Trade- VR trunk lip w/ oem spoiler

Checking to see if anyone is interested on trading a red stock trunk for my trunk with OEM spoiler ($300 option). It must be in good condition without any spoiler added on. It's a direct trade so no money involved. I'm in Socal - Walnut / LA area. If you are interested, PM' me or email me at lorandy@gmail.com so we can work on it over the weekend. Thanks.

Krazie, My quess, he wants to get some other wing, and does not want the holes from the stsock wing in his trunk. so he is willing to trade for a trunk that has no holes yet.... just my guess

Great guess ^ yea that's the reason why I'd like to trade a stock trunk but I managed to get the MS wing fits right w/ the oem spoiler holes so I don't need to trade no more.

yes it does, but be warned that the stock wing has 3 holes, and the MS wing only has two. the third hole is under the MS wing, so you will not see it. also be warned that Kwescott did the stock/MS wing swap, and his paint was a little bugered up from the were the stock wing used to be.

(PM him if you need mroe details.) I am not trying to talk you out of it by any means, I am simply saying that you MIGHT notice the same paint scuff. (although it is more WAY mroe noticable on black paint) and you MIGHT want to consider still trying to get a non winged trunk............. oh screw it, I am making it out to be a bigger deal then it really is, just go for it! besides then you can sell your factory wing to help make up for the $1,000 MS wing. your gona love the MS wing. I know I love mine! the quality is next to none.

Thanks for the advice. Yea I managed to enlarge the holes a bit and now the wing sits close to perfect. There are some marks left from the stock wing as well but I guess can't really avoid that. Good thing I got the wing right before the price bumped up. Paid $806 shipped.

Car is too dirty to take pics. Maybe I'll take some this weekend after a wash.
