Thew, can you PM the price for a new OEM trunk lid. I would like to change spoilers and the holes from my OEM spoiler are going to cause a problem.

Does the lid come factory painted and without badges?

Thew,
yes I want a new OEM lid, not CF. Do they come painted? My car is titanium grey.
Also, do you know what the approx. cost would be?

ehh it should come painted, you just need to buy badges

hey thew, is the auto bahn trunk lid totally OEM shaped, or does the tip of it extend out a bit like a whale tale style spoiler? im not sure though but i want to put a rotary extreme Mazdaspeed replica wing on there if it is OEM shaped.

also have you seen any installs or anything? will it require complete trunk dissasembly and rewiring?

hey stealth I'm back

I've taken apart the trunk before...fortunately the wiring is very easy to do...I think the hardest part is just lining it up as you attach it...if you can have someone else help you great...if not just put some thick towels or a workshop barrier over the sides so they don't touch down on the rest of the car as you are installing it
