The place I got my wing from on ebay was a seller named magautoparts. I emailed the guy and he listed up a primprose wing for me. I paid like 145 shipped or something... it is the OEM boxed wing too. They come with the heavy duty trunk struts, wiring, and templates etc. Btw; not advertising for this guy, just offering some info on where I got my wing successfully from ebay.

so the spoilered cl's have heavier trunk shocks?? this is news to me as i need to find some due to the weight of having 2 layers of dynamat on the trunk.

I'd go take measurements, but I'm not sure what you want, the thing is crescent shaped after all. Also being the trunk pops open and is the "seemingly" lightest trunk lid I've ever had on a car, not sure why you'd need shocks at all...........it's torsion bars.

I think he needs the measurement from bolt hole on one side to the bolt hole on the other side. Wants to see if it will cover the holes he made for the screwup spoiler.

I ordered mine from this same eBay seller. He had different colors for different prices but he had a red one that was brand new (which all of his are) for 79 bucks shipped so I bought it and just sanded and painted it to match my car

Didn't actually notice that. When you ask for dimensions are you looking for tip to tip measurements?

My bad, thought I specified. Just width is all I need. I want to see how close the ends get to the side of the hatch.

Hey Chris! Haha I'm actually thinking about it! The only nice 3 spoilers in the Z world right now are either the OEM flushmout spoilers which are nice but everyone has them, then there's the shopping cart handle style that would be alright if it wasn't so damn high, then of course there's all those huge ghetto looking bodykit ones that looks like the CL bodykit spoilers.... If the sides are wide enough to reach the ends of the hatch then I'll try some photoshoppage and see how it looks. If it looks great then I'll probably bondo the third brake light and get it painted. There are some other sick spoiler choices I've come across but none are really wide enough to reach the sides of the hatch and as massive as I remember the CL being, that shouldn't be a problem.

Haha I remember when Mo made this thread. Post the width of that white spoiler and I'll give ya a cookie!

Oh, I just wanted to know how wide the wing was so I could see if it reaches the sides of the hatch of the Z. I don't even have it yet and not sure if it's going to work afterall. 3zc forums guys will freak out and start buying these wings if it looks as nice and subtle as I was originally thinking. They're getting nice subtle front lips from VW R32s and foglights and such from other cars.
