Unpainted Mazdaspeed rear wing

Hey guys,

I'm about to order the authentic MS wing, but I think I'd like to get the unpainted one, since it would save me almost $300. I can have it painted for much less than that, but I wanted to get opinions from others that have gone that route. I'm assuming the spoiler is prepped for painting out of the box, but how difficult is the paint job, considering you have the risers in the way? I realize these would be taped off, but I'm just not sure if there are little nooks and crannys in between them that might make the job a little more challenging.

Thanks in advance.

if you're ordering it new then it's already disassembled. Just paint and put it together

Nice! I didn't know how much actually came apart. That makes it easy, thanks for the info!
