Hey ppl! was wandering if anyone with a BLue rx8 with a trunk with no spoiler would be willing to trade trunks with me? Mine has the factory optional spoiler on it. If anyone is willing to do this i would really appreciate and let me know so we can set-up a time to do it, Thanks again!

 

Oh ya and Im in San Antonio so please try to be in that are as well :D

 

Oh wow... this is actually a great idea.
If anyone in dallas wants a free spoiler and drives a winning blue... im also willing to trade trunks.

Oh, sorry for imposing on your thread mindtrip. I think we live far enough away that we wont steal eachothers potential trunks.

 

I'm your man! I want my spoiler!

Oh but.. remember that I had wrecked my car a while back and although the trunk lid is brand new, it was painted at a shop. Wonder what you think now.

Blue

 

So anyone willing to trade with me?

 

Sup blue... thanks for the offer, but i think im going to pass. I'm going to try and hold off for one that is factory painted. SORRY

 

Anyone

 

????

 

I don't have one...but i'm curious why you're looking for it.

 

He probably wants a different spoiler, and maybe a trunk lid with no holes.

 

Liquid,
Yeah, Jenkins is correct. I need a trunk lid with no holes so i can upgrade spoilers. My current trunk and spoiler are in great condition. I have been meaning to send you a PM about this, but have been swamped. If your interested... let me know.

Why do u keep jacking my thread?

 

Its a Dallas thing they do it to everyone . At least they are keeping your thread up at the top.

Have you tried talking with a dealer that has used 8s about trading trunks lids for a small fee? If I remember right you take care of your car so you would have a mint lid to offer them. Just a thought

 

hehe...it is a dallas thing...and we're damn good at it.

 

Around how much do they charge?

 

I would do it... but like I told Harry (BigOLundh)...

Mine has been shop painted to match ... IMO it's not exactly the same color
(it never is) but the offer is there if u want. I'll be willing to drive there.

 

Ooh, road trip!!!

 

Thanks for the support people. I found someone to swap trunks with, and who is also going to buy my complete appearance package. YAY! He's getting a good deal on the appearance package, and im getting a trunk. Works out for everyone..

Also.. bump for Mindtrip. I think he's still looking.

-hS

 

Shoot I didn't know you were selling your appearance package!

I've been looking for one... anybody know where I can get a used one? I'm too cheap to pay full price.

 

Yeah, i have been planning to sell it since im getting a different kit. I probably could have sold it for a lot more, but since the person coming for the trunk swap is driving a long distance... i decided to part with it for pretty cheap.

-Sorry

 

I'm looking to buy an 8. However, I prefer the look of them with out a spoiler, but with the appearance package. A lot of the cars I end up finding not surprisingly have the spoiler installed with the appearance package.

I figure if I get a car with a spoiler I could just swap the rear trunk hatch with someone who has an 8 that wants a spoiler (with the same color of course).

How hard would this be to do? Would it just be a matter of unbolting one and bolting on the other? Or would it be a bit more involved?

easy to do with simple hand tools...and someone to help you lift the trunks.

hard part is finding someone to swap out trunks (of the same color)

 

Well since I'd pretty much do it for free I imagine it wouldn't be to hard to find someone that would want to swap for a $200 option.


Eric

 

I'll take a trunk with a spoiler if its VR

 

Looking for someone willing to trade trunks. I have the titanium grey w/ factory spoiler, looking for titanium grey without the spoiler. And I'm willing to commute up to 7 or 8 hours to make the swap. Hit me up if interested. And my trunk is in like new condition, no scratches/dings/fading etc..
