong Kong. The team has gone back to reworking the mold to fix the alignment issue. They are currently working on it. They have to get a 2002+ model for a day to make sure the mold matches the curvature of the rear window.
As soon as something comes up I will post with details. When it does arrive, the first thing I have to find is a heated garage to do the work in. It is going down to the 20s tonight.

the redesigned spoiler has entered the building.
Fitment will be this Saturday morning. I am so excited. In Hong Kong it was actually fit to the indentical car, so it should fit.
I will post pics if it looks like it will fit.

sad to report the second prototype did not fit either. The arc is too great for the back window and has to be taken in about 1/2 inch over the entire span.
We are working on it.

However, the chrome trunk bar, the 05 tails and the stainless steel brakes lines have arrived.
