Custom FG duckbill spoiler questions
Has anyone on here ever done any custom work? I searched and can't really find any... hand crafting a spoiler with some spray foam and then making a plug for a FG mold isn't really all that complicated if you have some time and you've worked with it before.
I think that the sedans are really lacking in the back end, and i love the look of the carbon signal duckbill style spoiler, but was thinking of something a little bigger... I just came from an e46 bimmer and was always in love with the CSL rears, which has some similarities....
opinions on doing something similar?

A company made it out of carbon fiber. They scratched the mold though so it no longer exists

If you're interested in buying one, contact r1 autoworks on here or on g35driver. I got my trunk lid from them and get tons of compliments on it.

Fitment is very good. I had to take off the stock trunk lid dampers because this trunk is so much lighter and it was pushing up on the carbon fiber.
