Looking good Ross! I'm liking it with the MS wing but it is hard to beat a clean trunk. I keep going back and forth with adding a lip and or spoiler.

I keep going back and forth too, except I have 6 holes on my trunk lid

Yeah I always thought 20% was never enough, and regretted not getting 5% all around, or 10%. As long as the police in your area are lenient than I would get 10% or at max 15%.

I went 30% so cops wouldnt give me a hard time. Sometimes it looks nice when its cloudy but when its sunnny i kinda wish i went darker. Oh well whats done is done. Maybe one day i will redo my tints.

As for your dilema. Flip a coin LMAO

the trunk holes can be spendy to fix. just depends on the body shop rates. the few places by me charge a lot. $900+ to weld and paint.

It would totally be worth it to get Phren's trunk and have it debadged/painted. It cost me $100 to have my trunk debadged.

Yeah but if I ever sell the car, I think I'll want to attach the OEM spoiler. So I don't want to weld & paint the stock trunk...

Good idea, except I'm broke and about to move cross country hehe. But that would be worth it... I could weld the holes shut myself and sand and prep it, so it would probably be $200 for a good paint job

It took me a long time to find someone. I got lucky because the guy was trading in his car.

Your wing wouldn't work on many other rx8s.
