Spoiler just arrived here at the office!!

That's great!

[grantman240z]

That's great!

Took it by a few places this afternoon for some paint/installation quotes...everyone is around $200-$250 since it needs to be re-sanded and re-primered. =(

Hopefully I will have better luck tomorrow!

Wow, my bodyshop only quoted me $100.

Don't ask for installation.. it's really simple and only takes 5min

The body shop will try to upcharge it.

Breakdown of the quote was only 30min worth of labor. Going to try another shop or two and see what they say.

[Kenrik]

30 min of labor?

That would mean they are charging $400 - 500 an hour..

I was saying the breakdown of the quote was for only 30minutes of labor for installation...the rest was for the sand, re-primer, and paint.

[Forge]

can i get a tracking number for mine?

[Kenrik]

Forge did you get my email? I replied within 10 minutes of your payment.

I have to wait for the E-Check you sent to clear before I can mail it.if it had been sent as a normal Paypal it would have shipped the same day.

E-checks take 3-5 business days to clear. I'm still waiting.

[Forge]

I didnt, stupid company spam filters take everything, and finding one e-mail out of the 200-300 i get a day sucks.

Not sure why it wouldnt go through like nromal, i used my normal paypal account. Oh well, sounds liek it wont be here by friday.

[chonmoreno]

YES spoiler came in! it looks pretty good...i'll get quotes tomorrow.....any luck with the other guys getting quotes/ installation and what not? pointers? etc...

[chonmoreno]

i finally went around to get some quotes so heres what i got:1. $150 for just paint.2. $250 paint and installation.3. $100 for paint.

I went in the Lake Forest Area, CA the expensive place #2 told me that a guy just walked in right before me with the exact same spoiler but no way $250 is way too much. I ended up getting the quote for $100 at carsmetics I will post up pics soon, i will drop it off on monday and get it by wednesday the latest.

Hey grantman it must have been you the one that took it to the expensive body shop, so i suggest you go to carsmetics over in lake forest on El Toro and Jeronimo...If you want you can wait to see how mine turns out. Hope that helps.

[Kenrik]

I want to see it installed!! I don't even have one for myself yet.. I'm selling them as I make them.

Maybe I can set aside one for myself soon LOL.

Mine is already done and painted by Mission Viejo Auto Collision...my mechanic talked to the owner and got me taken care of. I am swinging by tomorrow for the installation.

[Forge]

Got mine on Saturday.

One problem - the main panel is about 1/2 shorter than the trunk. Not sure why or my peice just wasnt cut right or what. Centered up, there is a gap big enought ot put my pinky finger in. Definatly not what was pictured.....

I have to take it by the body shop later this week to see if they can do anything to make it look right, but im guessing its going to cost me an arm and a leg. Might be cheaper for me to just by the original.

Can you help? or am i just screwed?

[chonmoreno]

mine is the same way, the center piece is a tad bit too short about 1/2 an inch as well. but it's all good;other than that the fitment is great.

[grantman240z]

Yeah centerpiece on mine was short too...was hoping for a closer fit like the one on the yellow G...we will see how it looks when I pick up my car in a bit.

[Kenrik]

The mold was made from the original. So buying the original will not help because it's exactly the same size.

trust me, fitment on the original is terrible. That is why people usually mold them into the trunk

i was trying to see the fitment once again and if you put the center piece a little closer to the edge of the trunk and the side parts a little over the tail lights, then the gap gets smaller, i guess that's how it's supposed to go. The other way if u put the side pieces along the line that outlines the tail light, and then align the center piece to them..then i get that 1/2 inch gap. We'll see once i get it installed, i just dropped it off today to get it painted.

[grantman240z]

I went buy to pickup my car...but the urethane cracks started to come through over the weekend so they are going to repaint and urethane-seal the spoiler. I won't have it back till Friday =(

yes the side pieces are supposed to overlap the lights.. check the instructions that I included.
