@Deb10 stopped by with her 10 series yesterday morning, and we installed an OEM spoiler. It's been years since I installed a spoiler that required drilling, but the template that she purchased was top notch and made the installation a breeze.

She could have mad so much money off of that stock wingless trunk. I know people that would pay her to swap for a trunk with wings.

I was thinking that too.. I couldn't get anyone to trade trunks with me when I was looking at a wingless option for SWP.

Not a lot of 10 series floating around, though. It might have taken her forever to find someone with a spoiler that didn't want one.

Thanks again Darren, one of these days I'll get my own garage..

I've decided to try some head light polishers a try from automotive stores. Apparently there are some kits that work pretty good.

Exactly! I searched for someone with a 10 series wanting to swap, and considered other style spoilers. But didn't want to pay to have one painted and then not have it match exactly the special silver ignit10n paint. I also think the OEM spoiler accentuates the lines of the car very well.

Thanks again to Darren for helping me out and taking good care of my baby!

@Cooperdh stopped by today so Tyler could install his Tanabe DF210. @BRZPDX was on hand to chat him up a little.
