It's probably the angle he took the pic, making it look so big. IMO.

How did you do it, rather, what process did you use to install it?

For a low profile spoiler it looks great! but $380 unpainted? I would resent paying that and having to advertise the mugen name. Are you able to remove the name of the spoiler?

Ya the badge comes in the hardware bag...i like the badge tho...if you look at the spoiler and the way it follows both of the body lines perfectly you would agree its worth the money considering the factory one is a bit more expensive. its like buying Volks instead of cheap knock offs....quality sir.

the 3m tape is a problem and setting it correct the first time is the key.You dont want to have to pull up the 3m tape too many times because then it wont look flush with the trunk.....

Yeah...Kings does not have any left in stock and they may never carry it again. If you can reproduce this well you can make a ton of extra cash on here. People really want these and they are not available anywhere! Let us know how you make out...AND SHOW US SOME PICS!

If I could go back in time, I would have found this website before I bought my car ... I would have bought the Mugen spoiler as my first mod IN A HEARTBEAT. For it to be cheaper than the OEM spoiler ... the choice would be simple.

Pretty much, my car is done. I can't justify throwing more money into it. I'm more or less sold on my next project (when the stupid car comes out!)

Great job with the spoiler ... looks great.

lol, i dont know about reproducing multiples, but I'll see how it looks first before I offer some for sale. If i do plan to, i'll have to mold it out of clay. I'll let you all know in a month when i find the time. Heh, hopefully my education pays off on making this thing lol.

Since you did a classy job on your 2002 TL-S, I'm sure I'm not the only one who wants to know what your next project will be?
