what year is this $100 CL? If it is a 97 I hope you did the brake rotor conversion. If it is a 98 good luck finding some good wheels to really fill that wheel well with it slammed.

looks like they took off the spoiler and filled in the holes and then taped it up and shot it with primer

Wow. nice drop, but you still need to pull those fenders out and put on some wheel spacers! Personally, I think our cars look ridiculous without the wing.

just get a Carbon Fiber one. If you get a used one, it will cost as much to restore it then it would to buy a CF one. After my accident I found at a local dealer for $400 grade A by VIS.
