jenkins-crew, slims8, and dazygirl415 all have replica MS kits I believe. I believe that dazygirl is the only one that has the sides and the wing though. I'd ask them. I think the replica MS sides that they have actually look better than the real thing.

Thanks Jaguargod! I guess I should be looking in this section more often.

Side skirts were bought from rotaryextreme.com. I'm not sure of the price, but they're urethane and I think they're fairly cheap. My rear bumper is stock with the OEM rear flares. I did a quick search on the color code and found A39. The wing is from carsoption.com for about $229.

NgoRX8 has the MS wing and he's had issues with it.

Odd. I've had mine since June of last year and I haven't had any problems with the brackets or the wing. What kind of "force exertion from the trunk" are they referring to? Opening and closing it?

And I can vouch that the MS side skirts are crap. The white pegs that help hold it firm to the body keep breaking off. May as well just go with the replica.

Just because it costs the same to have replicas painted as it would be to buy the original doesn't mean that they're bad... That's a poor decision on your part.

Mine broke as well. Had to find something at a hardware store that was made a little better.
