That looks sooo much nicer! Thanks for the write up!

I want a larger wangan-style version of this..

Jive Turkey · 10-18-2012, 05:55 PM

i cna't decide if i liek this wing as idk if its aggressive enough like the trd/5axis. but this is great because i have the limited wing and no oen around here has wingless trunk i cna swap for becuase no one has galazy blue. if anyone else has other pictures of htis wing please post up!

and what does this cost, and does it come paint matched?

I think I'd much prefer for the back portion to be a tad higher. Otherwise, this would be perfect for me.

Thanks for the write up. Nicely done!

Am I the only one who, even though they know it's super sticky, doesn't trust tape? I would be checking every time I got out of the car.

Such a good looking spoiler though. I want that one.

ever try to remove emblemsor body mouldings? While they are smaller they aren't coming off on their own. This is the same type of tape. Its not coming off if applied correctly. I've been debating between this spoiler and TRD/ViS but I'm leaning towards this now. I like that you don't have to drive holes. Anyone know how the color match is with Whiteout?

Any noticeable weight difference between the spoilers?

Selvedge · 01-07-2013, 11:19 PM

@Draco-REX I have a stupid question: how do you remove the trunk liner? As in, how do you pop off the plastic rivets?

The CARSMO is maybe a pound lighter if I remember correctly. The stock spoiler is very light as-is; there's no appreciable weight savings for doing this.

There's a center pin to the fastener. Use a flat bladed screwdriver and carefully pop out the center pin. You don't have to pull the pin out, just enough so it's loose, then you can pop the whole fastener out.

Tip: If you try to hold the pin all the way out as you pry, you'll have difficulty. Keep the pin at about halfway between all the out and all the way in and the fastener will come out a lot easier.

how long did this whole process take you?

Not counting the car wash, maybe an hour. It's really simple to do. Just pay attention to the details.
