I wouldn't want to bug my dad to buy me an srt because I had that chance already. I was thinking... if there is a way to somehow shut off the power to the spoiler where it won't work anymore, and replace that area with an srt spoiler. But, it's not like there's Srt spoilers just laying around for me to buy. That's why I don't know if what I want to do is possible or not. I'm not one to f up a car, so if this sounds bad... please tell me. Thaaanks. =)
Kinkee, everybody has an opinion about the two spoilers, and it simply boils down to what you like, or want.
Personally, I like them both. But if I ever decided to change mine, I would probably try to purchase a complete hatch assembly from a wrecked SRT6.
If you get in touch with LKQ (one of the largest salvage companies in the U.S.) they might be able to locate one for you. But you may have better luck, if you find a reputable body shop to do the "salvage yard shopping" for you, since LKQ caters to body shops, and insurance companies mostly. Or simply watch EBAY. Or check with any local salvage yards in your area that specialize in sports cars. Any body shop could swap them in no time, but of course it will need to be painted since no SRT's came in white.
By purchasing a complete hatch from a wrecked car, you can keep your present hatch assembly in "original" condition. Then if you ever change your mind, or want to sell your car, you can always put it back to the way the factory built it. And that could be a BIG selling point.
Plus, you could then EBAY the hatch that you removed, and possible get alot (if not most) of your money back.
Good Luck.
