I think it already comes painted in Whiteout, so that's a plus for me.
hahaha right!? i love my car and all but its really starting to hurt my bank account! lol im glad you like the spoiler! and yes! if youre gonna do something do it the right way. (drill it in)

Any prototype pictures?

I love the idea of molding the JDM TRD unit to the trunk to remove that tacked on look, but it appears hard due to how close it mounts to the edges of the trunk lid.

it looks as if someone took the brz limited spoiler and flatten the top of it.
