WTB: Mazdaspeed Replica Spoiler

Hey guys, I'm looking forward to buying a mazdaspeed replica spoiler. I am just wondering if anyone has a good prior experience with one and can provide me a link for one? Thanks in advance.

be careful with some of those replicas, I've seen a couple in person and I can tell you that some of them fit TERRIBLY! I have authentic MS wing and the difference is quite obvious.

I think the painted replicas are somewhere around $500.

why not just get the real deal for a little more? (Authentic MS comes painted)

shut up!




update to my post.... I was looking at the primered price, turns out the painted ones are still pricey.
dnstan: the replica might still be the best cost friendly route to take on this. Just make sure you take it to a good body shop in case they need to do some work to get it to sit flush.
Also, double check the brackets on the wing, some replicas use cheap materials and I've heard of some of the brackets breaking.

Honestly.... I've seen both.... MS Rep & the Auth MS.... Factor to think of... Auth. MS is much heavier than Rep... (of course more money too)... Fittment is not perfect but again it's up the bodyshop.... Replica is lighter, cheaper but fittment is not as good as Auth... (keep in mind, u only paid about half the price) but if Ebay VS. VIS...? I go VIS, just my thought.... Hope that helps u decide....
