BB Trunk swap?

Anyone want a BB trunk with OE spoiler? If you have a BB trunk minus the spoiler and you would like to swap then send me a PM.

Yup!

If and when I want to add my lip spoiler it will not cost extra money to get the holes filled and the trunk painted. Also if someone wants an OE spoiler they get it for free so it works for everyone.

I thought it looked naked without the spoiler so I bought the stock one.

So let me get this straight.
If I had a bare bone BB stock trunk top (if this is how you want to phrase it), you would swap it with your BB OEM rear spoiler installed trunk top?

I've been looking at some spoiler but maybe this is a better idea?
If what I am thinking is correct, can you post pics of your set up?

Yes. I want to swap my black trunk with OE spoiler with another black trunk without the OE spoiler.

Do you have a black trunk you want to swap with me

Cool. I've been just searching for OE spoiler and I have no idea how they're different than factory spoiler.
Is it relatively easy to detach and re-attach trunk?

The OE spoiler is the same as the factory spoiler.

I have not removed the trunk before but I assume a couple of bolts and a wire connector for the brake light and it comes off. I see you live in Beaverton as well. Anytime after 6pm M-F and anytime on the weekend. Let me know if you are serious and I will PM you my contact info

Here is a pic of my car with the OE spoiler.
