Yup, is it.. I had it painted glossy black because I didnt like the glossy silver/grey finish that it had.

haha Tony I know you only guessed this bc its the only thing I did to the last car that I am doing to this car so yes I am willing to reveal that before the car is complete.

Well here you have it guys, a Wald Rep spoiler from CarKing. The first one I purchased from Bayson R. The reason why I choose carking this time is bc Bayson R doesn't make it anymore. At least for the time being. I had to wait longer since it was international shipping. Differences are Bayson R had a hole where the emblem is, and it was heavier. Fitment was good for me on Bayson R's. Some had said they had a small gap on the corners. I cannot confirm how the fitment is on Car Kings yet since I currently have a OEM spoiler on my trunk ATM. I will begin hacking away at my trunk here within the next week or so. Overall the quality looks pretty good. With it being thinner its gonna save me some time with the molding process. I don't plan on raising my quarters this time just bc if I do ever get in another accident *knock on wood* or decide to sell and part out my car I will be able to do so. Instead I'm gonna shave off the corners on the spoiler to get it to match the quarters perfectly. Whatever fiberglass they used though stinks. I don't remember Bayson R's having a strange odor. The fitment whether its perfect or off won't matter to me anyways since I am going to be molding it but I figured some of you guys that are in the market for one and do not wanna waste so much money like me would want to know whether this replica is a good fit or not. I will have pictures of the build once everything is complete. Feel free to contact me if you have any questions.
