I like that, looks good. Been thinking of doing it to my 00 vert but I am wondering how close they get the MY color. Anybody who has one that is MY how close is the match?

Looks Great

Looks like you did a great job of getting it "down" on the body. If you work with it, you can eliminate most of the gap producing an OE look. You did great.

I think RPI makes a great product, my AE paint was a perfect match too. Especially considering the price to your door, very hard to beat.

Nice. Subtle.


I probably would have to be a bit more aggressive and have one that stands out more.


Like the Jake too (and everything it stands for)

Default spoiler

The spoiler looks great. I want one for my mine now. Was it shipped to you painted and ready to put on or did you have it painted? I just went to RPI's site and their add said "ready to paint your color".

It came painted to match. Look at their section of Custom Painted Parts. Here is the link http://www.rpidesigns.com/shop/categ...64&sortby=name

Looks really good. As stated before, nice writeup. I'd like to see a few pics of the car from further away so I can judge the overall effect. Thanks.

Got rain coming today, but I have had a few requests for the same. I will get a few pictures tomorrow or Monday and post them along with some of the car prior to the install.

Thanks for all the positive comments.

How about a pic at the golf course? Maybe with a shot hefting the clubs over the edge?

Anyway, hit 'em straight!!! And have one of theseat the 19th hole!
