Not talking about the molded Walsh spoiler itself. We are talking about the quarter panels raised to match the spoiler so there's no drop. An idea I got from Sffd. Him being the first to have it done. And me being the second doing it myself

I've seen a few but if you pay close attention and actually read what was written. It wasn't a molded Wald, it was that the rear quarter panels were raised to be flush with the Wald. Instead of having a 1/2" drop.

Well I can't take credit for that cause I've seen a few on CL. Looks like you're doing a nice job. Is it all bondo or how did you raise it?

I'm curious how much you paid to get that done? I spent about 120 when I did just my trunk and another 220 when I did my quarters. Would've been less if I had done it all the first time. But having to buy more materials and paint, plus I ended up respraying half of my car pretty much

I never said you didn't give me credit or that I wanted any. I merely posted because its supposed to be "One Off Mods." I just thought it was funny that you posted....here's my one off mod, but I know one other member on here who has done this. To me, then it's not one off! Just saying as far as my rear debadged completely, I didn't know nmPeter and HKS350 had that as well. That's why I changed mike to shaved Wald trunk spoiler. It's all good man.

well credit should always be given where credit is due. As I said you were the first 2IS I had seen the molded wald on. Originally my plan was to just get the oem, and I posted here bc like I said you're the only other guy I know that has it done and I was simply proud that I was able to accomplish this job. But I wasn't asking how you had it done. I was just curious how much a body shop would charge to do this type of work? As you know I am not a professional body man. Just a DIY junkie

Have you ever seen a molded oem spoiler? It actually looks nice! I like it better than my Wald because i don't have raised quarters. It's like a baby Wald, i'm thinking about doing it.
