    I just put a e31 on mine with the led. ! think it looks great. It looks like this one except it's a little shorter. I bought it prepainted. Match was excellent.

    I will get prices from them, so this way we can get the RD front spoiler and rear deck lid spoiler... made....

    I would really like to NOT see this thread die. I have postponed installing my 'other style' wing in anticipation of the RD or ACS reproduction.

    Well, RD is located about 2 miles from my house in anaheim and has everything e31 in stock (they say) except for wheels-might give them a call...

    i really wanted the rear wing on my car but couldn't find one that looked as good as the one on the white 8. is that an e31 version? i looked into the e36 version but just wasn't quite right.

    errr, No.
    Sorry, each to his own and all that but in this case I don't think it suits the car at all.

    The Roush wing on the 8 reminds me of bosozoku cars
    (to those unaware of what those might be- http://speedhunters.com/archive/2010...zoku-meet.aspx)

    Thanks. There was quite a bit of modification needed.
    The center was cut shorter
    the angle front to back of trunk
    the bottom edge front and back of the center peice,
    and the curvature of the car for the side peices

    it does over hang the bumper a little, but no where near any thing as radicle as the bosozoku cars .

    I will get some better pics, these ones were just rushing out the door to go away for 4 days of work in Niagara Falls

    Really Tx? I can't unsee that.
