WTT: 05 VR trunk with spoiler for 05 trunk w/o spoiler

05's only! the body shop showed me there are 3 different shades of VR, so we have to get a reasonable paint match here. im in maryland, i dont care where you drive from. but the paint has to match up before we can do the swap. so if you drive from PA and my VR is a shade darker, no deal.

the only reason im considering this again is that it'll cost me $1200 at my body shop (who i highly recommend, mr. spoiler) to debadge and despoiler my car. thats more money than i have, but i really dont want the spoiler anymore. i think i'll just touchup paint the emblems.

04,06,07,08,09 are WELCOME to try, but i think the success margin is slimmer. but hey.. free spoiler.

the spoiler is in good condition. 1 rock chip on the trailing edge. dont ask me how it got there. paint is in good condition, i wash my car with a soap that has carnuba wax in it and the swirlies are kept to a minimum because i change cloths pretty often. looking for something similar. if there is a genuine interest i'll post pics.

i was going to use a pantone color sheet.

you have a good idea, but hold 5 pieces of paper from different sources. they are going to be different shades of white or very light yellow.
