Carbon Fiber Trunks-

Ok, I'm looking into getting a spoiler since I have the non spoiler trunk... but I'm deciding if I should just get a CF trunk with a spoiler? Anyone got any pics of the CF trunks that are currently out? or heard any rumors of anymore coming out soon?

Don' have pics but I know Siebon has a CF trunk and there's another one (forgot who) that comes w/ a more aggressive looking (built into the mold) Lip Spoiler. I think either one would look sweet on you BO Coupe.

From what I have seen the CF spoiler is a bitch to install. The trunk seems to have no install/fitment issues.

Yeah, the Seibon trunk did not fit well for me. The spoiler was also twisted from the factory, which meant using 3M tape to put it down (keep in mind stock spoilers have 3 bolts, 2 clips, and 3M tape to hold it down) would not work well. In the heat the 3M tape would have lost grip and the spoiler may come off.

Also, you would have to buy a 3rd brake light to fit in the gap that the spoiler makes and even that doesnt fit well! See pics:

Yeah sorry, Seibon often has fitment issues. I was refering to the Mastergrade trunk.
