One that ACTUALLY looks like the GP wing; and doesn't require new glass, or relocating the 3rd brake light.

Sadly; think this is still dead.

None of my business but you did say:

"but i still have all the molds ans templates"

If a good GP type wing is made available for $500.00 and it's not stolen I would be very interested in one!

Yes, this is an incising deal if and when you and nate work out your scuffle...I would much rather give my money to nate...we talked numerous times about this and other projects he is a great guy...(BTW nate- I still have to buy gauges for that gorgeous A-pillar pod you inspired )

I think that I speak for everyone hear in that we do not like people "stealing" from friends and then making profit on us...

But, for now you are innocent until proven guilty...but, you are looking guilty...

With another GP showing up in our club, I would love to get a GP wing, any news on anything? And has anyone ever tried to fit the front bumper GP lip onto a S? They look very cool too.

Not anymore. They are selling some parts now. I bought the rear GP bumper trim, no questions asked.

If you want to buy the GP Wing, you'd have to buy the GP rear hatch as well because of the wait it's bolted on. I don't know about you, but I'm not rolling in enough money to pay that much for a wing.

http://www.outmotoring.com/mini-coop...w_spoiler.html A little off topic, but does anyone know if this is just kinda a "Stick on" spoiler!? I cant seem to find installation instructions anywhere, but I remember some one saying that basically it just uses double sided sticky tape. To me, that doesnt seem very reliable for a spoiler. Emblems,JCW grilles, badges etc sure, but w/ downforce on the spoiler, wouldn't you want to make sure its bolted on!?

Hmm....are you sure on that price? You might want to double check. There are three different part numbers for that wing, not including the rear glass. If $ 677. is the total, I would be in also These prices are from "real OEM.com".

Bracket, spoiler left 51627189309 $795.52
Bracket, spoiler right 51627189310 $795.52
SPOILER FRONT 51627182676 $747.00


REAR WINDOW GREEN 51317183251 $321.42
