Default The Offical STARTECH Rear Wing Replica Thread...

As of right now I'm currently building a mold and playing around with a prototype to get the best results...just like many other members on here im frustrated with the lack of styling and performance parts for our cars...I'm just taking a consensus of forum members who would be seriously interested in a replica of a Startech rear wing...I will be posting pics of my progress and it mounting to my car to show you the fitment, if i get a prototype complete by this weekend, I want to make it the best quality possible I kind of have OCD haha i will also work out a price that is reasonable and affordable but this will take sometime and craftsmanship so it's not gonna be cheap...i will maybe start taking deposits / paid in full orders and starting an order of 10 just like the carbon fiber hoods and other group buys of past threads on here...for those who dont know what it looks like here's an example...these are rare only maybe 5 members on here have them...post your opinion either way I want to hear your feedback thanx for you time...

Waaaahhhhh! Wahhhhhh! There you go again, looking for Dom Perignon on a beer budget. He hasn't mentioned a price and you're already trying to talk the price down. Why does this sound familiar?

Loser.

You know me.. gotta give a couple of you a hard time! Would love to see them come in under a couple hundred.. but it is what it is and will have to see where it tally's up in the end.

Oh.. and actually I was just saving some newbie from being screwed over by you.. which was your intent at your new price for used intake. "We" regular members do that.. maybe try it sometime instead of being an A$$hole?
Oh...saving your pennies for the mid (or late) life crisis mobile?! Got it. Gonna throw some LED's on that bad boy? Awesome! That car is a hideous piece of old ****, just like the potential buyer.

And you can ****-block (i.e., tamper) my sales all you want, "regulars" (like me, for instance) on the site know that I'm not over-pricing anything, and if newbs want to believe you, that's their loss and stupidity to live with. And I'm sure tampering with sales on this site is a violation that you've already admitted to.

And my apologies to the OP for jacking up your thread, but this old miserable ******* keeps sneaking pot-shots at me in his posts and I refuse to let that go.

The coupe and roadster wings are different. N/As are available in coupe and roadster platforms.
