Mid-rise spoiler
I am not sure of the brand of spoiler it is since it came on my last car and the owner I bought it from didn't remember. What I do know is that I have yet to see another one exactly like it.
Like I stated before it looks a lot like the WW spoiler, but it has a lip to it on the rear which really adds to its appearance I think. Instead of the thinner design on the WW it has a bit of thickness to it which I really liked.
I looked it over and I would say its a 7.5 out of 10, but I am extremely picky when it comes to appearance stuff. It has swirl marks from washing in it that might come out with a good wax job or buff. I didn't try it since I am not one to try and hide something when I sell it. I want the buyer to be happy and relieved instead of pissed because something bad was downplayed. Like I said before it has ZERO cracks in it and the paint is in pretty good condition.
Here are the downsides. There is a small chip in the paint on bottom on the pass inside of the spoiler where it meets the trunk lid. It more than likely would NEVER be seen with a little spot of touch-up paint but I still want the buyer to know its there. There are also some marks on the front edge of it that again MAY come out with a decent color wax or buff but I make no guarantee's. They aren't noticeable from more than 3 ft away though. Also, somewhere along the line something brown left a series of VERY small scratches in the clear along the rear edge, again only noticeable within a couple feet, if that. I just want to make sure that I point out all the little details and imperfections so a buyer isn't surprised.
I have more pictures besides the ones in the gallery, and more can be taken just let me know what you want to see- just give me an email address I can forward them too.
Now for the price- Again, I looked a long time to try and figure out the brand of spoiler it is and couldn't find it. I do know that it is a high quality piece that doesn't have any waves in it that you can get with some low-end stuff. I would like to see $150 for it and we can figure out shipping. I am willing to meet within a reasonable distance but that can be discussed later. Shipping costs will be paid by the buyer and I will only charge exactly what it is-nothing more, nothing less- none of that $10 to ship a $2 decal stuff you see on Ebay.
Some pics are in my garage gallery, click below to see them.

Well originally I wanted to put it on the new car but I grew to like the 3 piece more and more and I wanted this car to be a little different than the last one.
V6- that would work out best, it only takes about 20 minutes to put it on, 4 bolts is all that hold it.
Mike- If its still around I'm sure we can work something out-
I'll try and dig out some pics of it on my old car, my computer crashed a while ago along with my parents, (Gotta love Dell) so all the pics were lost. I think I have some around somewhere though-
