Default Thought just struck me

Recently discovered that the Z store sells the OEM sport spoiler in carbon fiber... so has anyone thought about getting the OEM in carbon fiber and then attaching the Mine's add-on for a completely cf spoiler? Would this work or just look silly because the wing isn't one fluid piece?

Photoshop opportunity maybe?

As for adding the Mine's cf, I think it'll look GREAT! DO IT Just have to be careful about cf weave. Having two different pattern may ruin the look.

i'm not feeling the JDM clear tail lights on this ride. This car would look nasty with blacked out or even the regular red lights. I mosdef love everything else. Those carbon fiber add-ons set it off!

This would look great if you painted the top portion and left the edges/underneath CF

or someone make a FRP version similar to the mines, but a little longer for extension and pre-painted, 3M mount for $300 shipped.

That's a brilliant idea! I love the looks of the stock spoiler and the Mine's extension only builds on a great design... one of the reasons why I'm seriously considering purchasing it! If I wasn't going to be sick with my self for buying a strip of carbon fiber for $800+...

yah, maybe talk to these guys... ive bought from them in the past and their paint-match was very good. they make factory-style and some custom ones of their own.
