Molded Decklid/ Spoiler - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

TurtleFactory · 03-04-2013, 02:12 PM

In the near future, we will be releasing a fully molded FRS/BRZ/86 Trunk lid with molded duckbill lip spoiler (see below for concept images).

The question we have for you as a community, is what would you be willing to pay for an item like this?

The initial run will be made of fiberglass, and we will have them available painted to match the color of your car, or primered/ ready to paint.

So the question is how much would you be willing to pay for the Fiberglass version of this decklid? We want to set a price point that will be reasonable for everyone.

Thank you for your input!

that's a little too much. I prefer the CSL style trunk from Seibon. But i prefer that flush look rather that sticking the 5ad spoiler on or something like that

I've been waiting for a fiberglass trunk. But that spoiler is a little too much. I'd like the same shape that my 5AD spoiler adds. I'd be willing to pay ~$500 for an excellent quality piece not including paint. The Seibon cf trunk is $800, so I'm using that as a basis.

Thank you for the feedback! These are early concept sketches from last year. The final product will be a little bit less aggressive.

Enraged21 · 03-04-2013, 02:47 PM

the side profile would definitely look nice though

when you ask people how much they are willing to pay for something, people will always choose the lowest price.

stilletto · 03-04-2013, 03:06 PM

Anywhere between $500-800 for a QUALITY piece.

TurtleFactory · 03-04-2013, 03:17 PM

Thank you. These will be made in America high quality. We are all car guys here and we won't sell something that we would be embarrassed to put on our own cars.

Too much lip. I would like it to follow the natural body lines of the rear fenders and taillight arch. I would be willing to pay $4-600 for a painted fiberglass trunk like this.

TurtleFactory · 03-04-2013, 04:23 PM

Thank you for the great feedback so far. I think you will all be very happy with the final product!

It is an epoxy resin.

according to me this is not lookin so cool. i think this spoiler suits to the gentle curves of gt86 but it resembles of duck beak or tail

as you have mentioned already. in any case, this design is better than huge spoilers which are looking bigger than beautiful gt86. ( sorry for my english though)
