Hey there, I just bought my first 8 and I really wanted the OEM wing but couldn't find one. If anyone has a whitewater pearl trunk with wing I would love to trade my trunk for it. I live in boulder and I'm willing to drive as far south as colorado springs to meet. Thanks for looking!

Stay wingless. Looks better on the WWP. Or add a lip like I did. Check out the pics in my profile.

How much is the installation for the spoiler though? I've thought about getting one for my 8 but the installation is holding me back.

Super easy to do if you get an OEM one, it comes with paper templates. You just tape them to your trunk, center punch the marks, then remove the template & drill four holes to the correct size. Go slow with the drill, I recommend using a unibit. It makes clean holes. Then bolt the spoiler on. The OEM one even comes with heavier duty trunk shocks.

Drilling into my trunk makes me nervous, but that's definitely good to hear...you can get brand new OEM spoilers on ebay for $80 shipped. Would definitely add a lot to the car...hmmm

Forgot to mention....drill small pilot holes first, then enlarge holes to correct size with unibit. Also put something to cover the trunk from shavings, like garbage bags. The hole size is slightly larger so you can adjust the spoiler to make it straight.
