indeed but it was more like a 'lucky' penny.

I got in on it because someone bought the entire kit n' it somehow got to me that he didn't like it...lol. Personally i've loved it since i saw it on FE3p's car like 5 years ago

you don't have to spend anything!

just do what i did and find someone on the forum or at a local meet that wants to do a straight swap for their white water pearl wing less trunk for yours. i swapped mine for free that way!

Sam, you know this because I told you. And because I see you 3 days a week. I only see Masked occasionally, but he AC's with me.

Also, I won't be at the AC this weekend, since someone decided to be careless and back into my car.
