Yes, my does. it is near the very top end of the rear window but not noticeable unless you look up extremely close (i.e almost kiss the rear windows ). If you didn't ask, I doubt I would ever check it out.

I bought the rear trunk spoiler from ebay, installed it and it looks great. I don't notice any color difference (silver) and it seems to hold very well. Only time will tell!

Funny coming from someone that runs Megan suspension... and I'm willing to bet that 8K HID is not an authentic Philips/Osram bulb either.

Megans a legit company? Wth? I run b/c coils now if you read. I knew some smart *** had some remark to say. I ran garax bulbs as well. All parts of which are of great quality. And the subject was on a roof spoiler/aero parts such as lip kits and spoilers

phillips doesnt offer 8k in d4s either baka

well as a 17 y/o student in year 11, im greatful for copies for small things like spoilers, and will be purchasing this, maybe the bundle with the trunk spoiler aswell, any one have it installed?? (the ebay truck spoiler)

but i would never buy a ebay full bodykit or exhaust, rather a HKS Hi Power

if replicas didn't exist, we would see a lot more stock cars around. i can't decide which is better.

I'm fine with those, if it fits like a glove, paint in great condition and looks exactly like stock... I have no problem and actually planning to get one my self. It's your car get what ever you want, who cares what anyone else thinks, as long as your happy with it.

Wow lucky, yours was quick. Mine is set to arrive Thurs after ordering it couple weeks ago. Aha you figure since I'm located closer than the mainland, that mine would have came in earlier.

I got mine from oem.thing on EBay. BTW, I'm medium height and trying to figure out how to install it. Did you guys have a helper, or just installed it from the side of the car? I would think you would want to start from the middle and work your way to the ends. I don't want to damage the trunk if I get on it. So what did you guys do? Especially the short ones...LOL
