could you see doing some roof spoilers too? :rolleyes:

I couldn't do ones like mine for less than $500 in primer. CF wrapped would be more. No one would buy them at that price, which is why I didn't bother with a mold.

I want that roof spoiler in CF (or non I really don't care haha) but I definitely want a carbon fiber hood, carbon fiber trim pieces for under the headlights (without wiper holes), sideview mirror caps, and eyelids.

That's not really a roof spoiler, that's just a wagon spoiler bolted to the roof.

How much could you do a front lip for? (like the ones gemini used to sell)

Didn't you order one from Chuck like 6 months ago?

He decided he didnt like the design and said he wants to make an entire bumper b/c it will be more stable. I'm not really interested in that. Regardless of the stability or sturdiness of the old design, I like it.

Looks like they made little fiberglass mounting points for it, but otherwise it's mostly an 855 wing. You can't miss that classic hoop-sticking-a-mile-out-from-the-car look that only comes from an 855 wing on an 854.

If you think that looks good, drop your headliner, bolt a wagon wing to your roof, and call it a day.

If you don't modify the ends it won't look exactly like that. Search for some of the threads about Valakra and you'll see the Swedish guys running the unmodified ones.

Personally, I don't like the look which is why I have the wing I have, but if you like it then more power to you. BTW, I don't know of anyone else state-side who's running the 855 wing on their 854 so you might be the 'first.'
